Jessa Duggar Reveals Her Newborn Baby's Name (Photo)
On Tuesday, Jessa Duggar revealed that her daughter had been born. She had social media users in a frenzy when she shared the little girl’s image and name.
Jessa Duggar, 26, and Ben Seewald recently had their baby girl. In an Instagram post, Duggar shared a cute image of the newborn and her name.
She wrote: “Introducing…Ivy Jane Seewald…” In the caption, she also invited her fans to go to theseewaldfamily.com website to get more details about the little girl.
On the website, the couple revealed that Ivy was born on Sunday. They explained that Duggar’s “water broke” while they “were getting ready for church.”
“I still can’t get over her name and how beautiful she is..."
The couple shared that they figured that meant they had to change their plans for the day. Duggar was then in labor for “three and a half hours.”
The little girl was born at 5:57 p.m. Her actual due date was estimated for June 5 because both of the couple’s sons “went five days past their due date.”
Instead, little Ivy “came two weeks earlier than her brothers.” The cute baby was born at “home weighing 7lbs 14oz and 20 1/2 inches long.”
The couple’s post concluded by saying:
“She feels so tiny compared to her siblings! Spurgeon was born at nearly 10lbs, and Henry close to 9lbs. We’re so grateful to God for this precious gift. She is already so loved. Her big brothers adore her!”
Their fans were over-the-moon with excitement about Ivy’s birth. Many fans took to the comments section to congratulate the couple on their third child.

Duggar and her husband were already parents to sons Spurgeon, 3, and Henry, 2. In early January, the couple announced the “Counting On” star’s third pregnancy via Instagram.
