Finally, Taylor’s boyfriend Noah tested positive for Covid so they were unsure how it would work with her being induced. She was fine until she got to the hospital and discovered she was positive, as well. Now she must deliver this baby under less than desirable circumstances.

Jason And Kylen Return To Unexpected

After getting removed from the hospital for poor behavior, Jason was able to watch his son’s birth. Yet the couple was not on last week. Now, a shirtless Jason is raging against the hospital as they leave. He clearly hates that place that they just spent forty-eight hours in after Xavier was born. A security guard sat outside the room the entire time and they feel it was due to what happened during the birth. Kylen says that behavior is not who they really are and Jason notes it was because of the epidural. It just pushed him beyond a certain point as he felt betrayed and heartbroken. She wants to forget about that now that it is about their son, not them.

Jason claims he drove like an adult when he had their son in the car. The moment they get home to Jason’s parents’ house, he is getting the car seat out of the car. He immediately starts getting mad at Kylen, claiming she is on it so that is the issue. In his parents’ confessional, they claim that they thought birth was a happy thing. His mom tries to say car seats are tricky but they need to stop pacifying him. He is still in a bad mood but they help Kylen inside.

Taylor’s Covid Delivery, Lilly’s Wedding Plans

She has gotten her Pitocin three hours after arriving at the hospital and wants it to happen fast. Taylor is mostly concerned about her symptoms getting worse. Plus, she wants the epidural in time so she is making sure that the nurses will be checking her as much as possible. Noah was not there for the birth of their first child and luckily, he can be there this time so he is asking a lot of questions. Her mother, Candice hates that she cannot be there but is hopeful Noah will step up and be the best support. Noah is watching Taylor in labor and he notes that could never be him at all. He also knows how hard Covid was for him so adding labor to that would be a mess.

Kylen says he has been throwing up a lot so he should not do that. Jason then calls his mom into the room and she tells him he needs to have money in order to buy the formula. Kylen tells explains using the canned formula is cheaper and his mom encourages them to go on WIC, which will help out some. He snaps and asks if she is going to get the formula so she wants his card for it, reminding him that it is expensive and goes fast. Jason’s dad admits their relationship with him is very volatile and they are exhausted by it. As Jason is holding Xavier, Kylen is begging to hold him.

Gimme Gimme Gimme

Jason will not hand over Xavier but he keeps demanding things of Kylen. He wants a new shirt or a swaddle because they smell gross. She tells him they do not have any clean ones so she walks away. Kylen admits it’s stressful to be teen parents and they take it out on each other. Jason says he has major trust issues because they had a birth plan. Then she did not include him in any decision that she made. He said he will never forgive or forget that as he almost did not see the birth of his baby.
