The Dillards announced they were expecting their second child last December and in January revealed they were expecting a second boy. This is the second C-section for Jill, who had an emergency C-section with Israel in 2015. Despite complications with her first pregnancy, she told PEOPLE in February that she was more calm for her second child.
“There’s a level of ease that comes with your second pregnancy,” she said. “Derick and I have been down this road together, so we’re comfortable. I’m just going to see how it goes, try to be healthy and prepare as much as I can. But this time I know that labor is unpredictable.”
