Could another Duggar grandbaby be possibly on the way? Rumor has it that Jessa Duggar is already pregnant with her third baby, but the family from "Counting On" has yet to confirm it.

A source who has mutual friends with the Duggar family created a Reddit thread and alleged that Jessa has another baby on the way.

"I have some insider news... Jessa is preggers!" the insider wrote. "I have evangelical family members who live near Fayetteville and they run with the same crowd as the Duggars, who they mingle with sometimes. I visited them last week/weekend and my cousin took me and my one-year-old with her and her kids to a group playdate thing at someone's house, and Jessa was there with her boys."

The insider claimed that Jessa and some other moms kept mostly to themselves, and gave off a vibe off "exclusivity" so she dared not talk to the reality star. But just by looking at her, the insider can tell that she is pregnant.

"I got the vibe that she disliked outsiders outsiders so I didn't try to talk to her. But she had a noticeable baby bump. Her shirt was somewhat tight so it was obvious that she was pregnant and definitely past the stage of eating too much for dinner the previous night. She appeared 3-4 months pregnant," the insider added.

This post came after several fans of the Duggar family began speculating that she is expecting. The suspicions began forming after Jessa and her husband, Ben Seewald, created a video congratulating her sister, Joy-Anna, because of her pregnancy. The placement of Ben's hand made fans believe that he is cradling another baby in her belly. Add to that, Jessa is also wearing a loose-fitting dress.

"So when will Jessa be making her announcement too? She totally looks preggers too," a family fan wrote on Facebook. "Waiting for Jessa's announcement!" another added.
