'19 Kids and Counting' Jill Duggar pregnancy, Jessa Duggar wedding to Ben Seewald update

"19 Kids and Counting" stars and sisters Jill and Jessa Duggar are in cloud nine. Jill recently wed Derick Dillard and she is now pregnant with Baby Dilly, while Jessa and fiancé Ben Seewald are making their way to tie the knot really soon. Love is surely in the air in the Duggar household.

Jill and Derick have been posting photos of Jill's baby bump on Instagram. The latest one shows Jill on her second trimester at exactly 13 weeks and one day. The caption reads, "In our second trimester now! "Baby Dilly" is now the size of a fuzzy sweet Georgia peach!"

The new husband and wife are also busy with Baby Dilly's registry. They've already picked several things for the baby.

While Jill's pregnancy won't be seen on this season's "19 Kids and Counting," there's hope that it will be featured on the next season if the show is reordered. This season will focus on Jill and Derick's wedding planning and their wedding.

Also to be featured this season is Jessa and Ben's courtship, but in real time, the two are already engaged and planning their wedding. The couple decided to have a simple wedding – this is to allow them to save money and have the wedding sooner. JimBob Duggar allowed Ben to temporarily move in to their home so he and Jessa can plan their wedding together, given that Ben is still studying in college, too.

They have also gotten their wedding registry at Bed, Bath and Beyond and Amazon. Some of the items included in the registry are a $900 computer, gift cards, and some cheaper items like a wooden chopping board, reports Ecumenical.

Fans should know that Jessa actually met Ben earlier than Jill met Derick. They've been courting longer so it's about time that the two walk down the aisle and take the vow.

With the Duggar tradition of short engagements, the wedding will take place on Nov. 1. The proposal, wedding planning, and wedding might also be featured in the next season together with Jill's pregnancy.

Certainly, the Duggar Family is growing. What used to be a family of 19 will now be 21, plus a grandchild.
