Mom and baby Sam are doing well! Thank you to those who have been supporting us through your prayers and encouragement!”
It was reported by the family’s official website that Jill was in 40 hours of labor and delivered Samuel via C-section at the hospital. Their new little darling joins the couple’s first son, 2-year-old Israel.

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.”
