Amber Portwood is free again....at least for now.
The troubled Teen Mom star was sprung Friday from the Madison County, Indiana jail where she'd spent the previous week.
As RadarOnline.com reported, Amber was thrown in jail after a judge determined she'd lied about why she missed a court-ordered drug test.

"She had surgery, and basically she was on bed rest for a couple of days," Amber's mother, Tonya Portwood, told us exclusively.
Well, that wasn't quite so, prosecutors determined, and they arrested her.
Her release on Friday came with no bail. But if Amber misses any more of her drug tests, she risks being dismissed from the court's drug aversion program and being sent to jail for up to five years.

Tuesday night’s episode of MTV’s 16 & Pregnant did not disappoint. This week’s story followed a cheerleader named Leah from West Virginia who was pregnant with twins. Leah only dated the father, Corey, for a month before she found out she was expecting. Unfortunately, the couple’s road did not lead towards a happy ending.

“It’s going to be rough, after one fun night in my truck,” Corey said, summing up the situation in his very unique way. Though they hadn’t quite figured out the logistics of their living situation, they had already named their new additions: Aliannah and Aleeah.

As expected, their parents were shocked and Corey and Leah mused over the things they’ve had to give up (cheerleading for her), whether they were made for one another (Leah still reminisced about her ex-boyfriend) and how they could make ends meet. Still, there were some sweet moments like when Corey and Leah laughed through an awkward moment when she peed in her pants.

The couple had their first serious scare six months into the pregnancy when Leah started having contractions. Three days later, the doctors found a solution besides delivering the babies early but then ordered her to bed rest. Despite the happy news (and a new apartment!) the couple’s financial situation kept a steady strain on their daily lives.
Six weeks from her pregnancy, Leah’s water broke during a sleepover with her mom that was supposed to help clear her head and give her rest. Corey proved an able partner, staying with Leah through the entire operation which delivered the two bouncing baby girls who were born a minute apart. Three days later she was discharged from the hospital but had to leave the babies behind in intensive care. “Now I’m just walking out with balloons,” Leah said through tears as they sat in Corey’s truck after leaving the hospital.

Weeks later Leah was headed back to school, which incited Corey’s concern about her priorities and her ex-boyfriend who still hung out with her circle of friends. After a night out with her friends-and her ex- Leah made this conclusion about her life with Corey: “I’m not happy.” Before commercial break, she said in a voiceover, “What if I ended up with the wrong guy?”
Corey finally reached his breaking point with Leah’s pre-occupation over her regained social life. After a tear-soaked talk in the car, Leah and Corey separated for three days before meeting up for dinner that ended in another argument over money and visitation.
Valentine’s Day proved to be a turning point when Leah learned Corey may be dating another girl, causing her to realize how much he meant to her and what a great guy he really was. But was the revelation too late?
“I made a lot of mistakes, I wish I could take every little bit of it back,” Leah said in a reflective moment at the end of the show. She also revealed that Corey had fully washed his hands of their relationship and realized that her flirtation with her ex was just a meaningless method of escape. “My kids don’t have a family like they should have. I can’t take back the hurt that I had done…I’ll live with this regret for probably the rest of my life and it just scares me.”

“I want you guys to know,” Leah says on our video blog, “that even though I seem like a complete witch in the show…I was just confused. I didn’t really know what I wanted because I wanted the normal teenage life back, but I realize I couldn’t have that.”

The challenges that Leah faces on a daily basis are far more difficult than any of the other stars of 16 and Pregnant. She was not only the mother of one child; she gave birth to twins—and lives on her own!
“Right now I’m currently not living with my mom either,” the former West Virginia cheerleader says, “I have my own place. It’s just me and the girls right now… I have two kids to take care of. And it made life ten times harder.”

Leah, who barely knew baby daddy Corey, would like to make things work even though they are having relationship issues. “I didn’t really want to lose Corey… Maybe Corey will come back home with us. I don’t really know.”
She went on to say “After we get past the hurt and everything else, I think we can pull through. And bring our family together and work things out. I really want that --more than anything.”
In the beginning Leah wasn’t realistic about having a baby, “I thought that once I had babies, oh I could go back to my slim size. And go on about life and be able to hang out with my friends...But I thought that everything could just be normal again.”
Leah’s 17 now and she has set many goals for her future. She wants to a nurse, and hopes one day to be a family again with Corey and her twins Aliannah Hope and Leah Grace.
16 and Pregnant airs on MTV at 10 p.m. ET Tuesday.
