Another Duggar pregnancy: Would Anna truly want '25' kids?

There will be another Duggar pregnancy, reported Yahoo! OMG! on March 11. Jim Bob Duggar and Michelle Duggar, parents of 19 kids, and stars of TLC's "19 Kids and Counting," are expected a grandchild. Josh Duggar, 25, the eldest child of the couple, and his wife Anna Duggar, 24, are expecting their third child. At first, Anna's pregnancy test was negative. "I thought for sure I was pregnant, and so I was a little disappointed," said Anna. "But two weeks later, I found out I was pregnant."

Said Josh, "With my mom's last pregnancy, there are questions and the fear of every expectant parent that this could end. There is always some sort of risk with pregnancy, and you never really know," he said.

So, does the oldest Duggar have plans for a boat load of children like his parents? "'We’ve decided we’re going to have 25.' I always say that jokingly, but there’s a lot that goes into a family, and a lot of hard work, and that point often gets overlooked, especially with the harshness the economy is going through now," said Josh in 2011. "[The cost of children] is something we think about, but it’s often a sacrifice to be able to raise a child and do it well, whether you have one sacrifice or 19. It’s really not about the number of children you have, but how well are you doing with the children that God has given you."

That's an intriguing comment from Josh. However, if one were to look deep into the soul of Anna Duggar, the person who has to carry the children, would she truly want 25 kids?
