Jill Duggar Dillard and Derick Dillard Welcomed Their Third Baby Together

Jill Duggar Dillard and Derick are expanding family and now they are family of five.

An American television personality, Jill Duggar Dillard, 31 and her lawyer husband, Derick Dillard, 33, welcomed their third baby boy together named as Frederick Michael Dillard. 

The couple shared the birth of the baby on their official website "dillardfamily", they wrote,

“Freddy” Frederick Michael Dillard is here!  He was born 7/7/2022 at 5:16pm weighing 7lbs. 6oz. and is 20 inches long. 

Frederick means “Peaceful Ruler” and Michael means “Gift from God.”  

The name Frederick also holds special meaning for us since it’s Derick’s name with “Fre” added to the front, to make “Fre-derick.”  Similarly, Derick’s name is a variation of his late dad’s name, Rick, that his parents created by adding “de” to the front of Rick to spell, “de”-“rick,” literally meaning son “of” (de) Rick.  We were excited to settle on the name Frederick and incorporate both Derick’s and his dad’s name, by just adding “Fre” to the beginning of Derick’s name. 

Frederick was set to arrive later in July, but he decided he wanted to come a little early (the day before big brother Samuel’s birthday!), so we had our planned C-section a bit before originally planned.  

Both Jill and Frederick are healthy and are enjoying bonding while we look forward to bringing him home from the hospital soon!
