I hope she gets lots of true loving support throughout this difficult time, and after. I'm pretty sure she won't. I truly believe the Duggars have ZERO idea of how to actually support other people -- and zero impulse to do so. Their parents have no empathy for anyone -- and they've deliberately adopted a cult that preaches the glories of no empathy. They don't give a shit about their children and they raised the kids to be nothing but rivals and snitches for each other, if you ask me. Living in a house of spies doesn't foster bonding. And i think we see that lack of empathy constantly among the Duggarlings. Their God is an angry, jealous spiteful God and they enjoy being just like him, as far as I can see. Pushing elderly ill Dad around in the wheel chair and clearly not giving a tiddly-toe crap when little Jackson got lost in the airport exemplify the humane standards that rule the Duggars, as far as I can see. And that's only been worsened by the fact that, now, all the siblings and siblings-in-law have spent years learning and practicing the art of drawing attention to themselves on TeeVee and now social media. And recently they've been doing that with increasing desperation. Thanks to their parents, their cult and their media and social-media exposure, it's a big shark tank they live in, in my opinion. Poor Joy. Edited July 4, 2019 by Churchhoney 16 Link to comment
Popular Post truebluesmoky July 4, 2019 Popular Post Share July 4, 2019 (edited) My sister lost a pregnancy around 18 weeks. She was having a healthy pregnancy and receiving proper prenatal care. She had been to a regular prenatal appointment two weeks prior and wasn’t due for another one until her 20 week anatomy scan. She only found out earlier because someone had given her a home fetal heart monitor as a gift, and she went from being able to find the heartbeat to not being able to find it. She truly thought she was being paranoid when she made the appointment to have her OB check for the heartbeat, because she figured it was just an issue of the home monitor not being a real, professional medical device. Instead, her ultrasound at the OB revealed than the fetus had died in utero. She had to be induced and go through labor before delivering her deceased baby. It was absolutely brutal, as this was a much wanted pregnancy. I feel horrible for Joy, having seen this situation in real life. It’s gut wrenching, because you can’t just get the news and start to grieve. You still have to go through the pain of delivery. In my opinion, this is not a time to search for reasons why it might have been Joy’s fault. Chances are, it was random. These things happen. In addition to Lauren’s insensitive babbling, if the family has known for a week, I can’t help but be irritated by Jinger and Jeremy’s self absorbed posts during that time. It’s one thing for Jessa to still post a photo of her newborn, but Jinger and Jeremy have constantly posted glamorous, gratuitous “L.A. lifestyle” photos, as well as 1847373 random pictures of Felicity. It seems insensitive during their sister’s extremely tragic and painful loss. This is the type of loss I would expect Jinger to even fly back for, but at the very least, she could take a hiatus from hat pictures. Edited July 5, 2019 by truebluesmoky 38 Link to comment

Popular Post doodlebug July 4, 2019 Popular Post Share July 4, 2019 8 hours ago, Zella said: Is this something that would have been caught sooner ordinarily or is usually found at about this stage? (I don't mean that to sound accusatory. Am just genuinely curious.) No way to know. We know how far along Joy was, but not how big the baby was. Even if she was getting regular prenatal care; she was probably only being seen once a month and she was just at the point where the baby's kicks can be felt so Joy wouldn't have realized that the kiddo wasn't moving. With standard prenatal care, it is not impossible that a baby could die several weeks before being discovered at this point in pregnancy. As far as NIPT, free fetal DNA testing is actually fairly reasonably priced, under $500. However, why would Joy want to do this? First, as pointed out earlier, she isn't over 35, there's no specific genetic problem in the family. Secondly, even if Joy had NIPT and knew that her baby had Down Syndrome or another genetic anomaly; I feel pretty certain that having an abortion would never be an option with her. She would've simply continued the pregnancy and prayed for her baby. And the baby still would've died. Most conceptions with Trisomy 21, the most common genetic problem do not result in a live birth. About 90% of conceptions with Down Syndrome result in miscarriage or stillbirth. While I have been pretty clear about my feelings concerning the quality of prenatal care that the Duggars get, I see absolutely nothing here that was preventable. Unless we receive information that something extraordinary happened that could've been detected and treated, I cannot blame Joy's probably less than stellar prenatal care. 9 28 Link to comment
Turquoise July 4, 2019 Share July 4, 2019 How awful for Joy & Austin. Annabell Elise is a lovely name. I feel for them having to watch all the baby girls arrive this fall. Lauren better not deliver any where near Annabell's due date...she'd be obtuse enough to point it out. 8 Link to comment
Annb67 July 4, 2019 Share July 4, 2019 My heart breaks for Joy and Austin. Lauren, congratulations, I despise you as much as I do Josh. You are a self-absorbed little bitch. It's not all about you and your heavy period. Just go away. 18 Link to comment
madpsych78 July 4, 2019 Share July 4, 2019 Poor Joy. Although there's no way to prove this, I actually had a theory that perhaps there was something genetic, and what ultimately affected Annabell had also affected Jubilee, given that they were lost about the same time in the pregnancy. Again, there's no way to know. I've never been pregnant either, but I would think that a miscarriage after about six weeks or so is very different from a stillbirth. Joy was far enough along that they determined it was a girl, whereas we don't really know that Lauren was having a boy with the previous pregnancy. 8 Link to comment

mythoughtis July 4, 2019 Share July 4, 2019 (edited) I’m not minimizing this tragedy with my next comment. Really, I’m not: This family was trained to smile for the camera from a young age/ including a group photo at Josie’s ICU bassinet, Jason’s critical fall thru the stage trap door, their grandparents health issues, drowning etc. They were filmed doing ordinary or stupid stuff the week after these things. They were filmed holding a very tacky funeral for Jubilee, complete with a shellcase for a casket. They really have never been taught Its ok to grieve.. Plus the rest of us don’t really get to either. ‘Hey, boss, I need two weeks paid leave because my sister had a miscarriage, and no I don’t have any vacation coming.’ ETA: some of the family’s silly posting this week might have been to provide ‘cover’ for Joy and Austin. If you are distracted by Jinger, maybe you don’t notice what’s going on ‘behind door number 2’. Edited July 4, 2019 by mythoughtis 12 Link to comment

I hope she has good support from Austin and makes a good emotional recovery. With the number of marriages and pregnancies in these families, which is only gong to continue to increase, pretty soon miscarriage announcements are going to rival lame birthday wishes, pregnancy announcements, and pathetic anniversary pictures. All anyone seems to get is congrats that everyone's miscarriages are playing soccer up in heaven, or Michelle reminiscing about her blessed miscarriage. Zero emotional support.

I mean, it get that she’s like 19, and most of us were pretty self-centered at that age, plus, her cult infantilizes kids, but your mama needs to tell you to hush right now. Your heavy period, while heartbreaking , is far different than Joy and Austin’s loss. I’m assuming that she was far enough along that they got to hold an baby in their arms (albeit tiny and not fully formed). Poor Joy. These next few months are going to be very tough. Thankfully, she has Gideon to keep her busy, and it looks like Austin has really grown to be a good husband. She’s gonna need a lot of support from his family, cause she’s certainly not getting it from hers. 28 Link to comment

Given Michelle’s narcissism, the stream of replacement siblings every year, the harsh religious rules forbidding any kind of authentic emotion, the presence of television cameras, and the early days of not enough food or clothing, honestly it’s a wonder the Duggar kids didn’t split into coalitions and kill each other. So it’s not a surprise that some bitchy side-eye gets out there. Back to thread topic...Austin has grown on me. He actually works, he’s rebelled in the past, and he seems to love his wife and child.

Scarlett45 July 4, 2019 Share July 4, 2019 I am very sorry for Joy. She’s suffering on a physical, emotional and mental level. I hope Austin is a support for her and she doesn’t blame herself for this. Having someone in her corner will mean all the difference for her emotionally. Lauren really needs to STFU, and not make everything about her. I disagree with the notion that Jinger and Jess’s should stop posting happy photos on their social media during this time- I think they can post what they like on their own social media. If tomorrow Joy goes back to posting “as normal” I wouldn’t think any less of her for it. She might just want to grieve privately and capture the good memories. Again I’m sorry for Joy. 20 Link to comment
Temperance July 4, 2019 Share July 4, 2019 I don't feel or know there's anything Joy and Austin could have differently. I don't blame them at all and I hope they don't blame themselves. I also worry that they will blame themselves, because of the cult they grew up in. Gothard preached that good things will happen to his followers if they obey their rules/lifestyle. Bad things are supposed to only happen if people aren't "Godly" enough. I watched the Youth Conference for Christ video (which you can see on youtube) featuring JB and Michelle and David and Priscilla Waller. They told story after story about how good things happen to their "Godly" friends and family and bad things happened to people who weren't following God. I wouldn't be surprised if Joy and Austin doubled down on their beliefs after having such a negative experience. My thoughts and sympathy are with them. As for Lauren, what seems most insensitive about her post is that she still pregnant. 8 Link to comment

LongDenimFrumper July 4, 2019 Share July 4, 2019 How incredibly sad. I’m very sorry for Joy. I can’t imagine what she’s going through right now. I don’t agree with much this family does or supports but it’s still a terrible situation to lose a much wanted child. All that being said... when you make a career of reproducing, I would imagine you need to try to prepare yourself mentally for a few losses. It would be very unusual to reach offspring in numbers of teens & twenties without miscarriage, stillbirth, or the possibility of some serious health conditions for mother or baby. Especially in this case where the family tradition is to push the spacing of births together as close as humanly possible. They also give very little to no recovery time for the mother. An unwanted outcome is bound to happen when you push your body to the limit. Joy is barely an adult herself... I hope they give her enough time to recover both physically & mentally. Lauren is nauseating... 11 Link to comment

It's become an Olympic event: who can get pregnant the fastest after the wedding, who gives birth at home as opposed to a hospital, who has the longest labor, who can come the closest to cheating death, who can pop out the most number of babies, who will give birth to those elusive twins.

It would be sad for anyone but, given their beliefs, I would imagine that they feel tremendously guilty on top of the many other emotions they're dealing with right now. That having been said, I do hope that this slows their roll in the baby department -- it probably won't, but there's always hope. Remember that Joy and Austin are the only two who have explicitly stated that they see nothing wrong with the Pearl "training" methods. What we see are cute babies and toddlers, we don't see inside the daily lives of these kids with the religious brow-beating and the harsh physical "discipline." I have much more compassion for these theoretical kids than I do their parents, and I hope that none of them will come close to recreating the horror show of the Duggar parents. 11 Link to comment

But I wasn't aware of that type of photography being available and if that's something they wanted and arranged for, I think that's lovely for them. 7 Link to comment
