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.

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.

Dammit, I wish they'd all stop spreading misinformation about abortion.  Most women who seek abortion don't do it at the stage of that ultrasound image Dustbin posted unless there are severe abnormali

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

Well, shit.  At least she waited for the first trimester to be over to announce.  Maybe she will say NO to cameras during labor.

 

If that is what they really want, more power to them.  Hope everything goes well.  

 

I found the comment about being grateful for having a year together as a couple to be quite telling.  I could be wrong but maybe they were not as eager to be parents as Jill and Derick were.

Am I allowed to say s#it on this board??? The article is disturbing too. She says 'having this first year to share just the two of us has been special' ignoring the fact that it was about the 10th quote with special in it, they have only been married 5 1/2 months and she's entering her 2nd trimester. Where was this first year just the two of us???

God. Damn. What a fucking waste. Another woman delegated to only bearing children. Thank god my life is more than that. How utterly sad and demeaning and for what? The TLC paycheck because God knows Bin has absolutely nothing else going on for him.

This pisses me off more than it should but holy crap, someone grow a fucking pair of balls and claim something else for their life other than the party line.

Oh, I use much stronger language than that on this board, lol. 

 

Congrats to Jessa, I guess. I wasn't following the is-she-or-isn't-she speculation here because I've never found celebrity pregnancies to be that interesting. Especially with a family like the Duggars, where the main thing they're known for is popping out kids one after the other, after a while it's just... okay, I get it, you're fertile. (Yeah, I know that Michelle =/= Jessa =/= Jill, but at a certain point all the babies/pregnancies just blur together for me!)

Baby is due on their anniversary, so they will have had a year as a couple.  Of course being pregnant changes the dynamic so much.  That little elephant in the room is hard to ignore.

Without TLC Bin and Jessa would be living in a shoe. Neither have any skills for the real world.

You don't think that the Dashing Binjermin Seewald has the skills to go into ministry? His video interviews with Jinger didn't convince you?

Don't forget that it's their primary goal to populate God's army. The TLC paycheck just facilitates it.

Sorry. Doesn't work that way (I know you know that but it doesn't seem that Jessa does) A year by yourselves means no baby in the room, even if it's fully contained. Once you are pregnant it's about the baby, not the relationship. Plus she said it as if it was different than Jill or a honeymoon baby. Sorry but 2 - 3 months is not a year alone together

Bin and Jessa better be praying that TLC doesn't cancel the Duggars because their tv fame is the only thing that's going to keep them and what will become their ridiculously large brood fed. Boob isn't going to be able to provide a livelihood for everybody down the line -especially if he continues marrying off his daughters to uneducated teenagers. Bin has no skills whatsoever, so he is entirely dependent on the show and whatever crumbs Boob throws his way. Sad for the baby being born into this trainwreck.

Maybe there is an upside to this pregnancy. Maybe Jessa can move Jinger in with them on the basis that she needs some extra help. It would get Jinger out of the Big House and maybe cheer her up a little.

The way the Duggars seem to feel Jessa and Jinger can no longer be besties just because Jessa got married makes no sense to me.

They really are trying to build God's Army. It is frightening. No one cares if you are going to have kids or not have kids, but to do it in this creepy cult way is so mind boggling. Please someone get educated! I will come and tutor the Duggar kids for free.

Wow, they waited  a whole 3 months to get pregnant. I'm so glad the decided to take it slow.

Hahahaha! Their fertility is insane!!!!!! Even for young people they are pregnant immediately, everyone  single one of them.

So if she is due November 1, she is about 3 months along? Looking at her size in the People picture I am guessing twins. With my twins I popped out by 2.5 months. If it is twins might be a reason they waited to announce.

I'll admit that I read the People article and my heart sank a little.  I was hoping they would take a little more time as a couple before becoming parents.  Although the baby will not arrive until November, it still is not a full year.  I suspect that many of their conversations now will centre around baby.

 

I do often wonder how these couples are going to support themselves once TLC goes away.  Jim Bob and Michelle have created a generation of 19 uneducated kids not equipped to deal with the real world.  It makes me sad, especially since Ben appears to only be working for Boob.

 

I guess the next pregnacy announcement will come when Jill announces #2.

Jessa's acne has been photoshopped to hell in the People pic.

 

Jill and Anna are likely fuming at being old news. I wonder if they'll even bother filming Anna's birth. (Kidding!)

Jessa's older sister Jill Dillard, 23, and her husband, Derick, 26, welcomed son Israel David on April 6 after a 70-hour labor. Jill, a student midwife, "has all the knowledge and training," Jessa says.

 

Does she? Does she really Jessa?  I'm wondering if they'll have Jill be responsible for delivery since she's supposedly taking her certification exam this summer.
