"Is she going through some kind of post-partum?" Baltierra's concerned mother asked in the clip, as Lowell curled up in bed.

Last year, Lowell opened up about a previous battle with depression and anxiety when she was 21.

"I started having severe panic and anxiety attacks in the middle of the night, which led me into a deep depression," she said. "I couldn't stop crying. I felt I'd be better off dead. I needed help."
