Reality star Jana Duggar is going to be a mom! The 19 Kids and Counting alum announced that she and her husband, Stephen Wissmann, are expecting their first child together. The joyful news comes just one year after the couple tied the knot.

The pair shared their announcement on Instagram with sweet outdoor photos. In the pictures, Jana wore a lovely dress that showed her growing baby bump, while Stephen stood beside her. Along with the photos, the couple shared a heartfelt message, revealing that their baby is due in January 2026. “We are so excited, January 2026 is going to come with a little bundle of joy joining our family! We’re counting down the days and eagerly looking forward to this thrilling new chapter in our lives,” they wrote.

Jana and Stephen’s love story goes back many years. The two first met as teenagers and briefly dated in the early 2020s before parting ways but remained friends. They reconnected in early 2024, started dating again, and announced their engagement in June 2024. Just two months later, they exchanged vows in a beautiful ceremony in Arkansas with over 500 guests.

Speaking about their journey, Jana has said that she found love later than most of her siblings, but Stephen’s patience and kindness stood out to her. “His coming back, still loving me no matter what … I know we have a big crazy family, and he must really, genuinely care about me,” she shared.
