PREGNANT Joy-Anna Duggar gave fans a glimpse of her growing baby bump at 19 weeks last night.
Joy is pregnant with a baby girl nine months after suffering a heartbreaking miscarriage.
The Counting On star said she felt "so much love" as she told fans: "Nineteen weeks!"
Her followers showered her with lovely messages, with one writing: "Keeping you and the baby in my prayers Joy!"
Another fan wrote: "Lucky lady!" as one more said: "Have you guys picked out a name yet?"
Joy is yet to share more details but announced her surprise pregnancy on Instagram two weeks ago,.
Joy-Anna, 22, captioned a photo with her husband Austin Forsyth and their son Gideon, 2: “Yes… It’s true! @austin4site and I are PREGNANT again!
“Ahhh!! It’s been quite the crazy journey these last few months, but we are so thankful that mom and baby are healthy!”
Joy wore a pink shirt for the photo with the words “Blessed” written on it to show off her growing baby bump.
Joy provided a link to her YouTube channel, where she was filmed telling her family about the pregnancy in December.
She revealed she is due August 19.
The video also featured a gender reveal.
A helicopter dropped pink confetti from the sky.
Joy explained in the video how she took a pregnancy test and the result was negative.
But when she continued to get symptoms, she took another test and it was positive.
She cried: “I’m not as scared as I thought I was going to be after miscarrying at 20 weeks. I thought I was going to be so nervous. But I’m excited. It’s crazy!”
She told her husband by making a Christmas ornament for the new baby.
In another clip, Joy explained how she was spotting and her doctor had “concerns” over her bloodwork results.
She explained: “You’re pregnant but it’s not a viable pregnancy. It doesn’t have all the genetics it needs. It’s really hard. We have all these fears. Going through all of this again, it’s been a very difficult few weeks.
"We’re doing the genetic testing. Hopefully we’ll know whether or not this is a viable pregnancy.”
Fortunately, the doctor called back after testing and said “everything looks great.”
Joy sparked pregnancy rumors earlier this month when she wore a sweater that she donned while pregnant with Gideon.
In a Q&A, Joy fueled rumors when she said: "Of course we want more kids. It's just been a long last eight months after our miscarriage with Annabel.”
She suffered a miscarriage in June 2019.
