Jill Duggar pregnancy update: Baby due date in March, preparations continue

The big and jolly Duggar family is close to welcoming Jill and Derrick Dillard's first baby and the clan just can't wait to meet him. An "unforgettable" baby shower was held for him, too. Indeed the baby boy the couple fondly calls Dilly will be here soon. The mother-to-be is at the 35th week of her pregnancy, which means that sometime next month, a new Duggar tot will be gracing the enormous household. 

"I feel great. I feel really good," Jill, who is now on her third trimester, told People Magazine.

"He's moving around a lot and doing a lot of rolling," she went on to say about her baby who kicks a lot.

The 23-year-old plans to deliver at her home — an idea she shares with her sister-in-law Anna Duggar, who is also pregnant with her and Josh's fourth child.

"We're getting the birthing pool, things like that. We have a bassinet and a crib," Derick told the aforementioned publication. 

Jill and Anna even posed for a snap to show off their growing baby bumps on Instagram. 

The Duggar family is prepping up for the big day, too. According to IB Times, Jill's older sister Jana, who also happens to be a midwife expert, will be by her sister's side when she delivers.

"My sisters, mom and Derick's mom are available as errand runners," Jill shared. 

"19 Kids and Counting" is now on season 9. The latest episode of the show titled "Jill's Secret" showed fans how Derrick and Jill broke the news about the baby to the family.

The new season will also show Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald's wedding, which happened back on Nov. 1 last year. Fans also wish to see the couple bearing the baby news next. But while that has yet to transpire, the two expressed their plans on creating a big family of their own and this may involve adoption.
