The 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' star and the 'Bound 2' rapper are reportedly expecting a fourth child via a surrogate and are said to be "over the moon" about the news and hoping for a son.
A source told People magazine: "They've got to be over the moon [about the] wonderful news ... They've always talked about wanting four kids: two boys and two girls. That's always been the plan. They definitely want a boy."
The couple - who already have two daughters, North, five, and Chicago, 12 months, as well as son Saint, three - can't wait to add to their family, with a source recently revealing that children "stabilise" Kanye.
They said: "Kanye says that being a dad is the most important thing that he does, and despite his other problems, he's an involved, loving dad to his kids. He loves the innocence of children; they're not judging him. They don't care what he does for a living. They don't read the tabloids. To them, he's just Dad ... You should see him when he gets around the kids; he lights up. He smiles, he plays with them, he is genuinely excited to be around them and they respond the same way to him. They stabilise him. It's almost like a physical change."
Kim had previously opened up about the impact being a mother has had on her relationship with Kanye.
She said: "I absolutely think you can [be both a mother and sexy]. I was somebody who gained 60 or 70 pounds in my pregnancies and felt so unlike myself and so unsexy. Literally, at the end, when you can't even have sex, I thought, 'I'm never going to have sex again in my life!' I just felt so bad about myself in my soul. I didn't lose weight that quickly.
"But I'd say eight months later, I had probably my best body ever. I felt like, 'I did this. I lost all this weight on my own. I feel better than ever!' I just put my body through that, and so it was empowering when I did a nude shoot. I definitely have two different personalities like that. But I think motherhood has actually made me more confident about being publicly sexy."
