'19 Kids and Counting' Jill Duggar pregnancy update: baby due date next week!

The stork will be visiting the Dillard household anytime soon, which means that Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard's firstborn son is ready to see the world in the coming days. 

Early this week, the excited soon-to-be parents headed over to Texas for a little "babymoon" before Baby Dilly comes out from his mother's womb sometime next week. Some expected the reality show stars to welcome their first child in Texas, but Derick's recent Instagram post announced that Baby Dilly might be waiting until his parents got back home in Arkansas before making his grand entrance. 

In the photo that he shared, Derick was sporting a cute statement shirt that aptly reads, "This guy is going to be a daddy," while the very pretty and beaming Jill showed off her baby bump, which seems ready to pop. 

"We had a great time with family on vacation, but it doesn't look like we're going to have a Texas baby #familyvacation #babydilly #19kids," the caption reads. 

In a recent interview with E!, the couple said that they are preparing for the baby's arrival by taking Bradley Method classes, where the husbands are taught how to help their wives while in labor. Jill said that the classes are perfect for them, since she really wants her husband to be with her when the time comes. 

As the fourth of the 19 Duggar children born to Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, Jill said that she and her husband are planning to ask a midwife to stay with them at home when she feels that she is ready to give birth, and Derek will act as the coach to help her during the entire process. 

Over the past weeks, Jill and Derick were given several baby showers by family and friends to celebrate the arrival of the baby. If Baby Dilly will choose to arrive on time next week, he will be sharing his parents' birth month, which also happens to be March.
