As early as now, Jill Duggar and husband Derick Dillard are already assured that their soon-to-be born child will get lots of love from the people around them.
Last week, the couple received their first baby shower from Derick's co-workers at their local Wal-Mart. He posted a photo of the event with some of their family members on his Instagram account. His caption said, "Thank you to my awesome team at work for putting on an unforgettable baby shower for Jill and me! #babydilly #19kids #firstbabyshowerexperience"
Jill's growing baby bump is pretty obvious in the photo. It shows her wearing a bright blue cardigan on top of a white shirt and striped skirt. Derick, on the other hand, was comfortably dressed in a navy button down shirt and dark trousers.
In the recent episode of the hit TLC reality show "19 Kids and Counting," which stars Jill and Derick as well as Jill's large family, the couple just announced the pregnancy in front of the family. The couple made the announcement by suddenly barging in into the Duggar home while the family was conducting its nightly Bible session, and joked about confessing something. Jill acted embarrassed in front of her family, and told them that she "stole" something from her mother Michelle.
Then Derick made the big announcement.
He said, "We had taken a couple of pregnancy tests earlier and they were negative. We actually found out that it was positive yesterday. We're expecting!"
The entire Duggar family was ecstatic about the news, especially the Duggar patriarch Jim Bob, who dreams of having lots of grandchildren from all of their 19 children.
Jill is currently in the final stretch of her pregnancy. Their first child, who happens to be a boy, is due to come out on March 24.
"19 Kids and Counting" is now airing its new season, which highlights Jill's pregnancy and Jessa's wedding preparations. The show airs every Tuesday on TLC.
