Jessa Duggar has taken a leaf out of her sister Jill's book as she continues to chronicle her pregnancy milestones on social media. Recently, the former "19 Kids and Counting" star took to Instagram to update her fans about her pregnancy as she uploaded a new selfie which highlights her growing baby bump. 

On Wednesday, Aug. 5, Jessa posted a picture of her wearing a pink shirt with the number 81 on it. Her hair, which she normally wears in loose waves, was styled in a bun, and the photo was captioned, "27 weeks 3 days!"

Jessa and husband Ben Seewald have yet to reveal the gender of their baby, but many of her Instagram followers speculate that she might be carrying a girl. 

Although the Duggar's reality show has been cancelled, Jessa continues to be active on social media as she regularly posts pictures to let her followers know how far along she is in her pregnancy. She is currently in the third trimester, and is expected to give birth to her first child on Nov. 1. The couple made the baby announcement in April. 

As the 22-year-old reality TV star waits for the birth of her child, she makes sure to spend some time with her younger siblings and nephews and nieces. Last month, she posted a picture with the younger Duggar children playing a card game, and on Tuesday, she shared a photo of her cuddling her three-week old niece, Meredith Grace.
