River – who shares a father, David, with Catelynn – shot back at the news on his Instagram Story.
He wrote: "Lol my sister got pregnant AGAIN to try and stay relevant."
River – who stays out of the spotlight – is paralyzed and wheelchair bound.
Catelynn's parents, April and David, split when she was three and went on to have children with different partners.
She announced her pregnancy by sharing a photo of her daughters holding a card that revealed they were 27 weeks away from becoming big sisters.
"This rainbow was worth the storm. Baby Baltierra coming soon," the mom wrote.
Catelynn also posted a sonogram, which revealed she was due in August, and a picture of a positive pregnancy test.
She announced in a gender reveal that she and Tyler are expecting a baby girl.
Catelynn shares three daughters with Tyler: 11-year-old Carly, whom they gave up for adoption, 6-year-old Novalee, and 2-year-old Vaeda.
The reality TV star confirmed the news to Celebuzz as well and said she was shocked that she got pregnant just one month after miscarrying.
She revealed: "I was definitely surprised that we got pregnant so fast with this baby! But we are so excited."
The Teen Mom star also talked about how when she first told Tyler, he wouldn't believe her.
"I just handed him the positive test,” Catelynn said, adding that Tyler didn't believe the news until Catelynn “missed [her] period and took another test that was positive.”
Fortunately, fans will get to see Catelynn and Tyler find out they're expecting their fourth child on this season of Teen Mom OG.
“[We] waited until I was further along to even mention it on the show,” she revealed.

“I am sharing this to let you know you are not alone.
“We are all in this together and everyone experiences pain, loss, and the recovery from it and I am still in the thick of dealing with this loss as it was recent and all the emotional trauma that follows such a loss in an already horrifically hard year.”
During an emotional episode of the popular reality show in 2018, Tyler opened up for the first time about the “trauma” from their past miscarriage.
He recalled: “When you see her shaking and she’s got blood everywhere, it’s llike, you don’t really know what to do.
“She kind of cleaned herself up, and we kind of figured out what was going on.
“So we just saw on the bed and cried. We just held each other. There’s nothing you can really do.”
