The Duggars Expecting 19th Child

Catherine McDiarmid-Watt | Tuesday, September 01, 2009 | 1 comments

The Learning Channel is going to have to change the name of "18 Kids and Counting," as the Duggar family announced this morning that they will be welcoming their 19th child in March.

Matriarch Michelle Duggar, 43, appeared on the "Today" show this morning to announce she is nearly three months pregnant. She and her husband, Jim Bob, live in Arkansas with their expansive clan, which ranges from 21-year-old Josh to 8-month-old Jordyn-Grace.

Josh and his wife Anna are expecting their first child, a girl to be named Mackynzie Renee, in October.

Michelle and Jim Bob said they are looking forward to their first grandchild and their next baby with equal enthusiasm.

About Catherine: I am mom to three grown sons, two grandchildren and two rescue dogs. After years of raising my boys as a single mom, I remarried a wonderful man who had never had a child of his own. Unexpectedly, I found myself pregnant at 49!
Sadly we lost our precious baby at 8 weeks, and decided to try again. Five more losses, turned down for donor egg, foster care and adoption due to my age and losses - we have accepted there will be no more babies in our house.
