Joy-Anna, 24, shared a YouTube video from the moment that she learned that she and Austin were expecting another baby.
The video kicked off with her alone in a bathroom during a trip to Alaska, saying to the camera: “I think I might be pregnant. We’ve been trying and I’m really excited if we are. If we’re not, that’s fine too.”
She added: “I’m actually kind of shaking. Like, I’m excited.”
The reality star was then joined by Austin in the bathroom, where they discussed their desire to have another child.
Joy-Anna said in the video: “Ok, well….We’ve been trying and we’re both ready to have No. 3.”
Austin then jumped in, saying: “Or maybe No. 3 and four. That would be a lot of work.”
The mom of two then began to cry, leaning on her man, as she explained: “We’re at a really good spot right now. We love our family. We’re ready to expand and so we’re really, really hoping we get pregnant. It’d be great if it was twins. It’d be fun.
“Anyway so we’re gonna look at the test in just a second. It’s gonna tell us pregnant or not pregnant and I will be happy either way but I would love, love, love to have No. 3.”

Holding the test in her hands, covered in the wrapper, she said: “Ok here’s the pregnancy test. I feel like I should wait to open it. I don’t know why. How do you tell if it’s time?”
She handed it to Austin, who pulled the test out to expose the result.
He kept a straight face as he handed it back to his eager wife.
Upon seeing the result, she started to sob and hugged Austin, who was sitting next to her.
Joy-Anna exclaimed: “We’re pregnant. We’re having a baby, babe. We’re having a baby. Oh my goodness.
I’m so excited.”
She added: “Man these tests are good because I’m like four days early and that is incredible.”
SHARING THE NEWS
Joy-Anna and Austin announced the pregnancy earlier this week.
The reality star took to Instagram on Wednesday to share the happy news, as she posed alongside her husband.
The couple caressed and the young father gave his wife a kiss as she showed off ultrasound photos.
In a second snap, Joy-Anna posed with Austin and their two children, Gideon, four, and Evelyn, two.
The proud parents gazed at one another with loving expressions while the kids smiled brightly at the camera.
Evelyn held the ultrasound photos as she proudly showed off her future sister.
Joy-Anna captioned the post: “Baby #3 is on the way! Full Video Is On YouTube Now! *link in bio*.”
Fans have been speculating for some time that the TLC star could be expecting, noting a series of social media clues.
In August, the TV personality fueled speculation after she was spotted hiding behind family members in photos.
The Duggar family gathered to celebrate their sister-in-law Abbie’s baby shower.
Those who attended the party shared sweet snaps, including a group shot featuring several Duggar ladies and their family friends.
One such photo, shared by Esther Bates, shows Joy-Anna hiding behind pregnant Abbie.
Her midsection was hidden under a baggy gingham dress as she turned her body away from the camera.
Reddit users shared other snaps from the celebration, which give a slightly better view of Joy-Anna’s stomach.
While not uncommon due to the Duggar modesty standards, fans thought it could be a clue.
One Reddit user wrote: “Joy is probably pregnant again.”
