But what caught the attention of many was Kelton speaking in the background, saying, “It’s going to be a big boy.” Josie’s third child will be Gil and Kelly Jo’s 28th grandchild.

Bringing Up Bates: Josie Bates Says She’s Getting Induced

Aside from her flu, Josie also shared an update about her pregnancy. According to the Bringing Up Bates star, she’s getting induced in a couple of weeks. It’s a method doctors use to bring on labor before a woman goes into labor on her own. Some Redditors from the same thread pointed out that some of Josie’s sisters, who had clotting disorders, had their babies a few weeks early, which could mean that she also suffers from the same condition.

  • I think Josie has the same clotting disorder as her sisters and they all have their babies a few weeks early.”
  • Doesn’t Josie also have something similiar to RH incompatiblity too?”
  • They actually have! I remember both Erin and Josie talking about how grateful they are because they found out what caused their miscarriage(s) and could control it with injections. The bar is in hell but at least there’s that lol”

It’s unclear where or how Josie Bates got the flu. However, the 10th Bates child did a marriage retreat with her husband, Kelton, earlier this year and has also been embracing the snowy weather in East Tennessee.
