Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra are nothing if not honest with each other.
The Teen Mom stars have been together for years and years and are as candid with their feelings as any famous couple we can think of.
Heck, Tyler told Catelynn a few months ago that he wanted to live apart from her for 30 days — WHILE SHE WAS PREGNANT! — because he just needed some space…
… and their marriage has only thrived as a result of this admission.
What does this have to do with what Catelynn just told Us Weekly?
The veteran MTV personality explained to the tabloid that she and her husband have already had a discussion about something very personal.
What is it? And what does it have to do with growing their adorable family? Scroll down to find out!
Catelynn and Tyler are Parents to a Pair of Girls
They have a four-year old named Nova and they welcomed a daughter named Vaeda into the world just this past February.
They’ve Actually Had 3 Kids, However
Back in 2009, the couple decided it was too young to raise a child and gave a girl named Carly up for adoption.
Catelynn Also Suffered a Miscarriage in Early 2018
These two really have been through a lot, especially as it pertains to kids and pregnancy.
Could More Be on the Way, However?
Yes, Catelynn has told Us Weekly in a revealing new interview.
A Boy Would Be Nice
“We would love to have a boy one day,” Lowell tells this tabloid, adding that she and Tyler will probably wait until their second daughter turns 2 before they really commit to this plan.
But Will They KEEP Trying?
No. “If we’re meant to just have girls, I guess that’s what we were meant to have! I’m not going to have like, six, or seven kids – no thank you,” Catelynn laughed.
She Ain’t a Duggar!
“I feel like I’m already going gray with two!” Catelynn added in this interview.
Tyler and Catelynn are Both 27
Why does this matter? Because there’s a clock on Catelynn’s womb, basically.
This Clock is Ticking
“By the time we’re 30, we’re done. He’s getting fixed, that’s it,” Catelynn says, stating emphatically that Tyler will be getting a vasectomy.
So That Means They’ll Only Have One More Kid, Right?
We’re just doing math here, based on their age and their plan to wait until Vaeda turns two before they even start trying.
Tyler is Totally on Board
“I already told him. I said, ‘I carried all three of your kids and birthed them and pushed them out of me, you’re getting snipped, sorry!’”
Does He Understand?
“He’s OK with that! He’s like, ‘Yeah you’re right, you did carry all my kids and have to go through labor, so. [I’ve] got no choice!'” Catelynn confirms.
Catelynn Has Changed Her Mind a Bit on This Topic
“Tyler and I both want a boy, so we’re definitely gonna try again,” Catelynn told fans in an Instagram Q&A session mere weeks before Vaeda’s was born.
Let’s Just Do This!
“I think we’re just gonna go right for No. 4 right after this one’s born,” Catelynn said back then. “We wanna be done before we’re 30, you know?”
How’s the Marriage by the Way?
“We’re living in the same place, we did couple’s therapy together and therapy on ourselves as individuals, which I think helped a lot,” Catelynn recently also told Us Weekly. “We were just honest with ourselves and with each other during that time.”
That’s So Great!
Catelynn adds that the two are simply “in a good place” these days.
Meant To Be
“Tyler and I just click,” Catelynn added to Us Weekly, saying of she and her husband: “We’re really opposite, but we have a lot of similarities… I feel like some people are just meant to be with one another and I really just feel like that’s him and I; we just really bond and click and connect.”
These Guys are the Best
Even during troubled marital times, Tyler and Catelynn have stood up for each other.
For Instance?
“The unnecessary mean & disturbing comments made about my beautiful wife, really just breaks my heart to be honest,” Tyler wrote on Instagram recently after some trolls said some cruel stuff about Catelynn.
Not Angry. Just Injured.
“It doesn’t make me angry…it literally just rips my heart to pieces,” Tyler added. “After 11 years of this brave woman vulnerably showing her struggles & the most painful moments she will EVER experience in life, for the world to see, she does NOT DESERVE such cruelty.”
I Love Her So Much!
“She is the most courageous, loving, & beautiful human being I have ever met,” Tyler said at this time. “And if you can’t see those things, then please just scroll on, there is NO NEED FOR HATE!”
PLEASE!
“So PLEASE, everyone pay attention…we just HAVE to be better at loving each other as co-existing human beings,” Baltierra went on. “We HAVE to be better at lifting each other up & showing people the love that everyone deserves to feel.”
And He Concluded
“What I see here is a gorgeous woman, both inside & out, who I am lucky enough to call my wife!”
