"19 Kids and Counting" star Jessa Duggar-Seewald flaunted her growing baby bump in a mirror selfie she recently shared on Instagram. It was the first time fans got to see the 23-year-old mother-to-be's loaded tummy since the announcement of her pregnancy back on April 21. 

Notably, Jessa already showed her baby bump off in a photo where she stood next to Jill, who was pregnant at that time, and Anna (Josh's wife), although it was not as prominent as it is today. The snap was posted by Anna the same day Jessa announced she is going to be a mother. 

Jessa also revealed that she is already 16 weeks and a day pregnant with Baby Seewald when she posted the photo, which showed her in a t-shirt and jeans as she caressed her baby belly. International Business Times notes that the photo may have been taken in the Arkansas home of Jessa's parents. 

The reality star also loves to share and read about her first baby's development, showing how excited she is to become a mother to another one of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar's burgeoning pack of adorable grandkids. But apart from the arrival of her little one, Jessa has a lot to celebrate. 

Her husband Ben just graduated from college. She was there in National Park Community College when her man received his diploma (blowing Jessa a kiss as he did). Ben recently turned 20 and the mommy-to-be told her "best friend and favorite person in the whole wide world" how blessed she is with the love of her life by her side in a lengthy post she shared on Instagram.
