Michelle Duggar delivered the baby girl by Caesarean section Thursday at Mercy Medical Center in Rogers. The baby, named Jordyn-Grace Makiya Duggar, weighed 7 pounds, 3 ounces and was 20 inches long.

...

The Duggars now have 10 sons and eight daughters. "We both would love to have more," he said.

...

The cable network TLC broadcasts a weekly show about the Duggars, called Seventeen and Counting. Chris Finnegan of TLC – which handles public relations for the Duggar family – said the show's name would be updated to account for the latest addition to the family. He said TLC also will air a show Monday on the baby's delivery. The Duggars have also had a book published recently.

Jim Bob Duggar is 43, a year older than his wife. Their oldest child, Joshua, is 20. The other Duggar children, in between Joshua and Jordyn-Grace, are Jana, 18; John-David, 18; Jill, 17; Jessa, 16; Jinger, 14; Joseph, 13; Josiah, 12; Joy-Anna, 11; Jeremiah, 9; Jedidiah, 9; Jason, 8; James, 7; Justin, 6; Jackson, 4; Johannah, 3; and Jennifer, 1.

14. I think all women

are collectively wincing by this point. x(

[MountainLaurel]

18. At this point

I'd say she's in serious danger of uterine prolapse.

3. They want to have more? Cool. TLC can make a documentary featuring the conception of Rim Job #19.

Whoops, that's Jim Rob #19. Sorry...

[philosophie_en_rose]

4. In the future, everyone will be a Duggar.

:bounce:

[kentauros]

41. TLC should have a show titled

The Globe: 6,748,157,232 and Counting

They could put that on after the Duggars show, and then follow with all the other eco-disaster shows Discovery is airing all the time. "Maybe" it would knock some sense into the viewers of the duggar family circus...

[jmowreader]

46. That's Jim BOB #19

Jim Rob is the asshole in Fresno that owns Free Republic.

[Deja Q]

50. Whoops! My bad...

:blush:

5. Nauseating. Really nauseating.

I was actually happy to read that a family in BC, from Romania, already had 18, and therefore beat out the Duggars!!! Isn't it sad that this brings out such a stupid reaction in me?

29. At least they actually look like normal kids. Their styles and personalities are developing.

As opposed to the "Conformity At All Costs" Duggars.

[moriah]

6. Is she actually planning on having another after the 16th pregnancy ending in a C?

Seriously.... there's gotta be some preservation of health and welfare, here. Better not to risk your life and the life of a 19th child when you have 18 others to take care of.

10. I still want to know what space age polymer her uterus is made from and what other applications it

could be used for. the next space shuttle skin, up armoring vehicles in Iraq, paving a highway?

[Deja Q]

56. I bet it'd be useful for a set of bagpipes Jim Bob has every intention for playing... on...

:rofl:

Honestly, any time I see a Duggar's thread on DU I have to click on it. You guys are unmercifully funny with your comments about the Duggars.

12. What's left? Jerkoff?

13. But that doesn't make babies!

To the stockades with you.

21. Somebody call the spaying and neutering society

some people you just can't let run loose unless they be fixed.

[mainegreen]

22. Whoah, look at the age gap between Jinger (wtf) and Joseph!

That's more than nine months right there!

Was Jim Bob not performing well, or was he in the dog house then?

24. Can't help but think menopause will come as a welcome relief to her...

Just did the math...16 (pregnancies) X 9 (# of months in a pregnancy- give or take) = 144 months.

Divide by 12 (# of months in a year)...

She's spent TWELVE YEARS BEING PREGNANT.
:wow:

...and then the "We'd like to have more..." :eyes:
Let him carry the next 3 or 4...you've done your share.

Bet he'd decide to call it a day after the first...

[Deja Q]

54. Piffle. They'll take his tadpoles and her eggs and put them in a surrogate womb

Or even a pile of haggis would do...

[mcctatas]

25. OMG

28. There should be government intervention at this point...

...and cut Jim Bob Duggar's tubes.

[billyoc]

30. What

the fuck.

Are they after their own Congressional District? :rofl:

[Initech]

31. Someone needs to explain to these fuckwits this whole food - air deal.

Not to mention the overpopulation deal too.

[Jamastiene]

35. Ding ding ding ding. We have a winner.

That is exactly the point I was going to make.

[LibDemAlways]

32. And they are raising all those kids to be dumb as

dirt. A recent episode of their show took them to a creation museum where dinosaurs are depicted cavorting with people. The Duggar kids pontificated on camera that the Earth is, indeed, 6000 years old.

The US already has more than its share of morons. The Duggars need to give it a rest.

[Jamastiene]

36. Great, not only are they breeding like rabbits, but they are morans too.

That's ALL we need; more idiots running around. :eyes:

[Deja Q]

52. Mormons?

[kentauros]

59. Then the Creation "Science" Museum is wrong!!1!!1!!

Don't they know that many ID proponents date the age of the Earth at a high 10,000 years? :P

As someone pointed out on another such thread elsewhere, that's in God-years. Human years range into a higher ratio to create those billion-year esitmates

[DBoon]

38. Google "quiverfull"

A whole social movement based on this

:rofl:

45. Well, I was with you up to "Jesus Christ"...

See, Jesus would blink or wiggle his nose and the balls would grow back and the cement would turn into a statue in a city park. Next to the other one with the warrior mounted on his horse...

[kentauros]

60. No blinking from Jesus, though.

That would have to come from an adherent of Zoroashtrianism and their god, the great Ahura Mazda.

ya know, Jeannie, Persia, Djinni, flying carpets, Iran

48. If she doesn't drop one next year, post about THAT

That will be news. That another baby fell out of this woman hardly surprising. Until her uterus turns inside out she's just gonna continue "doin' the Lord's work".

Goddamn freakshow. :eyes:

[Arugula Latte]

49. Why haven't they used the most obvious J name of all -- "Jesus."

Why do they hate the lord?

:shrug:

[Deja Q]

53. Because that would be using the Lord's name in vain and that is a sin.

Besides, they already screamed "Oh Jesus!" 9 months earlier at least 18 times already...

[Arugula Latte]

55. And the mom says "Oh, Jesus, Jim Bob, not again ...

Get that thing away from me."

[Deja Q]

57. You mean Jim Bob is trying to get his own mother pregnant too?!

:wow:

[Arugula Latte]

63. Well, it is Arkansas ...

:hide: * duck and cover*

[Deja Q]

51. Given his two previous hits*, Justin Timberlake could write a real grammy winner for the Duggars:

"Jizz in Her Box"

* Google references

[texas1928]

58. C-Section????

I figured they just fell out by now. I bet she can not be pregnant during allergy season, or she has to be very careful sneezing.

[Fire Walk With Me]

61. My two posts were deleted...

...I attempted to mix my confusion with metaphor, and obviously pissed someone(s) off. Sorry. I should know better by now.

[TheMightyFavog]

62. Well, I suppose they're going to get busy working on number 19 now.

For some reason I have a mental image of someone moving a cocktail frank in and out of the wide open doors of the Vehicle Assembly Building at Cape Canaveral.

[Richardo]

64. I really love the judgemental tone of this thread

They choose to have kids, they can support them without public assistance, so what?

I don't agree with a thing the Duggars say or do, but I do know that their family life is their choice, is none of my business, and that I'm in no position to pass judgement on them.

[Initech]

65. It's one thing to have kids...

It's another to have a family bigger than that of the average population of a lot of third world villages.

[kentauros]

66. If they lived in mud huts and thatch roofs, it wouldn't be so bad.

But as a typical RW-Christian-American "family", they are a huge burden on our limited resources. What kind of an example is TLC making by featuring them all the time?

[Richardo]

69. I still don't see how that's anyone's business but theirs.

[Initech]

73. When they decide to flaunt the fact that they have 18 kids on TV, its everybodys business.

[dawgmom]

67. The "so what" is their carbon footprint

If people jump down one another's throats here for driving SUVs, then the Duggers sure as hell deserve 20 times that contempt. I could drive around the planet in a Hummer about a hundred times and never begin to equal the carbon footprint of these overpopulating pigs. Sure, they have every right in the world to have as many kids as they want. And I have every right in the world to find them contemptible for doing so.

[Richardo]

68. Oh horseshit.

I'll bet their carbon footprint is only incrementally more than most families (once you have the baseline of a house and vehicle or two). In fact I'll bet it's lower on a per capita basis than many childless couples.

"Pigs". Nice and tolerant of you - you're a credit to liberals everywhere.

Oh wait, you're not.

[Deja Q]

70. Right on!!

:yourock:

[Orsino]

71. How many billions ago did our population become unsustainable?

And this clown-car family is still churning them out as fast as they can?

[Deja Q]

75. Apparently, sex billion.

Whoops, six billion, my typo.

[rcrush]

72. Too bad there is no record of all the great jokes in this thread.

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

74. What kind of woman can stand being pregnant for almost 18 years of her life?

I'm currently pregnant with my second and I am eager to get this over with already. Pregnancy symptoms suck!

[Manifestor_of_Light]

76. How many C-sections has she had already?

That sounds like a real good way to have major complications like scar tissue, prolapsed uterus, and lots of other stuff I can't even imagine.

[Deja Q]

77. Looks like somebody took a picture of her post-operative abdomen:
