josieArkansas, Apr 7, (THAINDIAN NEWS) Josie Brooklyn Duggar, the youngest member of the Duggar family, is finally ready to join his family after spending four months after her birth in the hospital, under intensive postnatal care. So now, she is all ready to become the youngest of the cast in the family show based on the Duggars, “19 And Counting.” Josie Brooklyn Duggar will be taking her first step in celebrity-dom with the milestone episode of the popular series which will be named “19 And Counting:’ Josie Comes Home.” Needless to say, her parents, Jim Bob Duggar and Michelle Duggar, are extremely excited at the return of their 19th child, and admittedly, are “running on adrenaline.”

Josie Brooklyn Duggar could not be taken home immediately as her mother was suffering from preeclampsia. Moreover, she was also born extremely premature, at only 25 weeks. She weighed terribly low at a mere 1lb and 6 oz, and had to be taken immediately into neonatal intensive care in the Arkansas Childrens’ Hospital. She remained in round the clock care for the next four months, until the doctors gave her parents permission to take her back home.

In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong again, Jim Bob Duggar and Michelle Duggar have decided that for the time being they would be staying, along with the now nineteen members of their family, in the rented house that they have been staying for the past four months. They will then be returning to their own home in Springdale. The happy and relieved parents have reported that at present, Josie Brooklyn Duggar is doing quite well, and that she now weighs a healthy two pounds.
