Lynne Spears is reportedly on her way back to Louisiana and none too soon as sixteen year old Jamie Lynn Spears has been waiting on her mom. Though Britney was released from UCLA Medical Center on Feb. 6, Lynne was still in Los Angeles for another week. So what was Jamie Lynn up to while mom was away tending to Britney?

"Jamie (is) just hanging out with friends and cousins, mostly cousin Laura Lynn, who's twenty-six" a Spears family insider tells Life & Style. "Jamie Lynn wants to go to the doctor to find out the baby’s sex, but because Lynne had to leave to help with Britney, Jamie Lynn had to postpone it. She wants to wait until her mother can be there with her."

She may need her mother now more than ever, says psychiatrist Dr. Keith Ablow, who does not treat the star. “It’s a big hurdle to be sixteen and pregnant and separated geographically from your family,” Dr. Ablow tells Life & Style. “At a time when she needs a real safety net under her, there isn’t a lot of safety.”

And traveling with Lynne to LA was not an option. “Jamie Lynn really wanted to be able to go to LA,” says the insider close to the Spears family, “but her parents told her no. They didn’t want her to be around the craziness. Lynne told her, ‘There’s nothing you can do here anyway.’”
