Michelle Duggar gives birth to #19 at 25 weeks

Josie Brooklyn was born yesterday via c-section, weighing 1lb 6oz

I believe she was due in March

the report says Michelle Duggar was in the hospital with gallstones when she needed an emergency c-section Chat Icon

ETA
a report from abc.com says that the pain from the gallstones was generating contractions
i think she was having blood pressure issues as well, which is why they delivered her

the report (from TLC) says Josie is stable in the NICU and that Michelle is recovering well

25 weeks is VERY early, im sure itll be a long road. ill see if i can find any other info Chat Icon

i see nothing wrong with them having soo many children, as its apparent that they can provide for them - financially, emotionally, etc.

however I have to agree, maybe its her body's way of saying enough is enough, shes gotta be in her 40's. at that age youre playing russian roulette anyway. all the "risks" skyrocket.

On a positive note, a lady at work had a baby at 24 weeks and 1 lb 5 oz. The baby is now home after 3 months in the hospital.

Re: Michelle Duggar gives birth to #19 at 25 weeks

I know I'm gonna get heat for this but it's just my opinion and of course you're all welcome to disagree, although starting a Duggar debate was not my intention, I just started typing a response and my feelings on the topic came out-

It is terrible for a baby to be born that premature and my heart goes out to the family during such a trying time BUT that said (and I don't feel bad really for saying it b/c this family chose to be in the limelight and therefore be judged)- I just don't think it is healthy or beneficial in any way to have 19 children. I know it seems like everyone is happy-go-lucky but is it REALLY possible for 19 kids to get enough attention from 2 parents? I know they make it seem like that on tv but I just think in reality a lot of those young children are getting their primary care from the older children who in turn are living a life quite ascribed to them instead of having a chance to really explore... I agree that they seem like a nice family with nice values, etc. but I just think 19 is over the line and becomes more of a novelty than just a really big family for a couple that loves and values what it means to have a big family... I think that is evidenced by the fact that she IS taking risks by attempting more children at an advanced age (43 I think)... That said, I hope this baby pulls through without suffering too many illls from such prematurity.

She definitely is past the point of viability. At 25 weeks there is a 50- 80 % chance of survival (but that unfortunately doesn't mean that there might not be disabilities)

I believe the youngest baby to survive was only 21 weeks- which is of course extremely rare- but starting at 23 weeks the chances get better (10- 40%) and so on...

You can google for a chart if ur interested!
