The Earth’s population has gone from 1 billion people to 7 billion in just 200 years, and overpopulation will drain the planet’s natural resources before this century is over. But hey, isn’t it just TERRIFIC that Michelle Duggar of TLC’s “19 Kids and Counting” is pregnant with her 20th child? Ha ha, f*cking fantastic news!
“We are due in April and just thrilled,” Michelle told Ann Curry during the ["Today Show"] broadcast [video below]. “We have the motto in our house that there’s always room for one more.”
The couple welcomed their 19th child, Josie, in 2009. During the pregnancy, Michelle suffered gall-bladder problems and preeclampsia, giving birth to Josie three and a half months prematurely. At birth, the infant weighed one pound, six ounces but is now a healthy toddler about to celebrate her second birthday.
“We’ll have to wait and see [about more children],” said Michelle. “We would love however many the Lord sees fit to give us.” [THR]
Congratulations, Michelle! Now that you’re 44 and cruising toward menopause, I sure hope the Lord doesn’t see fit to give your next baby Down Syndrome. You know, the Lord works in such mysterious ways, the way He statistically makes it more dangerous for an older woman to give birth. I guess just keep praying really hard!

Hey lady, its a uterus, not a fcuking clown car!
this new kid is going to come sliding out of her hooha on a toboggan
I’m sure all those kids are destined for great things.
they should name it Hoobastank
I would like it if they simply named this kid “Another.” Well, not “like” so much; I’d actually like it a lot more if they just went and had an abortion.
/advises the Pretzel Wagon to steer clear of this house.
How the hell do you pay for 20 kids’ food, and clothes, not to mention education and leisure? Even they didn’t spawn one every year so that some are adult and on their own, I just dont… oh yeah, you just get paid for a show on TLC!! Thanks TLC!
@zach: They’d probably name it “Janother,” since they have a weird fixation on giving their kids names that start with “J”. Why do I know that?
Better they have twenty than Lindsay Lohan has one.
That shit should be criminal.
I’m going to start a collection to bribe her C-section surgeon to rip out everything that looks remotely like a reproductive organ. I wonder if Kickstarter will let me call the project “Kickstopper”.
So what’s the appropriate analogy for what creating weird-homeschooled-kid number 20 must have been like for the husband? Throwing a hot dog down a hallway?
“Well since that bored-out uterus of mine couldn’t even bring out last child to full-term, why not try again. That last one was a close call, LOL!”
As a parent of a premature baby (our daughter was born at 27 weeks, 1 lb 12oz. She’s two now and doing great) these people make me sick.
@senor efe: how about “Just Another?”
I remember this couple from Monty Python’s Meaning of Life.
Her gynaecologist probably just looks between her legs with a flashlight to confirm whether or not she’s pregnant. That OBGYN should go the way of Michael Jackson’s doctor.
NASA should coat their spacecraft in whatever it is that lines Michelle Duggar’s uterus, cause that shit is indestructible.
If there’s room for one more and then you have one more, there’s no room.
I like how the caption says “Another” big announcement, like its a yearly special report. Unsettling yet completely unsurprising.
Is she Catholic? Because without that whole no birth control thing, I’m thinking the earth’s population would stand at about 3.5 billion and there would actually be enough food and water for everyone. But, as long as God is happy with all the starvation, disease and overpopulation in the world. I’m going to pray for another billion.
@Chazz Goodtimes – More like throwing a pencil down a runway.
Some of the daughters look cute at the back, but the sons look ugly. Any chance that they have different fathers?
They’re some other
crazystupid type of Christian.Where’s the Joker to blow up their hospital when you need him?
How much negative pressure do you think her cooch creates.
Ten minutes with a rusty hanger and this irresponsible bitch….problem solved.
I think the whole debate over “God’s wants us to have as many kids as possible vs. having too many people leads to starvation, disease, crime etc..” is essentially a modern re-telling of the old cliche “Can God create a rock so heavy that he can’t lift it” lol.
Oh, and when this dumb bitch finally does go through menopause she’ll just start taking hormones so she can keep popping out another one every year until the day she dies.
We should have a limit on the number of stupid, white, religious people in America. The limit should be somewhere around 100. Each state gets 2.
At this point I believe they are out of ‘J’ names.
