Baby 19 for The Duggar Family of Arkansas
by The Duggar family from Arkansas, USA have a super sized family of 19 children. Their recent addition has arrived a little earlier than expected.
Image via Wikipedia
The Duggar parents are known for their TV show “18 Kids and counting”. Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar were expecting baby number 19 in March 2010. Unfortunately health issues for Michelle made the doctors decide to bring the little girl into the world three months early (December 2009).
The little girl has been named as Josie Brooklyn and weigh in at the grand weight of 1lb 6oz. She is the lowest birth weight child Michelle Duggar has produced.
The Baptist parents have been married for 25 years and state that each child is a gift from God. They fund themselves and have recently celebrated the birth of their first grand child.
So the latest addition to the large family, is younger than her niece. It does seem as if Josie Duggar is not going to be the last child the couple will produce either. So will Arkansas see another Duggar arrival in a year or so?

They seem to young to have so many children.
If they are planning on additional little Duggers they may have to change the name of the show.

Im sorry, I find this absolutely DISGUSTING!…
welcome to the world – you are one of 6.8 BILLION people pushing the planet to the limits.
the baby was NOT a gift from God, it was a gift from the medical profession who are acting like gods rather than letting the pregancy run its normal (natural and god imposed) course.
To me these people are nothing but igorant, brainwashed by their religion to have so many freaking kids.

They fund themselves by putting their family on a tv show? Funny how they have made celebrities out of themselves, isnt that sort of vanity a sin?
