The Duggar Family Expecting Their 18th Child

The Duggar family (who have been featured on TLC shows many times) are just a normal family that live in a 7, 000 square foot home, have all their children (10 boys and 7 girls, and two sets of twins) names starting with the letter J and are home schooled in Arkansas. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that 41-year old, Michelle, is expecting her 18th child, due on New Year’s Day.

The couple’s oldest child is Josh, is 20 and the youngest, Jennifer, is 9 months old.

Congratulations go out the the couple!

  1. Those kids are going to have such issues!!!

  2. Their show is actually on Discovery Health Channel, and TLC. They’re everywhere!!!

    I am torn when it comes to this family. I believe that their sexist household is frightening. Women scrubbing floors, while the menfolk handle “real work” — Oy. How’s that for a recipe for disaster? I also think it’s a little weird that the older kids virtually raise their younger siblings.

    I also really wonder how much one human body can take. Reallly, does her OB think the average woman can birth 18 children?

    However, I respect that there is something frighteningly peaceful about them. They know they are mocked by today’s society, somewhat, and they don’t care. They truly believe in the life they’ve chosen, and they live it well.
    So, I suppose it’s a to-each-their-own, type thought.
    I have to confess, I can’t wait to see their show on DiscoveryHealth, because it looks like a series, long-term, not just one show.

    I can’t find previews online, but I did see these:
    Wonder how Michelle Duggar feels about Quads w.Two Moms! LOL}!!!

    And this looks like one of those dateline things: Women who didn’t know they were pregnant.
