Jessa Duggar Seewald's first baby might not yet be even a year old, but she is already getting close to welcoming baby number two.

The 23-year-old reality star took to Instagram on Tuesday to share a new photo of her burgeoning bump as she looks forward to welcoming her second baby with husband Ben Seewald.

She accompanied the photo of herself turned to the side in a red shirt at 25 weeks with a throwback image of herself, also at 25 weeks, from her first pregnancy.

The baby is due in February 2017 and will join the family as a sibling to the couple's 11-month-old son Spurgeon. 

Earlier this month, Jessa debuted her baby bump for the very first time.

The Jill & Jessa: Counting On star showed off her growing belly in a photo shared on the Duggar family Instagram on Friday, October 14.

She put her baby bump on display in a pink blouse with a tan textured skirt, adding a simple gold necklace.

Jessa, who is mom to 11-month old son Spurgeon, styled her brunette tresses with curls and a deep side part.

The photo was captioned: 'So great having all of our older daughters together while Jill is temporarily back in Arkansas!'

Jessa and Ben, 21, announced the baby number two news by sharing a family photo in August - nine months after welcoming Spurgeon.

In the snap, Ben holds a sign that reads 'Doubling the love. February 2017,' as Jessa holds their son in her arms. 

Although the twosome have not revealed the gender of their upcoming bundle of joy, they have been coming up with boy names.

So adorable: Last week, Jessa shared a sweet picture while cuddling her son; she captioned it: 'Babies in hats!!! Are they not the most darling things on earth'

In August, Jessa dished to People magazine that they 'talked about family names. Maybe Benjamin Michael the second. But Ben didn't like that. We've talked about incorporating a family name.' 

The former 19 Kids In Counting Star is set to celebrate her second wedding anniversary with Ben on November 1.

Last week, Jessa shared a sweet picture while cuddling with her son; she captioned it: 'Babies in hats!!! Are they not the most darling things on earth? #SpurgeonsElliotSeewald.'

She later posted a photo of Ben feeding Spurgeon, adding: 'My view from the living room...he's the best daddy!'
