The Duggars post about politics on social media frequently, but these social media posts are not an invitation to discuss politics here in this forum. This rule extends to Duggar adjacent families, friends, associates etc. Such discussions are a violation of the Politics Policy. 

I understand with recent current events there may be a desire to discuss certain social media postings of those in the Duggar realm as they relate to politics- this is not the place for those discussions. If you believe someone has violated forum rules, report them, do not respond or engage.

Nobody knows.  They've posted photos of Bin's family with the other kids, so we've been speculating that Jessa has had the baby.  No official announcement yet.

Jessa doesn't reveal the gender of her kids prior to delivery.  She probably thinks it adds to the suspense and encourages interest from her many fans.

Imho if you are pro-life, BE PRO LIFE.  That is, be pro every STAGE of life, not just in utero.  Why doesn’t pro life include teens?  Elders?  Suppprt QUALITY public education for all of our children.

I went on a couple of those ATI approved 'Journey to the Heart' brainwashings back in the day when I was a teenager. I think they might have been called something different. I don't really remember. M

Thank you.  I'll be watching!

We have no idea; it's all supposition based on the Instagram story showing Ben's sister and mom with the kids, and Jessa previously saying that she was planning on a hospital birth. The gender hasn't been announced, although Jessa and Ben know.

Oh boy.  Score 1 for Jessa.  Going to save the show once again.  TLC will be knocking the Duggers doors down.  LOL

Oh yes - a very special episode about the birth of the twins, followed by another VSE a few months later: Jessa and Ben adopt a baby! 🤣

Jeggings, probably? I mean, they're godly when you wear them with a very long shirt or, even better, a dress....

And Vision Forum -- by contrast to Gothard -- was all about more "with it" dressing, so you could semi-blend in with society by stealth and take things over from within using your extreme superiority. I think there's still a lot of that attitude in the Seewalds. Mike has always thought he's pretty hot, important, and intellectual stuff, I believe. (...sort of a Geoff Botkin lite) 

 

And they’re “taking things over” by doing what? 🤣

Clothes that actually fit and aren’t cutting off blood flow!  If that isn’t a big old🖕🏻to us from Jessa, I don’t know what would be! 😂

Barefoot outside in the dirt and that unfinished tree fort filled with potential splinters in their feet???? Put proper sneakers THAT FIT on your children, Jessa and Ben.

I can’t fault her on that.  The only time my feet ever saw shoes in the summer months was at church or a special event.  I’m sitting outside shoeless as I write this.  I never wear shoes in the summer.  I had some congenital bone/joint issues when I was younger and my specialist told my parents that it’s better that kids go barefoot, if possible.  Granted, that was in the 60’s and 70’s.  I don’t know what the recommendations are nowadays.  Mods, I apologize for getting off topic.  I’ll put myself in timeout. 😞

Can you imagine being adopted by these 2?

No proper education, bed, clothes, being fed crackers 99% of the time.

Birth Story Part 1 is already on YouTube. Wow, Jessa really likes to drag out the suspense, doesn't she?

It's so funny to hear Jessa going on and on about choosing a name. Just don't let Ben name the poor child and it should be fine! Poor bored Spurgeon (he of the horrible name) doesn't care a whit about what gender # 4 will be!

No education and the brainwashing would be the worst part. Should be considered child abuse.

I'm glad Jessa's delivery went safely, but my overall reaction is meh, whatever. Once the new baby novelty wears off, #4 will be a greasy, unkempt mess like his/her siblings.

I'm glad Jessa had the baby in the hospital and I hope both are healthy. Yesterday was Boob's birthday, and it's kind of sad if she had the baby on JB's birthday.  Ivy was born on Grandma Mary's birthday.

I hope Jessa and baby are both doing well.  I also hope baby was born just after midnight to get his/her own birthday.  (Do we know the exact birthdate yet?) I think it would be annoying to share a birthday with JB.

Nope.  I watched the first video which was Jessa going on and on about Braxton-Hicks and false labor over several days and ends with her and Bin walking into the hospital on the 18 to give birth.  The pic of her holding the baby on her chest is not from that particular video.

I'm so glad my birthday was spared, and I don't have to share it with a Duggar grandchild! 

Also glad Jessa apparently learned a lesson and had a hospital birth.

It's been a long time since I've listened and watched Jessa speak. Was she being held captive? Just a flat monotone voice.

Congrats to Jessa.  At least it was safe for all involved. 

 So she was posting pictures of the kids eating backyard pears,  posting camping YouTube videos and what not while she was having a baby or in the hospital?  I guess your life isn’t worth all that much, new little Sewald child.

She's been like that for a while. Even when she's supposed to be having fun she sounds like she's making a hostage tape.

Thanks! It's not for a couple more weeks (August 3). Last week or so some of us were calculating and someone reasoned (not unreasonably) her due date would have been 3 weeks from then based on some social media clues. That placed it on my birthday. I was like Queen Victoria. Not amused. 😂 But all is well!

I wonder who filmed them walking in the hospital?

Jana? Meech? Likely one of those. 

@Zella, her latest due date was something like 7/28. This was based on when she had her ultrasound and the earliest possible date for her to have it (14 weeks). We now know that her due date was 7/16.

Felicity is on the 19th, so either way this one shares a birthday.

My son went all the way through school with a boy named Braxton Hicks. His parents thought it was funny. When all the boys got to around age 11 and figured out the meaning, it was no longer funny to Braxton.

maybe there's a name option for Jessa - Braxton Hicks Seewald
