'19 Kids and Counting' Jill Duggar Pregnant, Couple Reveals Baby On the Way
News that Jill Duggar, reality star of '19 Kids and Counting', is pregnant, is not only exciting for the newlyweds, but for the fans of the show as well.
The couple in their recent talk with ABC News officially announced that they are having a baby and he or she is due in March. According to the couple, it was a surprise for them to find out that they are having a baby.
Duggar, now named Jill Dillard recently recalled taking a couple of pregnancy tests and having negative results, "My sisters were asking if I was pregnant and I'm like 'nooo' and they're like 'Well, mom has pregnancy tests upstairs and you could be pregnant so you should take one!'" Dillard told People magazine.
"It was more like to prove them wrong -- like, I'm not pregnant, I'm going to show you so.' Well," Dillard continued.
The '19 Kids and Counting' star seems really excited with the news and revealed that she always wanted to have many kids, "Both of us want as many kids as God will give us. My parents have kept popping them out so we'll see how [our] fertility is!" Dillard told ABC news.
Even Dillard's husband, Derick is quite ecstatic about the idea. According to the couple, they even plan on adopting besides having their biological children. "We'll just see what God brings along and it's exciting," Derick told ABC news.
From saying their vows last June 21 at the Cross Church in Springdale, to sharing their first kiss, the couple is now headed towards the rewarding experience and joys of parenthood.
On side note, just days after the new baby announcement, Jessa Dugger became engaged to Ben Seewald.
