14 DAY TRIAL // Several major celebrity publications have claimed without a doubt that Jessica Biel is pregnant with her first child with husband Justin Timberlake. There have been reports from different people in her entourage, as well as some photos indicating that Jessica's normally toned abs looks to be hiding a baby bump, but the actress has remained silent on the matter.
Hollywoodlife claims that the reason for this silence when the media has already decided to break the news is that Biel isn't sure of the outcome of the pregnancy at this point. One source claims that Jessica and Justin will be making the official announcement once “they're out of the woods for a miscarriage.”
The couple is keeping the baby a secret, they fear the publicity will affect Jessica
“Justin is being super private right now, but that makes sense if Jessica is pregnant because he’s always been bothered by the attention that celebrity kids get,” another source claims. “It makes him angry and freaks him out because he thinks it’s unhealthy for them and scary, so it’s not a surprise at all that he’s being so secretive about everything.”
It turns out that Jessica has been trying to get pregnant for some time, and the fact that she's keeping this a secret for so long could be an indication of the fact that she'd suffered a miscarriage in the past. Now Jessica and Justin want to be further along in the pregnancy before they get everyone's hopes up, including their own.
Latest reports indicated that Jessica was around 3 or 4 months along in her pregnancy, and sources speculated that she was going to give birth sometime around April next year.
Jessica wants at least two children, based on the close relationship she had with her own brother
It is believed that Jessica wants at least two children with Justin, based on the close relationship she had with her own brother growing up. “She wants her children to have that sibling bond; she feels it’s very important,” said one insider.
Biel was spotted with the beginning of a baby bump on several occasions last month, first during a holiday in Hawaii, while she was in a bathing suit, and then later, while on a hiking trip with husband Justin Timberlake in Australia.
There has also been talk that Jessica, normally a person who doesn't get sick easily, was plagued by morning sickness, which was another way her friends caught on that she was pregnant with a child.
All that we can do at this point is sit and wait for the official announcement and hope that it will also include the baby's gender, which should be known by the time they decide to tell the world.
