Another Duggar is is expecting! Jessa (Duggar) Seewald, and new husband, Ben Seewald, are expecting their first child the couple announced on Tuesday. Jessa, 22 is the third daughter of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar and Ben, 19, is the oldest of seven children.

 

Not only will the couple be celebrating their first wedding anniversary on November 1st, but possibly their new baby's arrival. "We are looking forward to being parents," Ben told People.com. They are sharing their news as Jessa begins her third trimester, something older sister, Jill, didn't do. "I am feeling pretty good. The morning sickness was different every day. It's getting better, but I'm still hanging on to the heartburn." The couple found out after Jessa took a pregnancy test before church. She tells People, "I said, 'Hey Ben, Guess what? Yeah, you're a dad.' We couldn't believe it." In earlier interviews they had mentioned adoption. "We hope to adopt a lot of kids. If God blesses us with biological kids of our own, it's not going got quench our desire to adopt." Apparently their feelings haven't changed. "We are still making plans." The agency they have contacted requires prospective parents to be married for at least two years.

 

In their special clip on TLC the couple hinted at possibly two babies. While talking about making extra smoothies soon, the couple held up a baby bottle and Ben said, "Maybe more than one!" with Jessa giggling, "You never know". If that wasn't suspect enough, Jessa asks Ben what he thinks the baby's sex may be. He responds with, "It could be both" as he sheepishly grins. "I kind of think it's a boy," she replies. At only 12 weeks along they don't know the gender but if there are two in there they would have some idea.
