Jessa Duggar Not Pregnant, Contrary To Reports
Jessa Duggar is not pregnant. Reports swirled that the reality star was pregnant with her and her husband, Ben Seewald’s third child earlier this week.
Duggar Rumor Control
A Duggar family source spoke out and said she is not expecting, despite rumors that claimed the reality star is four months along. One insider claimed Wednesday that Duggar would announce her pregnancy in April.
She and Seewald were said to be staying quiet about the baby news because it was too early to tell the public. They also said she didn’t want to take attention from her brother Josiah Duggar’s upcoming wedding to Lauren Swanson.
While Duggar isn't pregnant right now, the Duggar family will still have an abundance of little ones. Jinger Duggar is expecting and Joy-Anna Forsyth (formerly Duggar) and her husband Austin had their first child together earlier this year.
Jessa and Ben's Full House
For now, Jessa, 25, and Seewald, 22, are only parents to their two sons, 2-year-old Spurgeon, and Henry, 13 months. It’s safe to say the two boys are keeping them busy enough.
Seewald said on a recent episode of the family’s TLC show Counting On, that the two are still getting used to being parents of two boys. He explained that they have lots more diapers and subsequently have to take out the trash more often.
Still, he added that it wasn’t anything he didn’t see coming and said he and Jessica experience both calm and hectic days.
Baby Henry's Health Scare
Jessa and Seewald are also giving extra care to their youngest son, Henry. Jessa revealed he suffered from a skin disease she first thought was cradle cap. She explained that she soon realized it was possibly eczema.
“Henry has some pretty bad flare ups on his head and in his neck creases and so we have to keep socks on his hands to keep him from scratching it,” said Jessa.
At the same time, he also experienced allergies that Jessa couldn’t get to the root of initially.
“I’m trying to address what’s irritating his stomach and trying to eliminate things from my diet [to] see what’s up [with his allergies],” said Jessa.
She said she found a resolution in removing inflammatory foods such as gluten, nuts, corn, and dairy until she can find out what the true issue is with his allergies.
Jessa and Seewald tied the knot at First Baptist Church in Bentonville, Arkansas. More than 1,000 guests attended the wedding in 2014.
