The Duggars have a show on TLC called 17 and Counting, anyways they are actually expecting their 18th child now. (I realize this original post was from last year.) Anyways, just updating it. I think I would lose my mind for sure and feel guilty dividing my time with them all. However, everyone's different. I am thinking 2 is a good number!

My first thought was "I wonder what the dad does for a living!" I know that we are stressed about being able to support another kid here soon! I can't imagine that. She must not suffer from morning sickness, that is enough to keep me from doing this again!

Of course their motto must be "God will provide" We have Hasidic Jews in our area- Hope I don't offend anyone, but they have a truck load of kids.
Just not for me. I don't even know if I can handle 3!!!!

If I had all of the money in the world and could completely provide for my kids, I would want 12. And I would want a house in Mexico, near the beach, and a HUGE Mexican style dinner table, for Christmases and Easters and Thanksgivings. But I don't have all that money so I can't do any of the above....LOL!

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. --It's a girl - again - for the Duggars. Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar welcomed their 17th child, and seventh daughter, into the world Thursday.
Jennifer Danielle was born at 10:01 a.m. at Saint Mary's Hospital in Rogers, Ark., the Duggars said in an interview. Jennifer weighed 8 pounds, 8 ounces and arrived five days after Michelle's due date.
Less than 30 minutes after giving birth, the Duggars already were talking of having more.
"We'd love to have more," Michelle said, adding that the girls are outnumbered seven to 10 in the family. "We love the ruffles and lace."
Jennifer joins the fast-growing Duggar brood, who live in Tontitown in a 7,000-square-foot home. All the children - whose names start with the letter J - are home-schooled.
The oldest is 19 and the youngest, before Jennifer, is almost 2 years old.
"We are just so grateful to God for another gift from him," said Jim Bob Duggar, 42, a former state representative. "We are just so thankful to him that everything went just very well."
Jennifer joins siblings Joshua, 19; John David, 17; Janna, 17; Jill, 16; Jessa, 14; Jinger, 13; Joseph, 12; Josiah, 11; Joy-Anna, 9; Jedidiah, 8; Jeremiah, 8; Jason 7; James 6; Justin, 4; Jackson, 3; Johannah, almost 2.
The family includes two sets of twins.
Michelle Duggar said that Joshua, Janna, Jill and Jessa were at the hospital, but that the rest of the family planned to visit their new sister later Thursday.
Michelle Duggar said she started feeling contractions Wednesday night and went to the hospital at about 5 a.m. Thursday.
"It actually went fast," she said. "I guess once I started progressing, it went within 30 minutes."
Jennifer was born via a VBAC - or vaginal birth after Caesarean, Jim Bob Duggar said.
The Duggars have been featured on several programs on cable's Discovery Health Network. The next special, the Duggar Family Album, is scheduled to air next month, Jim Bob Duggar said.
Among the "fun facts" listed on Discovery Health's Web page devoted to the Duggars: A baby has been born in every month except June; the Duggars have gone through an estimated 90,000 diapers, and Michelle, 40, has been pregnant for 126 months - or 10.5 years - of her life.
