NUMBER 19 caught Michelle Duggar by surprise. The 42-year-old mother of 18 noticed that she wasn't losing weight despite her eating program.
So she took a pregnancy test. "And lo and behold, I was just pleasantly surprised that this was positive," Mrs Duggar said yesterday.
"I was just jumping up and down going, 'Thank you, Lord. Here am I – 42, thinking my baby days are over – and you've blessed us with another one'."
Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar live in Tontitown, Arkansas, and are featured with their family on TLC television's 18 Kids and Counting.
The announcement of the Duggars' 19th child comes as their oldest, 21-year-old Josh, is about to become a father himself. Married last year, Josh and Anna Duggar are expecting their first child, a girl, on October 18.
Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar are soliciting name suggestions for the new baby, who will join their family of 10 boys and eight girls. The Duggars' 18 children all have names starting with the letter J and include two sets of twins. Along with Josh there are Jana and John-David, 19; Jill, 18; Jessa, 16; Jinger, 15; Joseph, 14; Josiah, 13; Joy-Anna, 11; Jeremiah and Jedidiah, 10; Jason, 9; James, 8; Justin, 6; Jackson, 5; Johannah, 3; Jennifer, 2; and Jordyn-Grace, 8 months.
