"19 Kids and Counting" alum Anna Duggar is reportedly being blamed for Jessa Seewald's recent pregnancy risk.
In an interview with People, Seewald revealed that Duggar gave her an advice on how to potentially make sure that her son would arrive on his expected due date.
"My sister-in-law Anna told me she walked up and down the stairs and that worked with her son Marcus. We walked up and down the stairs together 20 times until I was like, 'Okay, no more,'" she said.
However, one hour later Seewald started having contractions.
Fans now believe that Seewald shouldn't have listened to Duggar especially since every single pregnancy is different from others.
"Labor is hard. It was very intense, very long. Everything was different than I expected," she said.
Seewald gave birth to her son Spurgeon Elliot after a 48-hour home delivery. The bouncing baby boy measured 21.5 inches and 9 lbs. 11 oz. at birth.
Meanwhile, before giving birth, Seewald revealed that she experienced ten hours of contractions. At that time, she almost changed her mind on whether or not it's best to still have an all-natural home birth.
"I said, 'That's it! I'm done! I am going to the hospital and I'm going to get an epidural. They asked me if I really wanted to do that and I said, 'No, I don't, but I do.' I wanted to try natural if at all possible," she said.
In other news, Seewald, her husband Ben, sister Jill Dillard and brother-in-law Derick will all star in the upcoming TLC special "Counting On" next month.
