(Uh-oh. Quiverfull has migrated across the Pond. Meet Britain's answer to the Duggars...)

DEBBIE SHEPHERD lovingly cradles her 15-month-old daughter above the bump that shows the world she is pregnant again.

And when the child arrives it will be one of 13 children born to Debbie, 44, and hubby Stephen, who have vowed to have as many kids as she can bear.

Strict born-again Christians from Grantham, Lincs, their beliefs stem from controversial American movement Quiverfull.

They view their children — aged 15 months to 20 years — as blessings from God which should not be controlled using contraception or abortion.
