Jessa and Ben Seewald are eagerly awaiting the arrival of their second child, due February 2nd. The photo on the left shows Jessa in October 2015 when she was 36 weeks pregnant with Spurgeon Seewald, and the picture on the right is how she looks now.
Spurgeon will be 15 months old when the new baby arrives. Jessa and Ben are keeping the gender of their unborn child a secret, like they did with their first pregnancy. Do you think they are expecting a boy or a girl? Do you have any name suggestions?

ReplyDeleteif they have a boy how about david james.
ReplyDeleteSpurgeon was named after Charles Spurgeon Elliot or something like that, and when he died his wife stayed on the mission field they have told us. I dont remember her name, but maybe after her.
ReplyDeleteCharles Spurgeon and Jim Elliott. Jim Elliot died on the mission field. His wife's name is Elizabeth. Both men are incredible examples of godliness. A great legacy to live up to.
DeleteActually, it's Elisabeth Elliott. It's spelled with a s instead of a z.
DeleteGirl. Otherwise, I doubt she'd do all the belly comparison selfies.
ReplyDeleteThat's a really smart observation anon 2:29!
DeleteI hope she is not that pridefull :'(, children are a blessing when they are enjoyed for just them. I really dislike it when it is just about the gender.
DeleteI think baby is another boy! 😊
ReplyDeleteOh honey, your back... Don't thrust your baby bump out like that. Posture!
ReplyDeleteShe looks smaller this time. Good, because the last delivery was way too tough for her to attempt at home. Hope she goes to a hospital this time, so they don't end up calling 911 again.
It looks like the angle to me not her posture. I imagine she will give birth however she feels comfortable
DeleteI too think she looks smaller this time
DeleteThe what her back curves it looks as if she's trying to protrude out more. I'd say posture too
DeleteI think girl. Girl: Korice
ReplyDeleteLooks like a little girl this time around.
ReplyDeleteI'm team girl. She's smaller!
ReplyDeleteI hope it's a girl this time. I suggest the name Susannah Elisabeth...after Charles Spurgeon and Jim Elliot's wives. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, I like that idea. I think that they said that they were not going to stick with the same letter for all of their children, so maybe turn it around and make a girl's name be Elisabeth Susannah.
Deletewell well it looks like a girl this time good luck guys who cares as long its healthy .little man looks awsome just like the parent love youse .
ReplyDeleteI want to see jill baby bump
DeleteI like the name Arabella
ReplyDeleteGirl. But either way it is a bundle of joy.
ReplyDeleteI hope it will be a girl
ReplyDeleteif its a boy james and its a girl sarah
ReplyDeletesomething from the bible if its a boy Daniel if its a girl Sarah they both from bible and strong names
ReplyDeleteit looks like she is carrying low it could be a girl
ReplyDeletewhat ever she has he/she will be beautiful just like baby S
ReplyDeleteBoy
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure but for a girl I will guess Abigail Rose or if they are sticking with an S theme I will guess Sarah Rose. For a boy I will guess Samuel David or Stephen Matthew.
ReplyDeleteShe is carting high, so I think it is a girl!
ReplyDelete^carrying
ReplyDeleteA girl with a normal name.
ReplyDeletehaha! that made me chuckle ;)
DeleteHahaha, me to. At least he will be 'blessed' enough to get homeschooled ;)
Deletei think its another boy cant wait to see what is gonna be
ReplyDeleteI hope its a girl! LOVE her shirt on the right picture.
ReplyDeletewhy does she feel the need to arch her back and push her belly out
ReplyDeleteWhy do you think?
DeleteI think she's having a girl! She's so beautiful inside and out. I love her little family.
ReplyDeleteBy the looks of how she's carrying differently I'd guess girl and I think it be cute to combind the couples names like Jenna and I believe little Jennifer would be a proud aunt to neice with a name close to hers.
ReplyDeleteIt's close to Jana too!
DeleteGirl
ReplyDeleteGirl
ReplyDeleteNot twins
ReplyDeleteThat comparison picture thing will not work after number 3 let alone number 19, you would not see a thing! LOL
ReplyDeleteGirl. Love the shows. been watching along time.(15 or 16 & counting)
ReplyDeleteI wonder if they'll stick to a letter, like Jessa's parents or Anna and her kids. They could also stick to a theme of famous preachers, to go along with Spurgeon Elliot.
ReplyDeleteI don't want to be mean, definitely not to a mother to be but your risk of serious problems gets a lot bigger every time you get pregnant 3 months after giving birth to the last. At a certain point you are just risking your own life and the life of your unborn baby. Besides that you risk leaving your born children with a single parent.
ReplyDeleteSpurgeon will be 15 months, that means it was 6months later as opposed to 3. Millions have complications regardless I would imagine it's not something they haven't considered
Deletegirl
ReplyDeleteGideon, Uriel, Reuben or Abigail, Mercy, or Harmony
ReplyDeleteGod bless you as you wait, and may your delivery be smooth, easy and short.
i think that they should keep with the s names like her mom kept with the j names in the Duggar family names. If its a girl then maybe Sabrina and if its a boy maybe Sabation
ReplyDeleteGirl
ReplyDeleteLooks like a girl to me, carrying this one lower
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear about the birth of their second baby! I am guessing that it will be a boy. I also have some name suggestions (as a joke): Abraham or Bartholemew! :-)
ReplyDeleteI believe their next boy is going to be a boy and I think he will weigh 9 lbs 4 oz. I think a good name for him would be Gideon, which means Great Warrior.
ReplyDeleteGirl!!
ReplyDeleteI think another boy! But whatever gender, I pray their baby is healthy! God Bless your family!
ReplyDeleteShe is carrying higher than the first time. I say it's a girl.
ReplyDeleteBoy
ReplyDeleteI'm going with a girl. I'd name her spree!
ReplyDeleteI think the baby is a girl(: I love the name Noelle.
ReplyDeletejessa looks fantastic!! i'm going to guess girl this time for no apparent reason. i hope they pick out an unusual/uncommon name again! sincerely hope this delivery is easier on her than w/spurgeon though
ReplyDeleteI think this time might be a girl.
ReplyDeleteA girl
ReplyDeleteJessa's bump looks smaller than with Spurgeon. Maybe it is a girl.
ReplyDeleteOh that's a girl!
ReplyDeleteHow do the fans justify this immodest shirt? Let's talk about it.
ReplyDeleteWas wondering the exact same thing anon 5:54...I won't mention why because I don't want to draw anyone's eyes to it. But I certainly wouldn't wear it...
DeleteI don't think that as a pregnant woman your modesty is priority. I would think that comfort and practicality take precedence. I think that whatever god Jessa believes in will allow a pregnant lady a little leeway
DeleteWhat they wear when pregnant does show a different modesty standard.
DeleteWhere is her wedding ring? I never took mine off during pregnancies and my fingers just kind of puffed up on either side of my ring haha! Actually, if I take my ring off now, my finger is indented. Never bothered me but I guess it may bother some. Huh.
ReplyDeleteIt is not like the vows are the ring, I can understand not wanting to shut of your circulation just for the sake of wearing a ring....
DeleteI took my rings off toward the end of both of my pregnancies because they were getting tight and I didn't want to risk having to get them cut off as another commenter mentioned. I wore them on a chain around my neck until my fingers got back to normal size.
DeleteArching your back isn't going to make you look bigger Jessa. Hopefully she is just doing that for the picture because if that's her usual posture she is in for some major pain as she gets older.
ReplyDeleteEvery body is different,you can never ever compare ones situation with another by the way.My hands swelled up so bad that they had to cut my ring off, so really, are we looking for a nit pick that bad?
DeleteNo, it is not nit picking. She arched here back 15 months ago while pregnant and she is arching her back now while pregnant, that seems like a pattern to me and not a knit. Blessings
DeleteI voting on a Girl!
ReplyDeleteSo happy for Jessa and Ben. I have no idea what the gender will be, but can't wait to to hear the baby's name. My suggestion is Claudia for a girl and Russell for a boy. Praying that it's a easy delivery.
ReplyDeleteboy!
ReplyDeleteMy youngest daughter is named after Moses sister. Miriam, if it is a girl, maybe you could consider it
ReplyDeleteI am guessing they will have another boy. Whatever the gender, I hope she has a easier delivery than with little Surgeon, and that she chooses to have a hospital birth this time.
ReplyDeleteMy youngest daughter is named after Moses sister, Miriam. If it is a girl you could consider it. My little Miriam is a wonderful follower of God, even before birth, she was most active when I was at church! Always dancing to the Lord's word.
ReplyDeleteCrystal what a blessing! It reminded me in the Bible where Mary visited Elisabeth (who was of course pregnant with John the Baptist) her baby leaped when Elisabeth heard Mary voice.( Luke 1:41)
DeleteThank you for sharing that.
Praying all goes smooth this time around. Jessa is due on my sons birthday! She looks just beautiful. God Bless Seawald family and Duggars, Let's not forget the Dillards too! I'm excited for the new season! Can't wait to see your beautiful families grow!
ReplyDeleteGirl
ReplyDeleteIt looks like another boy for the Seewald family. But I'm just guessing.
ReplyDeleteGirl
ReplyDeleteI think Ben & Jessa are having another boy! I like the names Caleb, Adam, Aden, Brandon, Brayden, Carson, Charles, Chase, Cooper, Corey, Curtis, Dylan, Edward, Emanuel, Ethan, Gabriel, Garrison, George, Grant, Hayden, Hunter, Jacob, Landon, Lincoln, Logan, Lucas, Mason, Matthew, Mitchell, Nathaniel, Nelson, Nicholas, Oliver, Payton, Philip, Preston, Richard, Roger, Robert, Spencer, Tyler, Tyson, Victor, Vincent, Walter, William, Quin if they are having a boy.
ReplyDeleteI like Alison, Ashley, Amanda, Bethany, Beverly, Bristol, Brooklyn, Candace, Chelsea, Charlotte, Cheyenne, Cynthia, Emily, Isabella, Jasmine, Kimberly, Kaitlyn, Lisa, Megan, Miranda, Melinda, Nicole, Olivia, Patricia, Joanne, Julianne, Jodi, Melissa, Rachael, Valerie, Rose, Victoria, Pamela if they are having a girl.
Her pregnancy selfies in skin tight tops really disappoint me.
ReplyDeleteJust observing the difference in the way she's carrying this time around, I'm going to say it's a girl. :) If they are sticking with the heroes of faith theme then maybe Esther or Ruth... or maybe they'll name her after Elisabeth Elliot or Amy Carmichael. :)
ReplyDeleteShE pg with twin girls
ReplyDeleteI think Jessa should have the baby on Feb 3 because that was her grandpa Duggars birthday. That would be really special for her father.
ReplyDeleteCorrie or Cornelia for Corrie Ten Boom if its a girl and Judson or Hudson for Adoniram Judson and Hudson Taylor for a boy.
ReplyDeleteNo, they went with Charles Spurgeon's last name for Spurgeon, so the name should be Ten Boom for Corrie Ten Boom.
DeleteTen Boom? To each his own but that would be a very silly name.
DeleteEEK!!! I can't wait!! I hope it's a girl!
ReplyDeleteAnnabelle, Delainey, Jillian, Lucy, Makenna, Paige, Savannah, Victoria, Zoe
ReplyDeleteI think it might be another boy. Name suggestions are: Tobias, Alexander, Zaedon, Landon, Asher, Emmett, Grayson, Isaiah
ReplyDeleteI think she's having a girl. Leila is a beautiful name.
ReplyDeleteIt's called the SEX of the baby, not the gender.
ReplyDeleteIt's either...really...there are no set rules, say it how you want.Like gender reveal party or what ever you choose to say on the matter...but don't tell the bloggers that they are wrong. Blessings🤗
DeleteBoth men please step up and get your wives help this time stop listening to the in laws no matter how godly be a husband and look after her
DeleteI think it will be a girl
ReplyDeleteI think it will be a baby boy. I pray everything goes well for Jessa and the birth and that the new baby is healthy. Spencer would be a cool name to go with Spurgeon don't you think?
ReplyDeleteI think it is a girl... For a girl i'd name it Dakota meaning friend. And if it is a boy i'd name it Christopher meaning Christ follower.
ReplyDeleteActually, Christopher means Christmas bearer, not follower.
DeleteHa ha! "Christ bearer", not Christmas bearer! Gotta love auto correct!
DeleteActually, it's Christ bearer, not Christmas bearer. :)

ReplyDeleteA girl! Jessa's hair is very different, and her belly seems more concentrated in the middle; usually a boy thing (basketball!) but Surgeon was more all belly.
ReplyDeleteWhat's with the tight immodest pregnancy tops???
ReplyDeleteWe think that she is having a girl
ReplyDeleteWhat has happened to Derick's mouth, has he had oral surgery to correct a problem, if so what? He has undergone a dramatic change.
ReplyDeleteI think (or hope) that Jessa and Ben are having a girl. Jessa is such a beautiful young lady and I think she would have a beautiful baby girl - won't be long till we all know.
ReplyDeleteI think they'll stay with the tradition and give the baby an "S" name.
ReplyDeleteI think they'll name the babies after Christian leaers who have impacted their lives
DeleteI think it's a girl, but girl of boy... I love the name Shaalbim and Shecaniah if you are going to stick with "S" names. I also love my little girls name (who is now 6) - Delaney.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes and love for a healthy birth. xxx
Dominique/ Dominic girl or boy or maybe Giselle or Gabriel/Gabrielle
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited for their new addition, I think it's a girl.
ReplyDeleteMy children are Elijah, Uriah, Abigail and Israel. Love those names ♡ as well as Julia, Julietta, Naomi, Jonathon, and Ezra. ♡ ;) all Bible names or derived from (julietta).
ReplyDeleteIf it is a boy call it Timothy Michael and if it is a girl call it Lucy Jane
ReplyDeleteGirl; Samantha
ReplyDeleteWhy do these girls' tops get tighter when pregnant and loose when not? It should be the other way around. I would like them to address this choice and tell me why tight tops during pregnancy is modest.
ReplyDeleteYes, it does seem hypocritical. I don't care what people choose to wear. However, when someone makes a big deal about dressing "modestly", they open themselves up to criticism when they appear to do otherwise. The Duggars wear skirts to cover the knees and go to great lengths to hide any sign of cleavage or upper arm. Their skin-tight maternity tops that leave little to the imagination are rather puzzling.
DeleteI am wondering the same thing. These tight shirts that show every bump and curve are far from modest! I wonder what Michelle and Jim Bob think about the way their pregnant daughters dress. Definitely not following what they preached about on their shows. I would like to hear them explain the styles they choose to wear too.
DeleteWow. why does it matter to you?? It's their business.
DeleteI would be interested in this, as well.
DeleteIt's not modest. It's pride. They associate pregnancy with being "blessed". The more children the more blessed. So...that's the time in their lives they feel the freedom to show off their bodies.
DeleteI think they go for super tight when pregnant because they really want to show off how big they are. Seems like they shouldn't be so needy for that kind of attention.
DeleteI agree, I also wonder about the skin tight shirts! I also wonder about the attitude of a lot of commenters on this blog. Why the just ignore it attitude? Why can't someone respectfully question behavior? That is not judgmental. It is just asking a question, why do you do this or that please explain cause I would like to understand. In my opinion it prevents judgements. Knowledge is power.
DeleteI think it's a girl.

ReplyDeleteHope fully u get your home birth this time. I have had two and hoping to get pregnant sometime this year and plan on a 3rd HB. I think you are going to have a girl. Your looking much healthier than last time and u have kept the weight off. Well done.
ReplyDeleteI think it is a girl this time.
ReplyDeleteI don't see anything wrong with the shirt she wore in this picture. No need to scold at her so show some respect!
ReplyDeleteI don't know that you could find a shirt any tighter than this one. They don't wear skin-tight shirts except when pregnant.
DeleteNot only is that shirt tight, it's cut out on the sides!
DeleteI wouldn't wear something so tight or revealing, pregnant or not.

ReplyDeleteI think it's a girl
ReplyDeleteThey said before Spurgeon that they were not going to do a letter theme for their family, so the 'S' wishers are probably out of luck.

ReplyDeleteBoy. Carrying it the same.

ReplyDeleteA boy. Stephane Roberto Seewald!
ReplyDeleteWell of course I'm rooting for a little girl, but honestly can we dispense with the old wives' tales about "how you carry?" The baby's sex has nothing to do with it. Best of luck to them no matter what she's having!
ReplyDeleteOoh come on don't be a Debbie Downer, the guessing game is the fun of not knowing the gender :)
DeleteGirl. 8 lbs. 11 oz.

ReplyDeleteA boy, maybe Brayden
ReplyDeleteI personally think that pregnant bellies are beautiful and adorable. I don't mind the tighter shirts that show the bump. If you loo up the definition of modesty, you will not see specific restrictions on dress code. Modesty is different in every culture and even in different generations of the same culture. I think Jessa looks beautiful. God sees her heart. And he also sees the hearts of all of us whom at some point have judged others for whatever reason. Mercy triumphs over judgement. James 2:13
ReplyDeleteCasey, the Duggars have talked at length and over many years about clothing that draws attention to the body, specifically the female body. They started this conversation. The rest of us are questioning the change in standards. Is that judging or sincerely asking a question?
DeleteIt's a sincere question. They have preached about not drawing attention to parts of the body. When pregnant, that's all they do is draw attention.
DeleteI think it's a girl. Sarah Elizabeth for a boy I would choose Samuel David.
ReplyDeleteBest of luck for your delivery. Praying for safe and healthy delivery.
My 2 daughters are 16 months apart. When they were small they were best friends as they were close in age. But as tweens they fight constantly over everything. So some good for being close in age and some not so good. I think she will have another boy. I am praying her dear baby will be born feb 4th. My birthday 😀❤. Good day in February if I do say so myself. God bless you guys.
ReplyDeleteMy first two are 14 months apart, and they are very close. I'm pregnant with the fifth and all of them are under two years apart. I think it's nice having all of them close in age. It is hard at times, but it's all worth it.
ReplyDeleteAnd I don't really think you can tell what you are having by how you are carrying the baby. But it's fun to try and guess.
Hope she has a good delivery and everything goes well.
I like Purity for a girl and Bastion for a boy. I think it's probably another little boy. So excited to find out!!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for the new season. I think Jessa and Ben may have a little girl this time. Best Wishes to you both.
ReplyDeleteI hope for a girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteIT'S A BOY!
ReplyDeleteI think Boy
ReplyDeleteboys names : Xander , Sacha, Salomon, Stewart, Solal
girls names : Savannah, Sailor, Savon, Summer, Sidonie
I think it is a girl this time and I think they should name her sharon
ReplyDeleteI think a girl, Abigail Guinn. And if a boy Gabriel Ethan
ReplyDeleteI gave my daughter a few of my tops that I wore when I was pregnant with her. She never wore them. The tighter tops is what they are wearing now, which I see nothing wrong with, a expecting belly is nothing to be shame of. I hope Jessa and Ben use a Biblical name for the baby.
ReplyDeleteI object to the cutouts on the side.
DeleteShe clearly has a shirt on underneath it then. You can't see any skin. I don't especially care for the tighter shirts either, but I know it is the style now. I am sure that they think the "tent" shaped maternity shirts that we used to wear are hideous. Everyone is allowed to have their own opinion. Just because it doesn't agree with ours doesn't make it wrong. How is it immodest to show that you have a child in your stomach?
DeleteNot a matter of being shamed of it but flaunting it is drawing attention to yourself. Seeing every bump and bulge is not necessary.
DeleteShe is wearing a black shirt underneath the sweater with the cutouts. You are not seeing her flesh.
DeleteA boy and they will name him Tozer.
ReplyDelete*
ReplyDeleteHere's a thought, why don't you folks who get so upset by all the Duggars do, just don't ever look at at duggar site, then you won't get so upset...why put yourself thru that.For instance, I love animals, so therefore I don't troll animal abuse sites.Why would you want to continually get upset by stopping by? Unless you thrive on that kind of thing.Capeeesh!
4:38 again, I object also to the cutouts, if you can see skin underneath,but it looks to dark to be skin.
ReplyDeleteHow can they keep suggesting it's twins for Jessa? She is smaller than she was last time.
ReplyDeleteI feel for Spurg - he's still a baby himself and now has to learn to share -it's kind of sad.
ReplyDeleteI guess a girl.
ReplyDeleteI predict the baby will be a girl. She will come on Valentines Day, so she will be named Valentine.
ReplyDelete
