Jessa Duggar is well into her second trimester as she gave fans an update about her pregnancy.

On Sunday, June 14, the mother-to-be shared on Instagram a video of her sonogram, where she revealed that she is starting to feel her child's kicks. She captioned the video, "#BabySeewald is growing fast! Already practicing swallowing, sucking a thumb, and actively moving arms and legs! So excited at the feeling of these first baby kicks!" 

The "19 Kids and Counting" star also included Psalm 139: 13-38 in the caption. The video was set to Andrew Peterson's 2010 song "World Traveler."  

Jessa also shared a picture of herself wearing a black t-shirt and her long hair styled in a side braid. It was simply captioned, "20 weeks."

The 22-year old is taking a page from her sister Jill Duggar's book as she has begun to post what is likely to be many pregnancy milestone photos. 

Just five months after tying the knot last November, Jessa and her husband Ben Seewald announced in April that they are expecting their first child. Jessa posted a pregnancy announcement on Instagram, which shows her kissing her husband beside a baby onesie that read: "Coming Soon."  

The new posts came after the Duggar family underwent a lot of scrutiny due to Jessa's brother Josh's molestation scandal. Since the scandal came to light in May, the future of their show has been uncertain as TLC has taken remaining episodes of their reality show off the air. There is no word yet whether the network will renew or cancel "19 Kids and Counting."
