Whether Jamie Lynn Spears is three months pregnant, as she claims, or six months pregnant, as preached by The National Enquirer, childbearing has proven a difficult feat for the sixteen year old. Jamie Lynn’s first trimester has been marked by illness and the fear of miscarriage.

“She lost weight because she was throwing up so much from morning sickness,” says a National Enquirer source.

“Early in her pregnancy, Jamie Lynn had so much cramping and bleeding that her mother believed she’d lost the baby. But she hadn’t.”
