MTV today announced that the hit docu-series "Teen Mom 2," will return on a new day, Mondays, beginning November 12 at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT. The third season of this groundbreaking series goes beyond tabloid headlines and inside the emotional journeys of four young mothers as they face some of their biggest challenges yet, as their children enter into their "terrible twos." From a difficult divorce and an unexpected pregnancy to a young mom working through rehab and increasingly rocky relationships, the dramatic season catches up with Chelsea, Jenelle, Kailyn and Leah and takes viewers inside the real stories and very unglamorous struggles these young women face as they navigate their way through life with toddlers in tow.

"Teen Mom 2" returns to air as teen pregnancy and teen birth rates in the U.S. are at historic lows, following impressive declines in recent years. In its third season, the show immediately brings viewers on an intense rollercoaster of the ups and downs that come with raising a child at a young age.

A country girl who wears her heart on her sleeve, Leah is a former cheerleader from a small town and the mother of twin girls Alianna and Aleeah. Leah sacrificed everything her senior year in order to graduate, take care of her babies and try to make things work with her daughters' father, Corey. However, the honeymoon is over and as their trust issues intensify, Leah and Corey make the difficult decision to get divorced, and head to mediation for custody of their girls. As Leah struggles to move on, she looks into a local university's nursing program and meets someone new. Full speed ahead, Leah and her new boyfriend Jeremy quickly solidify their relationship and things get serious. As she moves forward though, she's still confused over her feelings for Corey, and is now faced with telling him that she's not only engaged to Jeremy, but is also pregnant again.

Jenelle continues her struggle to reconcile the responsibilities of motherhood with her love of partying. Despite their tumultuous relationship, Jenelle's mother, Barbara, cares for her son Jace while Jenelle tries to prove herself as a mom and a responsible adult. However, the partying catches up with Jenelle as she tries to stay clean on probation, but ultimately fails her mandatory drug test. After going against her lawyer's advice, Jenelle faces time in jail. As things calm down, she meets a new guy, Josh, who she quickly moves in with. But, as her former trouble-maker boyfriend Keiffer comes crashing back into her life, things change more quickly than ever. All the while, a tough question keeps bubbling up for Jenelle as she reveals that she isn't sure if absent "birthfather" Andrew is Jace's dad after all, and begins to consider having him take a paternity test.
