Temperance June 12, 2018 Share June 12, 2018 (edited) So they had a baby.... while my computer was getting fixed. I knew there would be big news. I like Garrett as much better way to honor the father than Joe Jr. He gets to be his own person more and not share a nickname with at least two of his uncles and aunts. (Josiah and Josie plus Johannah who goes by Hannie and four more Jo-names. ) Good for Kendra having an easier birth! Although I do think certain things are out of people's control. Joy and Jill might still have had traverse or breech babies even with prenatal care. Any of the girls might have gone over their due date. Israel may have been naturally big as he's so tall and big for age anyway. I hope Kendra had better prenatal care and more qualified people delivering the baby, but part of the easy delivery is probably luck. Of course having a first delivery go well, might make her more of a candidate for homebirth next time. I wonder if TLC had something to do with them not giving birth at home. If I were the network, I would be tired of filming Duggar homebirths that went badly and would be scared of both public outrage/backlash if something horribly wrong happened while we were filming. (I've wondered if this is why they don't film Jill and Derick anymore. I mean they possibly gave Jill and the Duggars one last chance with Joy's birth and that didn't go well. I wouldn't let Jill deliver someone else's (non-family) baby on-camera for fear, they might sue the network if it didn't go well.)

I have had a feeling that of the inlaws, Kendra will have the cleanest house, the best kept kids, and will always look like she has showered. She just strikes me as normal in that way where the Duggar daughters all are so slovenly. Except Jinger now that she has escaped from their daily influence.

doodlebug June 12, 2018 Share June 12, 2018 16 hours ago, Lady Edith said: No assistance. One of the things that folks of this religious persuasion do is eschew governmental assistance of any kind. That’s why so many of them live in abject poverty. Jim Bob himself proclaimed that he has never and will never take assistance from the government. So if Baby G was born in the hospital with insurance, chances are it came from Daddy C. Unless Joe splurged and got insurance for Kendra, seeing how his married siblings had to pay off hospital bills due to no coverage. But then again, wasn’t it hypothesized that Medicaid paid for Josie’s hospital bills while in NICU? So maybe governmental help is not always poo poo’d if true... Medicaid coverage for micropreemies like Josie is universal. Even if they didn't want it, they would still receive it, parents cannot opt out. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/55334-joe-kendra-looking-forward-to-side-hugs/page/54/#findComment-4408060

You have all those able-bodied people, multiple industrial dishwashers, and you have to create a literal mountain of trash by using paper plates, every meal, full time? Really?? Kendra's parents are firm proponents of trusting God with the size of your family. Like many women, Kendra's mom simply wasn't mega fertile. There were probably some miscarriages in there, or periods of just not getting pregnant at all. I knew some Quiverfull families like that. Heck, Austin's parents are in the Quiverfull camp and only wound up with two. It happens. It could be that in Kendra's parents' minds, leaving the family size up to God just means not using any form of birth control and not tracking ovulation. The Duggar method is the complete opposite to leaving it up to God. Also, tracking ovulation and only having sex when the wife is fertile; seems to me to really kill the mood. Not to mention, not everyone has a hyperactive sex drive like JB. Now I need the brain bleach. 15 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/55334-joe-kendra-looking-forward-to-side-hugs/page/54/#findComment-4414172
madpsych78 June 14, 2018 Share June 14, 2018 Thinking about how we haven't seen any congrats videos or postings from anyone other than the Dillards. It's very strange, especially since Garrett's last name is Duggar - he and the male M kids are the ones who are going to pass down the Duggar name so far. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/55334-joe-kendra-looking-forward-to-side-hugs/page/54/#findComment-4415109

Makes me wonder HOW and WHY the congratulation videos are actually planned and executed.

Just because they're fundie, doesn't mean they're quiverfull. Michael and Debbi Pearl are definitely fundie and believe in natural family planning. (It's in for example--Born To Be His Helpmate, which was mentioned as a contentious issue by other fundies who read it . ) Edited June 15, 2018 by Temperance 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/55334-joe-kendra-looking-forward-to-side-hugs/page/54/#findComment-4415507

When Jill broke out the Fisher Price Little Doctor medical kit and started looking up Kendra's nose for the baby, Joe said it's time to go to a hospital. 34 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/55334-joe-kendra-looking-forward-to-side-hugs/page/54/#findComment-4416045

It is now day seven and no other Duggar sibling has posted a Congratulations video. Ma and Pa Duggar haven't either! To do so now would almost be an insult. I wonder what Kendra (and Joe?) did to deserve this treatment.

Maybe Kendra had real OB care through the pregnancy, Jill's offers of "help" were firmly declined, they went to the hospital when it was time only inviting Kendra's mother, and even worse when they told family the baby had arrived they said please do not descend on the hospital or at the house. 43 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/55334-joe-kendra-looking-forward-to-side-hugs/page/54/#findComment-4416136
DragonFaerie June 15, 2018 Share June 15, 2018 I can just see Kendra's face go from all smiles and giggles to, "Oh fuck, hell no," when Jilly Bean brought over the used baby birthing pool for her to use. Don't worry we hosed it out after Joy used it. It's still good and just ignore the stains. 13 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/55334-joe-kendra-looking-forward-to-side-hugs/page/54/#findComment-4416195
Minivanessa June 15, 2018 Share June 15, 2018 (edited) Maybe they're just saving it all for the show. If they didn't get any nibbles from People or any other magazines for paid/exclusive stories, then I suppose they have plenty of motivation ($$) to play extra nice with TLC. I don't know anything about these two. Is Joe a strong personality who's likely to stand up to his parents and go against their wishes? Have Kendra's fundie parents turned her over to her new headship (Joe), so that now they won't interfere with Joe's decisions about their life? Or are the Caldwells still calling some shots or at least giving Kendra their opinions and advice?
