Has she worked since she married?

We have no proof one way or the other.

Where is the video posted? Not seeing anything on People or TLC.

Hoping Abbie is getting real prenatal care and doesn't use someone like Jessa's 'midwife'. I'm not asking for much here Jabbie.

Congrats. Too bad another innocent baby born into a cult. Of course it was pilot theme announcement. What else would it be? Amelia's a good name but not sure they'd pick it cause women aren't can't be pilots in their world.

Abbie’s dad is John. Her brother is John Clay. Her husband is John David. 

in all seriousness, John will likely be in the name somewhere if they have a boy. 

John Jett Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt?

Any word on how far along she is?

A couple pages back someone posited she was almost halfway.

Never fails, take a day off Duggar watching and somebody's announcing something. I get the impression this thread wasn't hot for long as most of us were expecting this. Looks like they won't be breaking the JinJer record for happily married childless time.

Hope they're happy, that it's a safe healthy pregnancy, and that their child will never experience blanket training or other spiritual abuse.

My morning sickness started long before any positive test with everyone of my pregnancies. My first pregnancy I seriously thought I had a severe stomach bug. It's possible she's the same way and had no way to recognize the feeling of morning being it's her first. That would explain the finding out at urgent care it "not being how she planned to find out".

[Italiangirl]

If she is having twins when she will found about? When she will go to get the sex ultrasound? Or is it possible she already knew and just want to wait to share it?

Is that kid the son of Jason Lee?

Or the son of fans of Jason Lee?

Interesting, maybe they weren't trying and got a surprise. I like the gender remark. I think he meant it sarcastically. 

It’s safe to assume they have unprotected sex. And both said they wanted children so why would they be surprised. I am pretty sure all women in this family monitor their cycle. Even if just to have a feeling when period is about to hit. I call bullshit at the surprise. They are always surprised. Every single time. I get bring surprised when it happens straight away but after that- no.

When we tried to conceive I monitored my cycle. So as soon as my ovulation was over I knew there was a chance to be pregnant. When my period was late I knew the chances were even higher.

They probably went to urgent care because she felt sick/wanted a doctor to have a look but already knew it was a good possibility.

I'm hoping they'll have a sensible hospital birth.

Are JD and Jana still close?

Well , according to their cult, JDs an adult now, and Jana is still a kid. She’ll be useful again when they need a baby sitter.

I have a feeling they will become close again when the baby is born. She will likely help out at least a little bit. Jana is like Michael Bates. She’s the oldest daughter who is also childless. It’s probably expected for her to help out with a baby when she’s around.

Abbie could have an irregular cycle. She might get periods once every few months. She and JD might even think she has fertility issues because of that (that's how my sister got her oops baby). So it isn't a stretch to say that they genuinely thought she was sick, went to urgent care and, surprise, found out she was pregnant.

I know they always say they're surprised, but these two mixed up the formula  by saying they found out at urgent care. Why add that very specific detail if it wasn't true? Neither seems like a fame whore who has to stand out from the other Duggar spawn by making up a more interesting story. 

Michelle said she monitors her cycle, but did the other girls say that? And technically Abbie isn't a woman from that family, she's a woman from her maiden name's family. Most likely do, but who knows what each individual does unless they say.

Abbie’s mom is not a fertile Myrtle like Michelle. She had her kids every two years (except twins of course) and her last kid was at 40. It would be better if Abbie and JD have kids spaced every 2 years like her mom but no identical twins. Then she won’t end up with a crazy huge family.

Can you really get an ultrasound photo that clear? I was glad my kids didn’t want to show their face so the ultrasound. They kept their hands at their face all the time. I kind of liked the surprise of what they looked like at birth.

[singsingsing]

Pretty sure she’s not having twins, unless they haven’t done any ultrasounds yet. In their Instagram post they talk about having their own child singular to raise.

[HarleyQuinn]

That looks like some serious photoshop for that ultrasound photo.

Thank you. I am one of these people and was going to say this. My irregular cycles had no tracking/predictability factor. We are rare but we exist. I found out about #2 this way. You'd think I'd have known better, but we totally were not expecting it, even with no protection, didn't believe it could happen. Hands down the happiest day of my life EVER.

12 years ago, I had a few 4-D ultrasounds with my youngest. My OBGYN did them during the 3rd trimester at times, so she could get a look at some things. The pictures were shockingly good. She flat out refused to do 4-D any earlier than the 3rd trimester, because, in her words "fetuses look like space aliens and it freaks out the Mom." I think I fell in love with her that day.
