LIFETIME DEBUTS NEW ONE-HOUR SPECIAL ON OCTOBER 2nd

"13 SONS & PREGNANT"

DOCUMENTING THE SCHWANDT FAMILY'S COUNTDOWN TO THE BIRTH AND GENDER REVEAL OF THEIR 14th BABY

Michigan couple Kateri and Jay Schwandt are the parents of 13 children, all boys, ranging in ages from 25 to two years old. With Kateri pregnant once again, they are keeping with the family tradition of waiting until the birth to find out the sex of the baby. As they prepare for their new arrival, chaos ensues as only it can when you have 13 boys, all at different stages in their lives, to watch over and be there for. With all that is going on around them, Kateri and Jay are making sure to do their best to relish each and every moment of this pregnancy, as it may be their last. But a big question remains, will number 14 be another son... or their first daughter? 13 Sons & Pregnant documents the family's final days as they countdown to the big reveal. The one-hour special will premiere Tuesday, October 2 at 10:30pm, ET/PT on Lifetime during our Real Love programming block.

13 Sons & Pregnant is produced for Lifetime by Atlas Media Corp. Bruce David Klein and Paulina Williams are executive producers for Atlas Media Corp. Executive producers for Lifetime are Gena McCarthy, Brie Miranda Bryant and Shura Davison.
