It’s A Rainbow Child For The Counting On Star

Joy-Anna had a very different way of breaking her pregnancy news to Justin. The 26 years old was totally unaware that he was going to become a father. Joy-Anna had an ornament for the new baby and boxed it up as a Christmas present with a positive pregnancy test. Justin was more than excited about the upcoming bundle of joy. But it wasn’t all smooth sailing. Till the first eight weeks, Joy was experiencing a lot of spotting.

Moreover, the gynecologist was concerned that this could be a Molar Pregnancy. And this means that the fertilized egg wasn’t viable. The Counting On star admitted that “Going through all of this again after going through it with Annabell. It’s been a tough few weeks. Hopefully, by ten weeks, we’ll know whether or not this is a viable pregnancy.”

Luckily, it was all good news, and the pregnancy news came with a surprise. The young couple got to know that they are expecting a girl child, who’s due by August 19. “It’s such a relief. The last, I don’t know, a month? We’ve just been unsure if it was going to be a viable pregnancy or not. It’s just like a huge load lifted off our shoulders knowing that the test came back good,” the couple told their fans. However, for more updates, stay tuned to TV Seasons and Spoilers.
