Six weeks later, she became pregnant again, despite her and her partner using protection.
This means that she has only been pregnant for one month in the last year and a half.
It’s possible to get pregnant again just three weeks after giving birth, so you should always use contraception unless you want to get pregnant again.
On TikTok, Jacqueline revealed that Emma has just turned nine months old, meaning she is two weeks away from giving birth to her third baby.
Due to their proximity in age, Emma and her new brother will be classified as Irish twins.
Babies born less than 12 months apart are known to be Irish twins.
The term Irish twins was initially used as a derogatory term directed at Irish Catholics who emigrated to America.
Because Catholics do not believe in contraception, Irish families were often large, with children born close in age.
Jacqueline said that people often stare at her on the street when they see her carrying a little baby, with a pregnant belly.
However, she doesn’t mind the judgment and is excited about her growing family.
