Wrong hole your Grace 🤣

[GeeGolly]

Shit, they may be the most mature and independent couple out of the whole gang.

And Josie is Justin's clone.

[madpsych78]

I must say, they seem like they are genuinely just enjoying spending time together. It doesn't seem like they're in a rush to have kids. 

And I'm actually kind of impressed that Claire was able to lift Justin. Girl's got some upper body strength!

[BitterApple]

I need Claire's arm workout, because, dang girl. I can't believe she was able to lift Justin like that.

I think relocating to Texas was the best move Justin ever made. He and Claire seem happy, and not in a "faking it for the 'Gram" kind of way. The smiles reach their eyes.

I hope the more snowboarding they do, and other things they enjoy as a couple makes them think about waiting a few years for kids. They have so much time to have kids.

If she is lifting Justin she is not pregnant. 
 

So far only Jinger and Claire didn’t get pregnant right away. Unless I’m forgetting someone.

Jinger didn’t wait more than a year.

She got knocked up pretty much on their first anniversary.

Their children are going to have very high hairlines. Also, they still look like they are in high school.

[Shelbie]

I’m just glad they aren’t holding a baby who is 9 months old while announcing another pregnancy. 
They are certainly having an easier introduction to married life than some of his siblings who threw parenthood into the mix so quickly.

[SnapHappy]

Very sweet & thoughtful to have the florist remake her bouquet.   I don't think we've heard of any of the other Dooms (Duggar Grooms) doing that. 

Her flowers were lovely, as was their ceremony.  Good kids, taking it slow.

Assuming they held off until after the wedding, they would be holding a baby that's 3-4 months old while announcing another pregnancy.

That is not a good look, since Justin looks more like he should her much younger brother than her husband.

[crazycatlady58]

Honestly I am sort of impressed that they did the picture. The role reversal ( her picking him up) goes against their idea of what is manly/ feminine. 

[Westiepeach]

That is the weirdest picture. He is so limp (Oh stop it! lol!) Wouldn’t he naturally put his right arm around her neck or something? It is just dangling at his side doing nothing.

[dargosmydaddy]

He looks like a life-size ventriloquist dummy...

I think its kind of cute and playful. It also seems genuinely them. They seem to really like each other and if they hold off at least a COUPLE more years for kids (21/22 a the minimum) they will be much better off.

I was chatting with my co-worker who just learned she is going to be grandmother (she was spilling all the details about the situation)- she and her husband had been going out since they were 16, she said "I knew he was the one for me, no doubts" and have been married 26yrs, it DOES happen, but her mom told her "please wait a few years to have kids"- their first was born when she was 21, although they started living together right after HS. She is disappointed her son isn't married, but glad he is 26 expecting his first child.

Claire and Justin may end up like my co-worker and her husband.

I don't think parents on either side are discouraging them from procreation. However, maybe Juddy has half a brain and has decided to wrap it up. 

I know it's a long shot, but Jinger and Jeremy prevented for their first year of marriage.

It bodes well that Justin moved to Texas instead of Claire moving to Arkansas. That alone indicates a tiny bit of independent thinking. He's the only Doom to leave the confines of NWA (until FF goes to prison, that is). 

I hope her fertility patterns run more like her mother's than any Duggar's. Make it a fairly normal-sized, well-spaced family rather than a Duggar baby chute. 

[Snow Fairy]

Or maybe they just have troubles in fertility area. Given the number of couples, some of them should fall in the percentage which has problems (isn't it said that 1 in 7 couples has troubles conceiving?)

I think that is an overall average. 20 somethings are much less likely to have difficulties conceiving than 30 somethings or 40 somethings, etc.

Yeah- if you start trying to conceive in your late teens, that’s a very different thing than in your 30s/40s. But some couples are more fertile than others- Justin & Claire may only end up with 3-4 kids not because of diligent planning but just “because”, it happens. 

[Zella]

I'm sincerely sorry for evoking this mental image for everyone, but are we 100% sure that they know how their Legos are supposed to fit together? 

[xwordfanatik]

Boob probably schooled Justin the same way he schooled the FF.  Hand 'em a book by some fundie, and good luck.

I've maintained the entire marriage that Duddy hasn't found the right hole. 😁

I feel like Duddy has a hair-trigger and cannot keep it together long enough to find the right hole.

Claire hasn’t announced a pregnancy, and although I’m surprised it’s a good thing. Haven’t they been married over a year?

A year and a couple months. It's a very good thing. 

[ginger90]

They haven’t posted on Instagram since February. I’m thinking some have either abandoned it, or they have private accounts now.

I half expected a birth announcement today.

Hilaria's been so boringly not batshit crazy lately. I find it terribly disappointing. 

[madpsych78]

Evidently, Hilaria's oldest son experienced some injuries last month and was in the hospital. Some fractures and whatnot. Robby Spivey is his name?

[iwantcookies]

Guess they are using birth control!

[iwantcookies]

I bet Hilary been to busy to post due to her shrine to Jase. Now she even has a pic of him shirtless. Haba haba

Yes it was Robby, and it was a broken collar bone.

If James took and posted this picture, someone must have told him to take it down.
