Crazy Duggars

The Duggars are pregnant with their 19th child!!

Their oldest son and his wife are pregnant with their first who will be 6 months older than the new Duggar baby.

When the parents announced it, the kids, especially the older kids, did not look all that excited. They looked pretty upset.

I just don't get it. The woman was breastfeeding when she got pregnant (not that minute most likely, but in general). How fertile can you be? Talk about leaking CM!!!

I think they really need to give it a rest and try to be available to the kids they already have. Also, I feel bad for the pregnant wife. I'm sure she'd like the birth of her child to be a special thing rather than an everyday family occurrence.

Re: Crazy Duggars

  • The world record is 69 kids to one mother.  Michelle is age 43 right now with 19.  I figure if she has one a year, occassionally popping out a litter at a time, she'll hit 70 before the normal American woman retires at age 65.
    I'm friends with everybody in this office. We're all best friends - I love everybody here. But sometimes your best friends start coming into work late, and start having dentist appointments that aren't dentist appointments. And that's when it is nice to let them know that you can beat them up.
  • I figure between her, OctoMom, and Kate Gosselin, a bunch of us J9ers can take a pass on the reproducing. She's doing us a favor, y'all.

  • I'm actually surprised that Josh and Anna aren't carrying on the "J" names with their kid. Seems unnatural to me.

  • I saw this last week on the today show and was sooo not surprised. They were like we have a special announcement from the Duggar's and I knew it immediately. I know they are really stupid for popping out that many kids, but hey at least they are taking care of them. That is more than I can say for a lot of people who only have one.

  • ...and it is families and ways of thinking like the Duggar's that probably make me a bad Catholic, since Catholics are pro-life, but I believe in birth control! I know shame, shame, for being a bad christian.

    Wait, the "not carrying on the J name" is the unnatural part?!?!?! Oy...

  • Duggars. No apostrophe. More than one Duggar = Duggars.

    LOL at SBS. But at this point, I expect their annual Today Show announcement. I'd be shocked if it didn't happen once a year. I beth Josh and Anna just want a whole letter to themselves.

  • I hope one of them picks the letter X. I want to know 19 names that start with X.

    Xander.

    X..... okay, I'm out.

  • This is true, SBS. 

    And I guess they can start their own traditions now.... ya know, starting all of their kids names with "M".  Starting with Mackynzie (nice spelling).  Luckily, there are a shiitton of M names, so they should be golden for a few dozen kids before they have to start making them up, or pretending that a name starts with that letter (ie, Jinger)

  • Yeah, I'm pretty sure I could come up with 19 better "J" names than they already have...

    Xanadu.

  • Xavier.

    C'mon SBS! Those names are great! What, you don't like Jedediah or Jeremiah? Joy-Anna doesn't do it for ya?

    *gag*

  • I was going to credit them with not saddling the J kids with trendy and horrifically youneek names, but yeah. Jinger. I forgot about her.

  • We're up to half a Duggar-sized family of X names!!  One of these kids needs to run with this when they get to child-bearing age.

  • Wasn't Xiomara the name of that batshitcrazy chick on ANTM a few seasons ago? No?

  • I've decided I watch waaaay to much ANTM. Especially when I look at pictures from NY Fashion Week and can say "Hey, that's Lisa from Cycle 9!" during Leanne Marshall (Project Runway Season 2 Winner)'s show.

  • Oh, and in honor of poor Jinger, I'm recommending she have a daughter (or niece!) named "Xylie" -- it's like Kylie, only it's really short for Xylephone.

  • I hate to have some hate for the Duggars.  I hate that they promote/support this idea of having a family the size a football team, for the purpose of serving God.  Its not even that they don't believe in BC, its that they think it is their godly duty to procreate enough so that they can over-take the world.  I don't hate their beliefs, I hate that they promote them, to people that can't afford to care for 19 children.  They are a rare case in the fact that they can afford to take care of their massive family, but most of the families that are as religious, and hold the same views (it is our responsibility to procreate and spread the word) cannot afford super large families. 

    I think it is extremely irresponsible to bring that many people into this already over-populated world, especially as our natural resources are shrinking.  

    Lastly - and decidedly vulgar - its gotta be like a jar of mayo.  

  • Cru, I wasn't even aware *that* was their purpose in having so many kids. I figured it was a no birth control thing. So thanks for that info! I don't think I've actually watched a whole episode -- oh wait, I did watch Josh's wedding. 

    Between the mayo visual and leaking CM reference from Zee, I'm going to do fabulously on the diet this week.

    My job here is done.  Can I have the jeans that won't fit anymore after you lose all that weight (not that I'd really fit in them, they'd never be big enough...)?

  • Ya know what? The more I watch the Duggars (not that often) the more I disagree with them. First of all, I don't think it's physically healthy for a woman to have that many children. But whatever, it's also not healthy to smoke. In that respect, she can make her own decisions. But I really don't think that they are taking care of their children. Yes, they can afford to feed them and buy them worn out shoes from the Salvation Army, but the kids are really taking care of each other. I feel most sorry for the oldest daughters who are just their parents' slaves. They take care of the housework and the raising of the little kids and anything else while their parents keep popping out kids. It's not a fair thing to do to your children.

    And not using BC does not equal 20 kids. Maybe Mrs. Duggar needs to read TCOYF.

     And my cousins totally named their 3 kids with the same letter. Dorks.
