Jessa Duggar Names Baby Boy After Missionaries, Trumps Sister Jill On Faith Department?

Jessa Duggar revealed that her first baby boy's name is inspired by missionaries and preachers. Sounds like Jessa wants to show the world that she was much more specific when picking name for her baby, unlike her sister Jill.

According to Yahoo Parenting, "On Wednesday, Jessa Duggar Seewald and Ben Seewald posted a video reveal of their son's name: Spurgeon Elliot Seewald."

She said, according to the article, "We are very excited to introduce our little baby boy to the world. We've been working on deciding on a name, and we finally figured it out."

And so it turns out that the first name of the baby boy come from a 19th century preacher, whose writing had a big impact on Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald. The middle name comes from a missionary whose work in South America has been a big inspiration for the new parents.

Either Jessa and Ben are looking to go to South America for mission work or they are just big fans of missionaries in far flung places!

As for issues back home, Jessa Duggar still hasn't addressed the issue that he didn't fully trust her sister Jill's midwifery skills to give birth to Spurgeon. Jessa Duggar was rushed to the hospital after a delayed home birth and the fans are already wondering if this will be on "Jill and Jessa Counting on" on TLC.

According to TMZ, "Jessa Duggar delivered a baby boy Thursday night, but it wasn't easy ... we've learned she tried giving birth at home but there were complications and she was rushed to the hospital... The baby weighed in at 9 lbs 11 oz., and measured more than 21 inches, so it just may have been too big."

Sounds like her baby boy was just too big to have him quietly at home. At least Jessa Duggar and her baby are both safe!

Before this big moment, Jessa Duggar flooded her Instagram with wedding pictures, the delivery almost overlapping with her wedding anniversary. To celebrate it, Ben Seewald's wife went crazy with releasing all sorts of never-seen-before wedding pictures, videos and more.
