Jessa Had A Big Surprise For Fans As The Video Came To A Close
Jessa continued, noting, âI sort of hope I get woken up in the middle of the night with contractions. Itâs hilarious that I would actually feel that way because a lot of times you just kind of dread going through labor and delivery cuz you know itâs going to be intense.â
