But did she have a C-section with her third baby, Josiah?Source: Instagram/@toriroloffArticle continues below advertisement On May 8, 2022, the mom of three took to her Instagram story to open up about her postpartum recovery. “I’ve gotten a lot of messages about how quickly I’ve bounced back,” Tori wrote, about a week after giving birth. “I’m all about keeping it real. You see the best moments on instagram. You see when we’re feeling our best.” "Everyone kept telling me after the fact how hard C-section No. 3 is ... they're right! I don't remember pain like that," she continued. "My pain was so bad the first night home we almost called 911. Luckily, I was able to get back on track with medication after that."Article continues below advertisementSource: Instagram/@toriroloff Is Josiah Roloff a little person Because Tori did end up delivering Josiah via C-section, many fans have assumed he has achondroplasia. But does he? Neither Zach nor Tori have shared whether Josiah is a little person. It's worth noting, however, there are other reasons a C-section would be warranted — and it doesn't necessarily confirm that Josiah has dwarfism.Article continues below advertisement Either way, Zach and Tori have likely known since about the midway point of pregnancy. Tori explained when she was pregnant with Lilah that they found out she would be a dwarf because her long bones were measuring shorter and her head was measuring larger than average.Article continues below advertisement When she was pregnant with Josiah, Tori addressed whether they were going to find out if baby No. 3 was a little person. "I wish this could be a surprise too but when they [doctors] tell me I need a C-section, it makes it sort of obvious,” she said during an AMA session via Instagram. Tori followed this up with: "We won't know if he or she is a dwarf until further into pregnancy. And with dwarves it's encouraged to have a C-section because of bigger head size. I was saying I'd love to not know but IF my doc says I need a C-section, it would be obvious to us."Article continues below advertisementSource: Instagram/@toriroloff What was Jackson Roloff' s birth weight Some fans have taken to comparing Josiah's birth weight to that of his older brother, Jackson, in an attempt to figure out whether the youngest Roloff is a little person. Except, this isn't an accurate indicator of dwarfism either. At birth, Jackson Roloff (who is a dwarf) weighed in at 9 pounds, 1 ounce, and was 20.5 inches long, according to People — which is actually on the bigger side for a newborn. Josiah weighed 7 pounds, 6 ounces, and was 19.5 inches long, which is a bit smaller. But again, this isn't necessarily an indicator of dwarfism.Article continues below advertisement Until the parents of three share more information, however, it's impossible to know for sure if Josiah is a little person like Zach and his older siblings, or is average-sized like Tori.
