Tasya August 15, 2019 Share August 15, 2019 Neither one of them looks truly happy. Both of them have HUGE bags under their eyes as if they aren't getting any rest at all. I bet that Josiah forces himself to be intimate with her and as oblivious as we all think she is, she's not that dumb. She probably cries herself to sleep every night. I think that her "look at me" antics are because she's desperately unhappy at home. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/68169-josiah-and-lauren-he-has-to-marry-somebody/page/77/#findComment-5527135

That means that couple didn't even get to celebrate their first wedding anniversary at all. Not to mention the numerous times we've heard about couples getting married in the hospital just so they can have that moment knowing that the sick person has only days to live. But please Lauren do tell us how you've had "more" downs than ANY newly married couple. I was reading in the news the other day about a couple where the husband drowned ON HIS HONEYMOON! I mean, I honestly don't think Josiah and Lauren have had a great first year with the miscarriage, his grandmother dying, and them not seeming to like each other, but both of them being above ground is nothing to sniff at.

Het miscarriage was life shattering in her mind since this is the first real tragedy she has faced in her 20 years on earth. I hate to play the tragedy olympics with her but it does grate to hear her whine. The older I get the more appreciative I am that there was no social media when I was 19-20.

She has her own weird fundie family, and she may not care that all kinds of Duggars are having daughters at the same time because she is the only one in HER FAMILY that is having a baby at that time. She's the eldest daughter in a large fundie family, isn't she? It's possible that she's as starved for attention and affection as any Duggar. It could be that some of her insufferable self-absorption is simply her basking in getting ANY attention at all. Maybe she's just that awful, but maybe she is as broken as any of the Duggars (or maybe she's both?). 2 23 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/68169-josiah-and-lauren-he-has-to-marry-somebody/page/77/#findComment-5542428

Temperance August 21, 2019 Share August 21, 2019 (edited) Lauren and her family were in the same circles as the Duggars for a very long time. They were at Zach Bates's wedding. They were at Jill and Derick's wedding. Derick released a long version of their wedding for their 5th anniversary. The first twenty minutes or so was people entering the church including David and Priscilla Waller (+kids), the Bates family, and the Swansons among others. Lauren is sister-momming for her mother and looking somewhat disinterested while still doing what needs to be done. She is definitely from their world and I think that's the main reason she got married to Josiah. Her family also attends events like Big Sandy. I think she's overdramatic, but I also feel like she seems somewhat depressed and that marriage is big adjustment for her.

So they were pregnant at the same time but not due at the same time. They were likely due 4-6 weeks apart. Unless I'm missing something and Meech's birthday is a month later.
