Jill Duggar Releases New Photo of Baby Bump; Reps Refuse to Comment on Jessa Pregnancy
Jill Duggar Dillard, star of "19 Kids & Counting" has released a new photo of her growing baby bump while sister Jessa has refused to comment on whether or not she is pregnant.
Jill has documented her pregnancy from the time she and husband went public with the news; they are expecting a baby boy in the spring and have shared every major milestone with their fans. For Christmas, Jill wrapped her belly up as a present, with the gift tag reading: "To Jill & Derick, From God." Now at 28 weeks, Jill and Derick are even closer to becoming first-time parents.
"Well, ultimately, we want to be an example for them," Derick told The Christian Post when asked about what he hopes to teach his children. "And just be the best dad I can be to both my sons and daughters and really purpose to teach them the Word of God early on and pray that they will come to the Lord early in life. And helping them be open, not afraid to come to us about anything."

With baby Dilly, as he is being called, due in the spring, the Duggar and Dillard families are celebrating the couple's first baby. They are hoping to continue having children after the first makes his entrance, much like the Duggar family. With 18 brothers and sisters, Jill is well-versed in taking care of children and being around large families.
"It's really exciting just thinking about being parents," Jill told CP. "I'm sure we'll be getting plenty of advice from our parents. I've always dreamed of being a mother and having kids and so, it's something that I've prepared for while growing up and taking care of babies and loving on them."
Meanwhile, as rumors continue to grow about whether or not Jill's sister Jessa, who married in Nov., is pregnant, the family is remaining silent. The Christian Post reached out to the Duggar family's reps for comment but did not receive any confirmation or denial of pregnancy.
