Duggar

The Duggar family welcomes their newest family member as the Duggar mom gives birth to her 19th baby.

According to the details, the Duggar family welcomed another member in their family when Michelle Duggar gave birth to her daughter yesterday. The Duggar family named the new angel, Josie Brooklyn. Josie is the 19th kid of the Duggar family. Michelle Duggar, 42, was hospitalized in University of Arkansas for Medical Center where she gave birth to Josie in an early pregnancy. Josie was expected in March and was born three months earlier. She weighed only 1 pound and 6 ounces. Duggar was operated for a Cesarean section. The early pregnancy caused high blood pressure and hence doctor decided to do an emergency C-section surgery to save the baby.

The Duggar baby is in stable condition and is kept in neonatal intensive care unit of the hospital. Only 6 percent of total pregnancies are born so early. Doctors say that such early pregnancies can cause medical complications for the baby as organs are not developed properly. However, the development in neonatal technology helps survive kids as small as Josie Brooklyn. Michelle Duggar was suffering with severe pain in her gall bladder and was taken to the hospital immediately and doctors chose to adopt surgical method after a collaborative decision.

Michelle Duggar and husband Jim Bob have 19 kids together. The couple announced in September that they’re expecting their 19th child. Older children of the Duggar family, who have now become adults, say that it is mixed blessing to have a big family.

Medical professionals say that having too many children is not good for the health of both the baby and the mother. They say that mothers are likely to face severe medical complications after giving birth to five children.
