Jamiesmum February 12, 2015 Share February 12, 2015 In the episodes when Jordyn was a baby (I have seen a heap of them in the last week or 2), M went everywhere with that damn cushion/pillow thing strapped to her middle, and this pink printed cover tied around her neck, with Jordyn hidden underneath. It was probably mostly for show, but I can't believe M would have willingly carried a baby around when she didn't have the need to do so. But then, Jordyn would only have been about four months old when M got caught with Josie. That said, when Josie was finally able to drink the expressed milk and did not put on weight, M said to the nurses that her milk was like skim milk, not much fat. That was before Josie was found to be intolerant of Ms milk. Link to comment

That was before Josie was found to be intolerant of Ms milk. Breast milk looks like skim milk. I doubt Michelle knows what she is talking about. LOL. Like I said..."tends to delay pregnancy". Nothing is absolute in life but death itself. 1 Link to comment
GEML February 12, 2015 Share February 12, 2015 Gothard had special weaning instructions to push women to become pregnant almost immediately. Normal, sustained breastfeeding across the board with women (and of course there will always be exceptions with individual women) leads to pregnancy every nine to eighteen months after birth, meaning a baby every eighteen months to every two years. 3 Link to comment
Jamiesmum February 12, 2015 Share February 12, 2015 Just had a thought. Will M pass on that nursing pillow/cushion thing and cape to Jill? I just threw up in my mouth a little bit thinking of that. 4 Link to comment

BitterApple February 12, 2015 Share February 12, 2015 I can totally see Jill as one of those moms who has to make a big show of breastfeeding. I'm sure she'll be wandering the halls of Wal-Mart headquarters with cushion, cape and Baby Dilly in tow. 4 Link to comment
barbedwire February 12, 2015 Share February 12, 2015 I'm in! I think the baby will come on 3/30 and weigh 8 lbs. 8 oz. Link to comment
bigskygirl February 12, 2015 Share February 12, 2015 Jill is bad enough already with her totally awesome, blessed, amazing husband. I can only picture how obnoxious she will be once Baby Son Dilly is born. She will be the second coming copy of her mother. Link to comment
Temperance February 12, 2015 Share February 12, 2015 I have three fundie-lite friends who had babies 14 or 13 months apart. They all assumed breast-feeding would keep them from getting pregnant right away. 14 minus 9 means the baby was about five months old when they conceived, although it's confusing because almost all of the second babies were premature (but grew to be relatively healthy.)

irisheyes February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 Holy crap, irisheyes, that's a linebacker! I hope you had an epidural! You certainly deserved one. :D C-section. Of course, his head was as wide as his shoulders, so he wasn't coming out any other way. :D Is Jilly doing a home birth? I guess when you can have the J'Slaves come over to cook and clean for you, you don't need a hospital. Link to comment
WTFFF February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 3/25, 9.5 lbs, 21.5". Name: Erick James Dillard or Frederick James Dillard. Link to comment
Mariva February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 http://instagram.com/p/zBjJmxGCeI/ ^ Derick confirms that his co-workers did indeed throw him and Jill a baby shower. A little sleuthing reveals that the actual shower took place at a church and not his office. Also note that Derick says this was his first baby shower. I don’t know if he was talking about for him in general or the first for their baby. If it’s the latter, I think it’s interesting that they haven’t had multiple baby showers by now. Just a theory but I wonder if maybe Derick and Jill told their friends and families that they didn't need any more baby gifts and only felt it would be rude to turn down his co-workers? 2 Link to comment
Mrsjumbo February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 I was a SAHM & Mr Jumbo's small office had a shower for us (& it was our third- though a *surpise* baby so we didn't have any baby items any more). I still think it was odd that so many family members showed up for Derickdillard's office shower. And where was Jessa?? 1 Link to comment
Hpmec February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 (edited) Richard James Robert Dillard, but he'll never escape the nickname Dilly. March 18th, 8lb.10 oz. 22.5 in. Born at home with Mullet hogging camera time. Wouldn't be surprised if JimBoob posted news of the birth on the gate of the compound, like they do at Buckingham Palace for a royal birth.

Well like I said, the baby shower took place at a church and not his office so that could explain why so many family members showed up (one of Derick's co-workers mentioned it in the comments). I think it's more odd that Jessa wasn't there, which I didn't realize until you brought it up. It's not like she has anything better to do with her free time (no school, no job, just endless hours for her to take selfies and post passive-aggressive bible quotes on IG) for her to miss her sister's shower.

Wellfleet February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 (edited) OK - just want to see how close I get. Baby Dilly arrives March 29 - my paternal grandfather's 105th birthday - 22 inches long and weighing an even 10 lbs. Now for something I'm sure of - Granny Mechelle will not do any laundry or shopping, run the vacuum around or bring along any freezer-to-oven meals for the new family. She may offer the services of a J-Slave or two, however, for an indeterminate length of time. Edited February 13, 2015 by Wellfleet Link to comment

floridamom February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 Thanks, Spaghetti Tuesdays, that was nice of you......I guess I'll add a name to my entry..Richard Michael Dillard OR (because the Duggars are vain...Richard Duggar Dillard..I think they won't want to lose the "Duggar name". I, too, find it strange that so many of Jill's family attended derickdillard's CO-WORKER'S shower. I would think it's for the office personnel to host and attend. I've never seen that before, especially since this isn't the only shower Jill was given, I'm sure she had a "family shower" or two for those people. But, the Duggars always stick themselves in everything, don't they? 3 Link to comment
SpaghettiTuesdays February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 Thank you, thank you! *bows with a purpose* I thought we could use some organization!! Yeah, we've had coworker baby showers and the husband/wife comes, but never other family. That's really odd to me. 4 Link to comment
trimthatfat February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 (edited) I think it's fine the Duggars attended the shower. If it was indeed the first one Jill and Derick have received, I don't think it's wrong for the sisters (or whomever) to attend, particularly since Derick said the shower was not held at work. Edited February 13, 2015 by trimthatfat 2 Link to comment
msblossom February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 The only reason that makes sense to me for Jill's family showing up at the shower put on by Derick's office mates is if they were invited guests. If they weren't invited guests, and Jill asked one of Derick's coworkers if she could invite some of her family members -- what are they gonna tell her, no? I could totally see Jill making this request because she's a)young and naive b)wasn't raised with proper social norms. And with Michelle as a mother, she, of course, didn't see anything awkward about it -- assuming they weren't initially invited guests. 2 Link to comment

BitterApple February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 Even if the Duggars weren't invited guests, they probably would have crashed the shower anyways. When have they ever turned down free food?

That's the whole purpose of a work shower, because co-workers typically don't go to the shower that's hosted by family and friends.

Wouldn't it have been more convenient to just hold the baby shower at his office if they only wanted his co-workers to be there? The fact that his co-workers sought an outside venue to hold the shower suggests to me that they expected or planned for other people to come. I wouldn't be surprised if part of the reason was because they wanted a chance to mingle with some local "celebrities", which the Duggars are. 3 Link to comment

She could have had a nice quiet wedding. No publicity. etc. but famewhoring brings in the $$$$$$ she learned it from her daddy. You better believe that she got money from People Magazine for her wedding pictures otherwise she would have not done it.

WalrusGirl February 14, 2015 Share February 14, 2015 Jill enjoys the attention she gets from being married and having a baby, and she willingly goes along with selling her new life to the highest bidder. She is a famewhore just like her parents. Of course she does. Getting married and having babies has been her entire life goal, and plenty of normal people with other goals are just as smug about wedding planning, newlywed bliss, and pregnancy, as though their life choices and milestones are as important to everyone else as they are to them. It majorly bugs, but I'm hardly seeing her as egregious. The Duggars post to IG, etc way less than some real people I know - at least in the Duggars' case, people actually do care, and staying in the public eye/connecting with fans actually brings in money. A social media presence is sort of an actual job requirement for them. D-list celeb/reality TV "ministry" is probably the only way JB&M would approve of their married daughters working and bringing in money, though I'd guess that Derek would support Jill's continuing as a midwife or doing other work if she wanted to. Their privacy/fame trade-off was made for them long ago, so to me it makes perfect sense they'd take the TLC focus and People covers - and the cash/control over the story - while they can. It's far more surprising to me that anyone first starting a courtship with any of the kids agree to it. 6 Link to comment
