Teen Mom Catelynn Lowell claims she’s ‘missing out on getting to know’ daughter Carly 12 years after her adoption
TEEN Mom Catelynn Lowell claimed she's "missing out on getting to know" her daughter, Carly, 12 years after her adoption.
The reality TV star and her husband, Tyler Baltierra, are currently expecting their fourth child together.
says in a voiceover: "We've been trying to get pregnant so we can't help but think of our first daughter, Carly, who we placed for adoption.
"Because of , we haven't seen her in two years so I feel like we're missing out on getting to know her.
As they sat together, the three of them talked about how, even after knowing they made the right decision, Tyler and Catelynn struggled with the guilt and said they sometimes wished they hadn't gone through with the adoption.
She told : "When I am older and Carly is in her 20s or 30s, I'm blessed to be able to have a copy of my 16 and Pregnant episode that I can show her to."
She told : "[She and Tyler] didn’t see [Carly] [in 2020] at all because of the pandemic.
"Like nobody was, you know, flying anywhere, going anywhere. So yeah. That never happened. That didn’t happen this year."
"That would be crazy. We know that we made the right decision. We don't ever second guess that decision at all."
She added of how the adoption impacted her relationship with her husband, Tyler, 29: "Honestly, we both really do agree that if we would have parented her at the age of 17 - with everything that we went through as fiancés, as boyfriend and girlfriend, as married people together - we don't really think honestly that we would be together."
She added: "If you throw a child in the mix, mental health stuff, addiction stuff, relationship stuff, it makes it 20 times harder so we never regret that decision at all because we just look at what she has now and we know we did the right thing."
