I agree. And I do not wish any harm on any Duggar or baby ... really. As much as I snark ... you get no prenatal care (assuming!) odds are against you. And I would not trust Jilly Muffin to deliver a pizza to me successfully so ...

I didn't think of that until you mentioned it. You're right. It could be conjoined twins or something for all they know (my mind goes to weird places.)

I hope both baby and mother are fine, though.

[ScorpioSoul]

Not to defend the Duggars, but it is possible to get medical care and not find out the sex. You just have to tell them you don't want to know. However given the way we have seen the Duggars act in regards to pregnancy and child birth, you might be right. Hopefully Austin had the sense to put his foot down for the safety of his unborn child.

Yup, my daughter doesn't want to know the sex of her baby until it is born.  After her last ultrasound I am convinced it's a boy just from the profile LOL. She had a tiny button nose as a baby, but this one already seems to resemble her husband, who has a very strong nose, which looks good on him, but might be a bit on the large side for a girl. Not that I haven't known a lot of stunning women with prominent noses, but the baby just looks very handsome to me, which my mind interprets as masculine :) 

I am so in love with this little face already!!

This is exactly what I was talking about with my earlier post.   I had a positive home pregnancy test on Thanksgiving day and was due the end of July.   Based on the pics we know Jinger told her family at Thanksgiving.    Something doesn’t add up.  Then again, I went to an actual school for my education.

I think it's a boy, too.  

[queenanne]

Yeah, I was gonna say the same thing - we are expecting Joy to be able to count??  And in months, reading the distance between signposts?

[saylubee]

Like I said in the other topic, (I'm pretty sure) Joy-Anna is due at the end of February.  Jinger is probably due something like 8/1, which would line up both with the Vuolo's anniversary and finding out the week of Thanksgiving.  I would consider that six months, even if counting by days puts it closer to five months.  

[riverblue22]

On the other hand, Austin comes from a family of two children. If his mother had medical care, his parents may encourage him to get Joy to an doctor or at least a real midwife.

[momma2seven]

So wait... 6 months from "end of February, probably March" is end of August/early September. Either Double J Junior has only been baking a couple weeks, Joy can't count (or Jessa, because Jessa nodded to Joy confirming the 6 month statement in the video), or Joy was joyfully available prior to the wedding.

I will lose my shit if she’s relying on Dr Jill, Medicine Woman and Theresa the Toilet  Doula.

According to her baby gift registry on Amazon, Joy's baby is due on February 22.  (The wedding was May 26, 2017.)

So she got pregnant on her wedding night? Not saying it doesn't happen, but how convenient....

Honestly, I don't think that Joy knows her due date. In order to know her due date, she would have needed to consult a medical professional-- the Duggars don't need to do that, though, because Jesus.

I've said it before, but I would be so angry if I got pregnant on my wedding night if I were a virgin, moving from my parents house into the world for the first time, just having had my first kiss. I'd want a chance to be a wife before I'm a mom, but then again I have different values. But seeing as I'm none of this things ... no, I'd still be annoyed.

Not necessarily, considering she was probably taking pregnancy tests every day. The milisecond one came back positive and provided she knew the date of the first day of her last period it's pretty easy to get a due date. The internet will do it for you. And at the very least she'd (or her family) would be interested so they could talk to her about the designer ultrasound they'd want.

Actual prenatal care is a whole different issue.

Unless an ultrasound shows anything drastically different or you just don’t know LMP because of birth control, the doc is going to use LMP to calculate the due date.  I’ve used internet calculators for both my kids before my first prenatal appointment.  Lo and behold the doc gave me the same date both times.

Women are quite capable of tracking their own cycles and determining their due date. 

[ozziemom]

Well all the Duggar girls had plenty of experience tracking Meechelle’s cycle so I’m sure they know due date. Plus they buy pregnancy kits by the case. We have speculated in the past that they pick wedding date based on when they are ovulating, lol.

Yes WOMEN are. Uneducated children who have a hard time counting to six are not.

That’s a little unfair. They can count past 6 or even 10. Why do you think they run around barefoot or in flip flop so much? ?

Can the boys count to 21 without taking their pants off?  

[floridamom]

I don't knowwww.....Jill couldn't add up the number of birthdays the family had celebrated herself. She said she had to let Derick, ( the college graduate) add it up for her. Remember that? I do.

You guys crack me up. The Duggar kids know how to track menstruation, they've been tracking Michelle's for years - on the KITCHEN calendar - for years - as a FAMILY. Ew, just ew.

I wonder when they put 2 & 2 together as to why JB & M locked their bedroom door around the same time each month. Triple ew.

It’s like on The Wire when the inner city kid couldn’t do straightforward math but could easily solve the same problem when it was a matter of getting the stash count right. 

That is not a comparison I ever imagined making.

I don't think Joy and Austin had sex before they were married but they ended up with the speculations because of two things . The wedding registry with Joy's birthday as a place holder , probably done to get the media and leghumpers off their backs (and maybe started before they even set the date ) which led to all those shotgun wedding rumors and blind items  and Joy carrying large . I don't think if Joy looked like Jessa early on we'd have this discussion right now .

Damn!  I'm wondering the same thing!  Jessa's pregnant, for sure, and looks to be 4 or 5 months along.  Just rename her Fertile Myrtle or Clown Car, Jr.

No, I think that's Gabby as this was labeled Gabby and Drew's baby shower. It doesn't look like Jessa to me.

I hope you're right.  I'm hoping Jessa doesn't keep spitting out a kid every year or so, because Spurgie and Henry are too precious to get lost in the shuffle of a houseful of kids.

[lascuba]

It looks a bit like Jessa, but the guy she's feeding isn't Ben so it's probably not her. 

[BitterApple]

Jessa is definitely pregnant, but the girl to Joy's right is someone else. The profile looks similar but this girl's hair is darker.

There's no Jessa.

[CarolMK]

I'm just taking a wild guess and thinking that Joy will have the baby by Valentine's day. I read somewhere, can't remember exactly, that stated Joy's due date was early March. But then there is the Amazon registry that gives a due date of Feb 22. It won't be long now. By the way, since I haven't been keeping track, have any of the  Duggar babies weighed less than 7 1/2 pounds? Seems like all of them are good sized, especially Jill's babies.

Well, she's the star of the show. So maybe she's saving her announcement to be the big finish of this pregnancy round. 

After all, she'll be the first of the mentionable Duggarlings to get to three.

You and me both. I'm fine with an old-school style shower of a tasteful luncheon and gift opening, but these ridiculous co-ed circuses with obnoxious games? Yeah, no thanks, I'd rather sleep with Smuggar.

I think so too on IG the girl Gabby is wearing the same dress in the profile picture.  Plus he hair is shorter than Jessa.

Seriously, whatever happened to dressing up and attending a nice lunch being given by the new  mom's mother's best friend and watching her unwrap some lovely packages from female friends and family?  It's like now you need a DATE for a damn shower. And don't wear your good clothes or heels because who knows what gross games you'll be pressured into playing.  And with menfolk attending, drinking seens to have become more of a thing, too.  Plus with the dads coming along there is nobody home to watch the kids.  So by all means, everyone, bring your 900 brats along to run wild through the proceedings.  And get ready to do it all again for baby 2, 3, 4 ... ugh!

Excuse me, I need to go chase some kids off my lawn and then I need to travel back several decades in my time machine. Later!

[queenanne]

I’ve never heard of a coed shower, though I grant the last time my friends popped out kids was about a decade ago.  Is it really that widespread?

That could be our new catch phrase. Would you like a root canal? Yeah, no thanks, I'd rather sleep with Smuggar. How about I chop off your arm? Yeah, no thanks, I'd rather sleep with Smuggar. Although honestly, I really cant think of anything i wouldn't choose over sleeping with Smuggar.
