All about Israel: One month old!

It feels like yesterday, we were announcing that Derick and Jill had welcomed their son, Israel David, and now he is a month old! He is growing. Derick and Jill had a busy month this month since giving birth. Jill is still recovering from her c-section and has been getting help from everyone in her family. 
 This month the family has revealed that Josiah and Marjorie are in a courtship and Ben and Jessa are expecting their first cousin. 

His birth story aired yesterday on TLC! Click here for the recap!

    With Jill being a midwife in training, why did she wait after 70 hours of labor to go to the hospital?? I have never heard of such a thing. NO ONE goes that long in labor without help.

      Hi Anonymous,
      Everyone labors at their own pace. Jill wanted to do a home birth. She actually went to the hospital about 50 hours of labor after she found out something was wrong. The doctor said that she was fine. She was under the care of a midwife

    I don't agree with what you are saying. When someone's water breaks and Jill is still walking around and goes to a basketball game, something is wrong here. These girls are very young and they dont fully understand what to do...but when they are saying 50, 70 hours of waiting, it's unheard of.

    Hi anonymous
    They filmed it before her water broke. Every labor is different.
