Now, Jessa is sharing another update about Henry and his speech. And, from what she says, it sounds like he’s doing very well. He’s right where he should be.

In a new interview with Us Weekly, Jessa opens up about Henry’s progress. The mom writes, “He wasn’t really talking when he turned 2, but you’ll see some of that speech journey of his this season and just how he’s developing and growing.”

Then, she continues, “We’re very thankful that he’s back on track. [It’s a] huge encouragement for us as parents, because we were nervous for quite a while, [thinking], ‘I guess you’re going to catch up.’ So he had an evaluation when he turned three. And so that’s exciting.”

As far as baby number four goes, no announcement has come yet. But, since Jessa has previously given birth in odd-numbered years, it’s possible that a new little one will join the family in 2021. But, Ben and Jessa are actively looking into adoption. This could be a long process, but they’re chatting with other adoptive families to get some information.
