Jana Duggar’s wedding to Stephen Wissmann has led to much speculation. Jill Dillard’s very obvious absence from the wedding party has given credence to theories that Jil and her older sister, Jana, have an icy connection, at best. Not everyone is focused on Jana and Jill’s seemingly strained relationship, though. Several Duggar family followers were quick to notice that Jessa Seewald might be keeping a secret. Based on the published wedding photos, could Jessa Seewald be pregnant again?

Jana Duggar’s wedding photos have family followers suspecting a family pregnancy announcement is coming soon

Jana Duggar’s wedding shocked Duggar family followers, many of which believed Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar’s eldest daughter would never get married. It might have been Jana’s much-awaited “big day,” but a lot of focus is being paid to Jessa Seewald. Jana’s maid of honor has been spotted in several photos from the event, and family followers think she appears to be pregnant. A recent Instagram “try-on haul” has also led some fans to suspect Jessa is early on in a pregnancy.

Several Reddit users believe the fit of the dress indicates the mother of five will be welcoming a new baby in the coming months, but not everyone is convinced. Several family followers suggested that Jessa is not currently pregnant. Instead, they believe Jana did her bridesmaids dirty with an unflattering dress style and fabric.

According to her interview with People, Jana aimed for elegance for her wedding. However, not everyone believes her choice of dress style and color for her bridesmaids fits the bill. They theorize that Jessa isn’t pregnant, but the poses published and the dress style creates the illusion of a baby bump.

Based on how she has spaced her pregnancies in the past, is it too soon for Jessa to be pregnant again?

If Jessa Seewald is pregnant again, it would be a pretty quick turnaround from her last pregnancy. Is it too soon based on her previous family planning, though? Jessa and Ben last welcomed a baby in December 2023. Their fifth child, George Augustine Seewald, was born in a Northwest Arkansas hospital. He was the first of Jessa and Ben’s children to be born in a medical facility. George’s birth is still relatively recent. Regardless, it wouldn’t be the first time Jessa announced a pregnancy quickly after welcoming a new baby.

Sure, Jessa’s spaced her more recent pregnancies at least two years apart. Still, she welcomed her second child, Henry Wilberforce Seewald, 15 months after her first son, Spurgeon Elliot Seewald, was born. Based on that, she and Ben Seewald may have aimed for a small age gap between George and his hypothetical sibling.

If Jessa is expecting again, she’s unlikely to announce it anytime soon. In early 2023, Jessa received serious backlash for the way she announced a pregnancy and subsequent miscarriage on social media. Due to the backlash, she waited several months into her pregnancy with George to make the announcement.
