As OK! previously reported, on the January 26 episode of Lowry’s "Barely Famous" podcast, the Teen Mom 2 alum revealed that after welcoming twins five weeks premature, the babies had to stay in the NICU for "a couple of weeks."

"I cried a lot. I probably cried more with the NICU journey than the C-section stuff," the 31-year-old confessed.

In addition to the stress from this situation, Lowry had five kids to take care of at home.

"She was away from her twin; we were away from her. When we were home, we still couldn't process it because there was so much going on here," she said. "Lincoln still had his basketball games and practices. Isaac still had his after-school stuff. Lux still had what he was doing."
