Jessa Duggar accused of ‘oversharing’ after she jokes with fans about 5-year-old son Spurgeon’s bathroom habits

COUNTING On fans accused Jessa Duggar of going overboard with how much she’s sharing about her family’s private lives after she posts about bathroom habits.

The 28-year-old reality star posted multiple, detailed conversations that her kids – Spurgeon, five, Henry, four, Ivy, two, and Fern, three months – had had about “peeing and pooping.”

Followers called out Jessa after she shared tweet after tweet about the bathroom habits of her kids, whom she shares with husband Ben Seewald, and said she was being “embarrassing” and “traumatizing.”

In one social media post on Wednesday, the Counting On star wrote: “As we were riding in the car, Henry announced from the back seat, ‘1 is pee and 2 is poop.’ 

“Spurgeon corrected matter-of-factly, ‘Actually 1 is toot, 2 is pee, 3 is poop, and 4 is diarrhea.’ #SayingsofSpurgeon #SeewaldKidsSay”

Fans slammed her on Reddit, saying “it’s not cute” to post such vulgar comments and that they should be kept private.

“She wants to be a cute, relatable influencer Mom and she thinks this is how you achieve that,” one commented. “Not happening.”

Another confused user wondered: “Does she really need to post every weird thing her kids say?”

They added: “They are going to be so embarrassed in thr future. Anything to get attention.”

Others just said it was “disgusting” and noted that she shared similar tweets, as well.

In another, Jessa said: “After conversing with a little friend of his, Spurgeon reported to me, ‘She said, ‘Eat your boogers! They taste like ice cream!’ So I tasted it but it didn’t taste like ice cream. It was re-scgusting!’ #SayingsofSpurgeon #SeewaldKidsSay”

A third read: “Ivy was sitting at the table eating when she let out a little burp. She exclaimed, ‘I tooted in my mouth!’ #SayingsofIvy #SeewaldKidsSay”

One that fans specifically noted was once again “oversharing” was another about bathroom practices of Jessa’s sons.

“I asked Spurgeon what he wanted to eat for his bedtime snack,” she tweeted. “His straightforward reply: ‘Can I have two cheese sticks to make me constipated, and then grapes to make me not constipated?’”

FORGOING PRIVACY

Redditers accused her of “forgoing [her] children’s privacy” and not “protecting their dignity” by posting every little thing that they’ve said, no matter how personal.

A second asked the mother-of-four: “Why on earth would you feel the need to share this? These kids are going to be so traumatized when they're older, for so many reasons.”

Another told her: “The things you should write in a journal cause literally nobody cares except for mom and dad.”

Fans don't think this matches the other content she shares on Instagram, which often has sweet photos of her children.

She recently shared an adorable new snap of her two daughters Ivy and Fern wearing "matching sister dresses."

NEW ADDITION

The Counting On alum gave birth to her youngest daughter Fern in July.

Jessa proved that the sister bond is stronger than ever in her latest post on Instagram of the two girls.

The 29-year-old captured a pic of her two-year-old daughter Ivy embracing her little sister from behind as the pair wore similar outfits.

In one snap, Ivy has her eyes closed as she wrapped her arms around the three-month-old in a tight hug.

In the second shot, both girls are wide-eyed and smiling at the camera while perched up on the couch.

The toddler was dressed in a green plaid long-sleeve top, leggings, and a crème-colored beanie, while the newborn donned the same colored shirt with ruffled sleeves.

Fern also sported white leggings with a crème-colored headband to match her older sister.

Jessa captioned the post: "Matching sister dresses call for a pic! 🤍🤍"
