ARKANSAS: Talk about the finest Christmas present in the world! Jeremiah and Hannah Duggar welcomed their first child into the world on December 25, 2022.

A new Duggar child has been born. 'Counting On' stars Jeremiah and Hannah Duggar had their first child and it is a daughter. Jeremiah chose to announce the momentous news on his Instagram. He also shared a picture of the new family and the little one's name. She came a little early, according to Jeremiah. "After an incredible year, God gave us a precious Christmas gift to top it all off!! Baby girl decided to arrive early and we are totally and completely in love with our little Brynley Noelle. 💖 12.25.22 • 6lbs 15oz • 19.5 in," the new father remarked.

Jeremiah and Hannah revealed their pregnancy in August 2022, barely five months after their wedding. The pair did not announce a due date at first, but they did reveal the gender to their Instagram followers in October. Hannah and Jeremiah's new baby is clearly a honeymoon baby. Her delivery occurred about nine months after their wedding date.

Jeremiah and Hannah are not the only pair that had a kid less than a year after being married. Nine months after their wedding, Joseph Duggar and Kendra Caldwell also had their first child. Jill Dillard and Derick Dillard, like Joy-Anna Forsyth and Austin Forsyth, had their first child less than a year after their wedding.

Jeremiah and Hannah's family was quick to respond to the happy announcement on Instagram. Josie Balka wrote, "😍😍😍 Sooo happy for you! Cannot wait to meet her 🥰." Alathyia Wissmann, Hannah's sister, wrote, "She’s so perfect!! 💖 Love you three so much!!🤟🏼🥹🫶🏼." Fans also expressed their delight. "What a Christmas miracle!!!! Congratulations Jer and Hannah!!!" said one. "Oh my goodness she’s absolutely perfect! I really love her name! ❤️," said another.



 

Jeremiah limited the number of comments on the post so that not everyone who wanted to could. This makes sense given that his brother Josh Duggar has a troubled background and has been incarcerated. This is a moment to rejoice, not to mock.

Although the year 2023 is new, the Duggars will have at least two babies born this year. Joy-Anna Forsyth's third child is due in May 2023, while Katey Nakatsu and Jedidiah Duggar are expecting their second baby in the same month. There's even a chance that another Duggar is secretly pregnant as well.
