Will Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald Move Now That She is Pregnant with Baby #4?
Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald’s house gets a lot closer in summer. The couple, who got married in 2014, just shared some big Duggar news. They are expecting their fourth child after a miscarriage in 2020. While the couple is excited, fans have some questions about how they will fit another child into their home. Will Jessa and Ben move now that they will soon be a family of six?
Jessa Duggar and Kendra Caldwell are the only two pregnant Duggar
2019 was a baby boom for the Duggar family. At one point in time, six family members were pregnant at the same time, and several of them were delivered from each other within weeks. Jessa started with the arrival of her daughter Ivy Jane Seewald in May 2019. Kendra Caldwell, Anna Duggar and Lauren Swanson gave birth to all girls in November 2019, and Abbie Burnett welcomed their first daughter with John David Duggar in January 2020.

2020 turned out to be a much quieter year in terms of Duggar pregnancy news. Only Jinger Duggar and her sister Joy-Anna Duggar welcomed babies in 2020. Joy gave birth to a healthy girl in August 2020. Jinger and her husband Jeremy Vuolo announced the arrival of Evangeline Jo Vuolo in November. Development in 2021 is similarly calm. Kendra and Jessa are the only ones currently pregnant, at least publicly. Kendra is expected in late February and Jessa is expecting a baby in summer. Jessa made the announcement on Instagram this week.
Where do Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald live?
Supporters of the Duggar family are concerned about Jessa and Ben’s life situation. Since their marriage, the two have lived in a small house near a motorway. The location of the house is not ideal for children, but fans are more interested in the layout of the house. According to Remax, the house was built in 1964 and sits on half an acre lot. The interior has only one floor and offers around 1,000 square meters of living space. This space is divided into two bedrooms, a bathroom and an open living room, kitchen and dining area.

While the house would be fine for a small family, Jessa and Ben’s ever-growing workforce is getting a bit tight. They even broke one of the Duggar family’s biggest rules to make the logistics work. They set up their daughter’s bed in the same room as their two sons.
Will Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald move now that they are expecting one more?
Now with a fourth child on the way, fans are wondering if Jessa and Ben will share more Duggar news. Maybe, just maybe, they are wondering if they are going to move into a new home. For now, they seem to be sticking to their tiny starter house. Last month, Jessa posted a YouTube video about building a loft bed to accommodate her three children in a single room. She hadn’t announced her pregnancy at the time, but it is now clear that Ivy has been taken to the boys’ bedroom to make room for the newest addition to her family.

It seems obvious they won’t move, at least before the new baby arrives, and probably not until a few months later. If the family moves into a bigger house at some point, it probably won’t be until 2022 or later. Whether this house will be one that Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar will provide remains to be seen.
