The Seewalds still have yet to decide what they will call their little boy, telling the news outlet that they want to choose a name with meaning that will suit their son for the rest of his life.
The article includes exclusive photos of the family of three, as well as the details of Jessa's long labor that made her come close to requesting a transfer to the hospital and an epidural.
But the first-time mom powered through and successfully delivered Baby Seewald at home just before 7:00pm on Thursday. Jessa and Ben were the only ones who knew that their child was a boy, so you can imagine the excitement from both the Duggar and Seewald families when they found out the gender of the newest addition.
Immediately following the birth, the midwife became concerned about the amount of blood Jessa was losing, so Michelle called 911, and the new mom was taken to the emergency room for a blood transfusion. She had to leave her son for a short time, but Baby Seewald was soon brought to the hospital to join his mother.
Mom and baby are healthy, and the Seewalds are settling into life with a newborn. For more info, check out this week's issue of PEOPLE.
Thank you so much for this update! Will you please post what's written in the PEOPLE article so we don't all have to buy the magazine to learn more? Thank you. :)
ReplyDeleteGlad to know more of what happened. It's neat how nobody but Jessa and Ben knew about it being a boy.
ReplyDeleteHappy for the Seawald family. Thankful Jessa and baby are healthy and well.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I am sure many of those that appreciate the faith of this family - would not be interested in reading People magazine. I find it sad that they release their important personal life moments in a way that seems motivated by money - and use outlets that many of those interested in their life - would not even purchase. We are "in" the world, but are not to be "of" the world.
Happy for you Ben and Jessa wishing you the best with your new little man.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, he's adorable, just want to give possible name Elijah Benjamin
ReplyDeleteGlad you are feeling better jessa

Jessa looks so tired in this picture god bless her thank god she has a lot of support from her loving family. Take it easy jessa.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing. So glad Jessa managed and the midwife did such a proactive job.
ReplyDeleteAll the best to their little family.
Congrats on your beautiful baby I'm anxiously awaiting your new show I miss you guys my boyfriend and I had the pleasure of meeting Jill Derek Israel and Derek's mom Cathy? In Rogers they are wonderful people gGod bless you all
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone else wonder why any of the Duggar's are openly associating with People Magazine? People threw them under the bus the first chance they could, yet they still associate with them? I wish they would stand up to this and NOT associate with the ungodly media! I get professing their faith, yet this points more to money and attention in my eyes then faith. Would love to hear other thoughts.
ReplyDeleteI still think Judah is such a cute name for a boy.:-) What a cute little family!
ReplyDeleteThanks for this article I feel a little bit better Of knowing Perhaps she is okay
ReplyDeleteIt's disturbing that they have chosen People magazine through which to tell their story. Why not a Christian publication? People magazine is a trashy magazine. Would their family or the Duggars buy a People magazine? I would have doubted it but now makes me wonder.
ReplyDeleteNaming a firstborn son is serious to alot of people. I know it was for us...my husband is a sole surviving heir- 4th generation. So we obviously had to ponder wether or not to make him a junior..but my husband wasn't a junior. We decided against that, but still wanted to give him a family name.. but my older brother had already claimed my Dad's name for his firstborn. We lucked out with "Markus" because my Dad's middle name is Mark and my husband's grandfather was Marcus. We swapped the C for a K, in order to honor both, and gave him my husband's first name as his middle. Jessa and Ben have so many family members. I'm sure they want to give their son a special name, without any repeats...and without slighting anyone. I kinda think they should just stick with Quincy.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear the name!! Thank the lord that Jesse didn't have something more serious.
ReplyDeleteHow about Jack Thomas for your baby's name. I think Jack is a strong name for a man.
ReplyDeleteMiss your show,

ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing thswonderful news about the baby. Miss the Druggers so much and I loved following them each week. Best wishes on this little piece of joy and may God richly bless your lovely family.
Awww, it was too bad she was talked out of transferring to the hospital during her labor. She could have avoided that whole scary ordeal and spent the whole time with her new baby. Instead she was separated from her baby for that very special first night together. Glad they are both doing well now, he's adorable! (the name- not so much)
ReplyDeleteJessa is GORGEOUS!She is naturally so amazing!She looks great without make up.She has such great hair and facial features!Shes so lucky!
ReplyDeletePerfect family!Love you guys!xo
ReplyDeletePoor Jessa I feel so bad her labor was so hard I know how bad it hurts natural!Especially after the year she had!
