Since revealing her pregnancy to the world with dramatic flair at the MTV Video Music Awards, the world has been on constant Beyonce Bump Watch.

Now, finally, an update!

On Australian news program Sunday Night, it was revealed that the little bundle of joy is due in February, and Mrs. Carter was absolutely glowing as she talked about her relationship leading to this pivotal milestone:

“My husband and I have been together for 10 years---all of my 20s---and I just feel like it’s time and I’m very grateful that God has blessed me with the biggest gift any human being can have. I think because I’ve accomplished a lot of things for myself and I really know who I am, I didn’t rush into anything. If it’s any time, right now is the time, and I’m so happy.”

Beyonce recently released her new video Countdown --- a mod-inspired, high-energy number where she freely allows her baby to take center stage. It has been rumored that Beyonce and Jay-Z are hoping for a boy, so that sister Solange’s son, Jules, will have some company.

We’ll just have to wait to find out!
