She’s OK With It

“Everything happens for a reason so (shrug emoji)” she wrote. “And thank you!” But wait … how could Kayla get pregnant if she was on birth control? Turns out, it’s a situation that could happen to anyone.

Be Careful, Ladies!

When a fan asked her to explain how it happened, she issued this warning: “Ladies! If you are on the pill and you get sick with the stomach flu or any other sickness that causes you to throw up, YOUR PILL IS NO LONGER ACTIVE!”

Good to Know!

“If you throw up within two hours of taking it, it didn’t have enough time to absorb into your body. You’re literally throwing up your birth control.” Yikes, that’s definitely a lesson learned the hard way!

Why She Won’t Use More ~Reliable~ Birth Control

After the mishap, fans are wondering why she didn’t try something more consistent. “Girl, get on the depo shot. I’ve been on it for years and I love it!” said one fan. Unfortunately, it just isn’t an option for Kayla.

The Real Reason

“Right after I had Zay, I got on the depo shot!” she revealed. “Unfortunately I got sick from it so went on the pill. After this baby I will be trying the IUD implant!”

Daddy Duty

Kayla’s boyfriend Luke has already proved he’ll be an amazing father, since he’s such a loving stepdad to her son Izaiah. Thank goodness, because his real dad has been MIA.

So Sad

When a fan asked how Kayla’s current relationship with her ex Stephan is, she made it clear that things aren’t good. “We don’t have one. He hasn’t seen Zay since November. Not doing any more Stephan questions.” Clearly, he’s a sore spot for Kayla.

So Cute!

She already has a few cute monikers on deck. “For a girl I like Bria or Aubree. No clue for a boy because Luke is stuck on Luke IV,” she said, with an eye-roll emoji. Hey, he can’t break the streak after three!
