Dec.12, (THAINDIAN NEWS) The largest family of the nation has got its newest member. The infant christened Josie Brooklyn Duggar was born on 10th December. She has 18 siblings and curiously, one niece. The little girl and one day old aunt has a niece in Mackynzie Duggar. The latter was born to her senior most brother Josh and his spouse Anna. The niece as anyone can assume is older than the aunt. She was born on October this year.

The Duggar household based in Arkansas created a sensation among the TV viewers when the news of their large and ever increasing family was shown on a Discovery Health Channel documentary. It was named “14 Children and Pregnant Again”. Jim Bob was seen along with his family members in a polling location in 2002 Senate run and that led to the making of the documentary. The family has become the focus of a popular TLC reality show.

The Duggar family keeps on expanding and the 19th baby is the proof of that. It was not clear whether the mother had gall bladder problems or had to go through a c -section. The baby is healthy and it is doing well after birth. It weighs only 1 lb., 6 oz. Thankfully, the mother of the baby did not develop any complication after she was born. However, the doctors confirmed that it is a case of premature birth as the infant was skated to be born in March 2010. Of course the Duggar family is happy and upbeat at the birth of the newborn.
