Arkansas parents Michelle & Jim Bob Duggar have welcomed their 18th baby! I guess they'll have to change the name of their TLC show to something other than Seventeen and Counting!
*Edited* with more information!
Baby Jordyn-Grace Makiya arrived by Caesarean section Thursday, December 18 and weighed in at 7 pounds 3 ounces and was 20 inches long. Jim Bob said Michelle started having contractions on Wednesday evening. The baby was transverse thus the need for a C-section.
Chris Finnegan from the TLC network said that Michelle was tired (well heck yes!) but was resting comfortably.
Jim Bob said, "The ultimate Christmas gift from God. She's just absolutely beautiful, like her mom and her sisters." He added that they'd both love to have more.
The proud dad said, "Our whole family is excited about Jordyn’s addition to our family. She’s just perfect in every way."
Monday's show will show the baby's delivery. And they will be updating the show's title to reflect the new addition.
Jordyn joins: Josh 20, twins Jana and John-David, 18, Jill 17, Jessa, 16, Jinger, 14, Joseph, 13, Josiah, 12, Joy-Anna, 11, twins Jedidiah and Jeremiah, 9, Jason, 8, James, 7, Justin, 6, Jackson, 4, Johannah, 3 and Jennifer, 1
Congrats to all of the Duggars!
