‘Teen Mom 2’ star Kailyn Lowry has welcomed twin boys, Elijah and Scott, making her now a mother of 7 children. The 31-year-old gave birth on January 19th after keeping her pregnancy private for the most part.
Background on Kailyn’s Previous Pregnancies
Kailyn has come a long way from her early days on ‘Teen Mom 2’ over 10 years ago. She was first introduced to audiences in 2010 when she was pregnant at 17 with her oldest son Isaac, now 14, who she shares with ex-boyfriend Jo Rivera.
She then had son Lincoln, now 10, with her ex-husband Javi Marroquin in 2013. After divorcing Javi in 2017, Kailyn had two more sons – Lux, now 7, with Chris Lopez, and 1-year-old Creed, also with Chris.
While she has been open about her past pregnancies, Kailyn kept her twin pregnancy very private this time, not announcing it publicly. Sources say she feared judgment for having multiple children with multiple partners.
Details of the Twin Birth
On January 19th, 2023, Kailyn gave birth to healthy twin boys named Elijah and Scott. The birth came a few weeks early, but mother and babies are reportedly doing well.
Kailyn said the twin birth was the most difficult of all her deliveries:
“I was terrified I would have them in the car or something. I cried because I was afraid and overwhelmed.”
The twins were born by C-section. Kailyn’s friend Mark Allen was by her side for support during the delivery at a Delaware hospital.
Kailyn is thrilled to add two more boys to her family. “I can’t wait for the chaos,” she said. “It will be crazy but so worth it.”
What Led to the Pregnancy
Last March, Kailyn first hinted at the possibility of having more children, saying she would consider using a sperm donor or adoption.
By July, rumors started circulating that she was pregnant again after she was spotted leaving an ultrasound appointment. At the time she denied the speculation.
In August however, Kailyn seemed to confirm she was expecting when she said:
“I don’t know if I’ll ever have more children because I don’t know if this will work out for me health wise.”
Kailyn suffered hyperemesis gravidarum, an extreme form of morning sickness, during her pregnancy like she did with son Lux.
“I lost about 10 pounds in my first trimester. I was nauseous 24/7 and vomiting every day,” she shared.
It’s speculated her friend Chris may be the father again, but she has not publicly confirmed who the twins’ father is.
What’s Next for Kailyn
Kailyn has made it clear this will be the end of her baby journey – she had her tubes tied right after the twin delivery.
”Seven kids is enough! My family is complete,” she declared.
For now, she is focused on recovering and adjusting the family to their two latest additions. Her hands will certainly be full with seven kids ages 1 to 14!
Kailyn also plans to buy a new house in the coming months to better accommodate her large family.
As for her role on ‘Teen Mom 2’, Kailyn announced last year she would be stepping back from the show after over a decade on air. But fans may still catch glimpses of her new life as a mom of seven through her popular podcast.
Stay tuned for the first baby photos! Kailyn says she can’t wait to show off her twin boys soon.
