Jill Duggar and her husband, Derick Dillard announced they were expecting their second child back in December. Speculation of a second pregnancy rose when Duggar was photographed with a little bump around the Thanksgiving holiday. The couple announced the news on Facebook and immediately fans went to guess what the sex of their second child would be.
The newest Dillard revealed
Today, it was announced that Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard would be preparing for another son. They are welcoming a little boy in July, with their oldest child being just over two at the time the baby is born.
Fans are excited for the couple to be having another boy and for the pregnancy to be going well. Duggar is going to be a "boymom," something many women are incredibly proud to be.
Of course, Jessa Duggar is about to give birth any day now. She has kept the gender of her child a secret from the public, just as she did the first time around. Speculation is that she is having another boy as well due to the fact that she refused gifts at her most recent baby shower. If Duggar and Ben Seewald were having a girl, surely they would need girly-themed items.
Misson work on hold
Now that Jill Duggar is pregnant again, she needs to remain at home. There was grave concern for her while she was doing her mission work in El Salvador last year.
The Zika virus was a real concern and fans were worried that she may contract it if she turned up pregnant down there. Fortunately, Duggar didn't end up pregnant until she returned home to help with Jinger's wedding preparations. After that, they decided to stay for the holidays and now, they will remain until the baby is born in the summer.
There is some controversy surrounding the mission work and where the donations are going if they aren't serving.
With Jill and Jessa Duggar having babies so close once again, they are setting themselves up for having cousins around all the time. They are both incredibly happy to be expanding their families. Fans are excited for the sisters, and are eager to find out what Jessa Duggar will have.
