'Teen Mom' Kailyn Lowry Makes Placenta Smoothie & Art After Birth of 5th Child
Kailyn Lowry has a new baby in her life, and with it comes all the joys of motherhood ... including a post-birth beverage that's au naturel, and straight from the womb.
The 'Teen Mom' star posted an eye-popping clip on social media Monday ... showing her blending up her own placenta and pouring into a Mason jar, complete with a straw -- which was clearly ready to drink ... and we can only assume she did.
She wasn't just going to ingest her own placenta, though ... it looks like Kailyn spread it around on paper as well, showing off different art pieces she made with her uterus leftovers.
We'll say this ... the placenta Picassos aren't half bad -- and it looks like she/her fam took precautions handling it, including using gloves and other protective gear. KL writes of the whole experience ... "This was the second time I got to work with @lancasterplacentaco."
That's a company that offers placenta encapsulation services ... apparently, it's big business.
Of course, all this placenta fun comes on the heels of her announcing that she welcomed another kid -- her fifth, a son named Rio. She shares the baby with her BF, Elijah Scott ... and Kailyn revealed last week that she gave birth last year, keeping it under wraps.
Normally, Kailyn's baby news is very public -- but this time around, she says she wanted to keep it to herself and out of the spotlight. She told People, "I wanted to be able to tell my own story on my own terms and kind of share what information I wanted to share instead of being within a contractual obligation or storyline."
Kailyn has 4 other children -- 3-year-old Creed, 6-year-old Lux, 9-year-old Lincoln and 13-year-old Isaac. Her newest bundle of joy is named Rio.
As for the placenta thing ... well, it's something folks do -- especially celebrity moms.

Jenelle Evans and David Eason are possibly on the verge of being charged with child neglect -- and amid that scary reality ... here they are taking the family to a gun show.
The 'Teen Mom' star was spotted Sunday with her husband and two children hitting up an event in Wilmington, NC -- where firearms, knives and other weaponry were out on tables and up for grabs for gun enthusiasts ... the perfect place to bring your little ones.
Eyewitnesses tell us David was hanging with Jenelle's 9-year-old son, Kaiser, while she stayed near her and DE's 6-year-old daughter Ensley. The boys checked out a number of items -- knives, holsters and rifle scopes. As far as what they actually picked up -- we're told David appear to purchase a bullet-proof vest for himself, and a wooden battle ax for Kaiser.
Jenelle and Ensley were only there briefly, leaving about 20 minutes into the shopping spree -- the other child in their custody at the moment, 14-year-old Jace, was nowhere to be seen.
Jace's repeated runaway attempts have been at the center of a probe there -- where law enforcement officials are considering bringing charges against either Jenelle, David or both. In addition to Jace constantly fleeing the home, we've heard there've also been abuse claims.
As we reported ... the investigation is in the final stages, and our sources tell us criminal charges are likely. We've reached out to Jenelle and David -- but haven't heard back.
While they haven't responded to us ... Dave has telegraphed that everything's fine in the household -- recently posting a bunch of photos of him and Jace, and saying no one understands their relationship, suggesting they're close.
If that was the case, you'd figure Jace might've tagged along for this outing -- but he didn't.

Jenelle Evans and David Eason could soon be facing charges of assault and neglect in the ongoing saga with Jenelle's 14-year-old son, Jace … TMZ has learned.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... they expect they'll wrap their investigation very soon, and just interviewed Jace this past week. Our sources say at this point, it appears charges will be filed for both neglect and assault.
What hasn't yet been determined, we're told, is whether both Jenelle and David will get hit with charges ... or if only one of them will face legal repercussions.
TMZ broke the story ... cops started treating Jace's situation as a possible case of neglect after the young teen ran away from home for a third time in about a month.
Cops say Jace told officers David had assaulted him and appeared to have visible marks on his neck and arm, making the investigation that much more serious. What's more, we’re told there's video of the alleged assault and cops have it in their possession.
David Eason is Jace's stepdad … Jenelle regained custody of the 14-year-old from her mother, Barbara, earlier this year. Barbara had stepped in years ago to take custody of Jace after Jenelle was unable to properly care for her son.
We reached out to Jenelle and David for comment ... so far, no word back.

El marido de Jenelle Evans —David Eason— dice que la relación que tiene con el hijo de Jenelle —Jace— es algo que nadie más entiende, y comparte fotos juntos luego de supuestamente lastimarlo.
David subió fotos el miércoles de él pasando el rato con Jace (de 14 años), dando paseos en moto, jugando al baloncesto, saliendo de pesca y jugando al billar.
Agregó el siguiente mensaje en las fotos: "¡Nadie entiende nuestra relación y eso está bien porque no lo necesitan!".
TMZ publicó la historia, David y Jenelle están actualmente bajo investigación por negligencia infantil después de que Jace fue reportado como desaparecido la semana pasada. Lo encontraron poco después, pero ya había desaparecido otras dos veces antes de eso.
Jenelle lo atribuyó a Jace ser un adolescente rebelde, pero fuentes directas nos informan que están siendo investigados porque Jace supuestamente le dijo a la policía que David lo agredió.
Nos dijeron que Jace fue encontrado con marcas visibles en el cuello y el brazo. El presunto ataque se cree que han sido capturados en una cámara de seguridad. El material está ahora en posesión de la policía.
David también habló sobre las acusaciones de abuso, diciendo: "Los informes policiales han sido falsificados y la verdad ya es evidente para todos los involucrados".
'Teen Mom' David Eason Scoffs at Abuse Allegations ... Jace and I Have Tons of Fun
Jenelle Evans' husband, David Eason, says the relationship he has with Jenelle's son, Jace, is something no one gets ... sharing photos of the 2 of them together after allegedly abusing him.
David uploaded snaps Wednesday of him hanging out with 14-year-old Jace -- doing things together like fixing up dirt bikes, playing basketball, catching fish, and shooting pool.
He captioned the photos, "Nobody understands our relationship and that's fine because they don't need to!"
TMZ broke the story, David and Jenelle are currently under investigation for child neglect after Jace was reported missing last week -- he was found soon after, but he had already gone missing 2 other times before that.
Jenelle chalked it up to Jace being a rebellious teen, but sources with direct knowledge told us they're being investigated because Jace allegedly told cops David assaulted him.
We were told Jace was found with visible marks on his neck and arm, and the alleged assault is believed to have been captured on a Ring camera -- the footage is now in the possession of police and CPS.
BTW, David also talked about the abuse allegations, saying, "Police reports have been falsified and the truth is already apparent to everyone involved."

Ex-"Teen Mom" star Jenelle Evans' oldest son has disappeared one too many times for authorities not to investigate the adults in his home -- which we're told they're now officially doing.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Jenelle and her husband, David Eason, are currently under investigation for child neglect after 14-year-old Jace's latest disappearance.
Remember, he was reported as a missing person last week ... and, thankfully, he was found soon after. However, he'd reportedly already gone missing twice before that -- something Jenelle has attributed to him just being a rebellious teen.
Sources with direct knowledge tell us it could be much more serious than that ... and the reason Jenelle and David are in investigators' crosshairs is because Jace apparently told cops David allegedly assaulted him.
We're told that after this most recent fleeing attempt ... the kid was found to have visible marks on his neck and arm. Our sources also say the alleged assault is believed to have gone down at someone else's home, and there's Ring camera footage that police and CPS now have in their possession.
Of course, if there's any evidence of physical abuse ... the current investigation could lead to serious charges. For the time being, though, it's just an investigation for child neglect.
Jenelle had Jace with her first baby daddy, Andrew Lewis ... but we're told she has primary custody -- and has for years now. Some have questioned whether that should remain the case, amid all these troubling developments.
We've reached out to Jenelle and David for comment ... so far, no word back.

JENELLE EVANS Y DAVID EASON PAREJA DE "TEEN MOM" SOSPECHOSA DE NEGLIGENCIA INFANTIL Tras la última fuga de Jace
El hijo mayor de Jenelle Evans ha desaparecido demasiadas veces como para que las autoridades no investiguen a los adultos en el hogar.
Fuentes policiales le informan a TMZ que Jenelle y su marido, David Eason, están actualmente bajo investigación por negligencia infantil después de la última desaparición de Jace, de 14 años.
Recordemos que fue reportado como desaparecido la semana pasada, y afortunadamente fue encontrado poco después. Sin embargo, según los informes, ya había desaparecido dos veces antes de eso; algo que Jenelle ha atribuido a la idea de que solo es un adolescente rebelde.
Fuentes directas nos dicen que podría ser mucho más grave que eso. Jenelle y David están en la mira de los investigadores porque Jace aparentemente le dijo a la policía que David lo había agredido.
Nos informaron que en este reciente intento de huida se encontró que el chico tenía marcas visibles en el cuello y el brazo. Nuestras fuentes también dicen que todo ocurrió en la casa de alguien más, y que incluso hay imágenes capturadas por la cámara de la entrada de la casa donde se podría ver actividad policial.
Si hay alguna evidencia de abuso físico, la investigación podría dar lugar a cargos graves. Sin embargo, nuestras fuentes dicen que esto es solo una investigación por negligencia infantil por el momento.
Jenelle tenía a Jace con el primer papá del bebé, Andrew Lewis, pero nos informan que tiene la custodia primaria hace años. Algunos han cuestionado si eso sigue así luego tantos los acontecimientos preocupantes.
Nos hemos puesto en contacto con Jenelle y David, pero hasta ahora no hay respuesta.

La policía está tras la pista del hijo de 14 años de Jenelle Evans, Jace, después de que el adolescente supuestamente se escapara por una ventana en la noche.
Fuentes policiales dicen a TMZ que fueron llamados a la casa de la estrella de "Teen Mom" el jueves alrededor de las 8 PM. Jenelle le dijo a los oficiales que Jace se escabulló de la casa a través de una ventana y que no llevaba su celular con él.
Lo más aterrador es que la casa de Jenelle está rodeada de bosques y Jace se fue en la noche.
Han pasado cerca de 16 horas desde que Jace desapareció por primera vez, y todavía está afuera en algún lugar. Los policías nos dicen que ha sido añadido a una base de datos nacional de personas desaparecidas.
La fuga del jueves no es la primera vez que Jace desaparece. TMZ dio la noticia a principios de agosto cuando Jace desapareció después de la escuela y fue encontrado unas horas más tarde. También fuimos los primeros en contarles cuando desapareció de la casa de Jenelle a finales de agosto y localizado un poco después de eso también.

Jenelle Evans' first husband suffered an apparent overdose at his home in North Carolina ... and his wife's frantic call to dispatchers is chilling.
TMZ obtained audio of the 911 call Courtland Rogers' wife placed Aug. 28 from their home in Wilmington, and she says Courtland is showing signs of an overdose ... describing him as being naked on the toilet while making concerning gurgling sounds.
Courtland's wife says he locked himself in the bathroom while she was out of the house with their kids ... but she broke down the door to find him unresponsive.
The dispatcher tells Courtland's wife to try getting him off the toilet, and lay him flat on his back on the floor, but he's too heavy for her to move and she resorts to trying CPR.
As Courtland's wife desperately tries to revive him, she screams for him to wake up ... and tells the dispatcher she's unsure what drugs he took and there's no Narcan available to resuscitate him.
Ultimately, paramedics arrive ... and that's when the call stops.
Our law enforcement sources say Courtland survived, and no drugs or paraphernalia were found on scene when authorities arrived.
Courtland -- who was married to the former "Teen Mom" star from 2012 to 2014 -- has been open in the past about his drug abuse ... estimating he's overdosed 5 times, and admitting heroin's ruined his life.

Barbara Evans is concerned for the well-being of her grandson -- who she had custody of for more than a decade -- and believes Jenelle Evans' decision to take him off ADHD meds might have led to his runaway incident.
Barbara tells TMZ 14-year-old Jace was put on the medication 7 years ago, and was regularly seeing a behavior specialist ... which had seemingly been working well for the teen.
However, Barbara says when Jenelle regained custody of Jace, back in March, Jenelle not only took him off the medication, but also ended his sessions with the behaviorist.
Jenelle denies part of Barbara's claim though, telling us, "Barbara has not been in contact with Jace since Monday. I have cut off contact with her as of 3 weeks ago. Barbara doesn't have any idea what is going on inside my home. Jace had a therapist appointment today on zoom at 10:30am … she hasn't even attempted to speak to Jace directly."
It's not clear if Jenelle booked the therapist appointment as a result of Jace's runaway, or if it was already planned.
TMZ broke the story, cops in North Carolina put out a runaway bulletin Tuesday for Jace after he took off from school. Luckily, he was found safe hours later, but the situation was scary for all involved.
Jenelle told us, "Jace, got in trouble at school, we decided to take his phone away and that's when he decided to run off, Jace is a good kid and we're not dealing with anything that most families don't deal with while raising children."
Barbara says Jenelle's not talking to her, so she doesn't have any more info about why her grandson ran off -- but she squarely blames his issues at school on the lack of medication and therapy.
What's more, Barbara says she isn't looking to regain custody of Jace, as she's getting older and his behavior is too much for her to handle ... she just wants to make sure what happened Tuesday doesn't happen again.

Unclear what happened to cause Jace to run away, but we spoke to Jenelle's mom, Barbara, who tells she had a conversation with him Monday night and he seemed totally fine.
Barbara says she also reached out to Jenelle earlier Tuesday to see how she was doing -- Jenelle's been publicly feuding with her husband, David Eason -- but Jenelle allegedly told Barbara she didn't want to talk and to leave her alone.
It was back in March when Jenelle got full custody of Jace from her mother, Barbara. Barbara got custody of Jace when he was much younger and Jenelle was unable to support him on her own -- with personal and legal issues.

TMZ obtained audio of the 911 call Griffith's sister placed on July 12 in Las Vegas ... and in her chat with the dispatcher, the woman says Nathan tried to strangle her before fleeing in his car.
As we first reported ... the police report says the responding officers observed visible red marks on the sister's neck and eyelids -- indicative of someone who was strangled -- and she told them Nathan grabbed her by the throat, pushed her down onto the floor and got on top of her.
Despite telling the dispatcher her brother had left, police say Nathan was still outside the home when they arrived ... yelling and denying he ever touched his sister. Ultimately, he was arrested for battery by strangulation.
