Jessa Duggar Shows Off 'Baby Seewald,' Breaks Social Media Silence With Ultrasound Photo

Introducing Baby Seewald.

After weeks of media attention and headlines surrounding the Duggar family - it's time for some happy news.

Jessa Duggar, whose social media account has been noticeable inactive since reports about her child molestation cases were made public, has broken her social media fast with a photo of her unborn child.

The "19 Kids and Counting" star, who is expecting her first child with husband Ben Seeweld, shared a photo of her ultrasound on both Twitter and Instagram. Along with the ultrasound, she also noted that she was 19 weeks and 3 days into her pregnancy.

"#BabySeewald makes a first appearance today!!! #19weeks3days Yay! Almost halfway," she captioned the adorable shot. "Your daddy and I love you so much! #FirstUltrasound - with @Ben_Seewald."

Duggar's last post was on May 19, which was two days before her brother, Josh Duggar, addressed reports that he had molested five girls when he was 14 years old. It was later revealed that Josh's sisters Jill and Jessa were among the victims, including two other sisters and a babysitter.

In an interview with The Kelly File, the expectant mother defended her brother, saying, "I do want to speak up in his defense against people who are calling him a child molester or a pedophile or a rapist, some people are saying."

She continued, "I'm like that is so overboard and a lie really, I mean people get mad at me for saying that but I can say this because I was one of the victims. So I can speak out and I can say this and set the record straight here. Like in Josh's case, he was a boy, a young boy in puberty and a little too curious about girls. And that got him into some trouble. And he made some bad choices, but really the extent of it was mild, inappropriate touching, on fully clothed victims, most of it while girls were sleeping."
