While this is Morgan and Karnik's first child together, the Wild Cards star is also a mom to 3-year-old son River, whom she shares with her ex-husband Michael Kopech. And River's just as excited as his mom for his new sibling.

"River literally asks everyday is baby sister coming today!? He’s so excited to be your big brother," Morgan wrote in her post.

She added, "Me, Riv & your Daddy can’t wait to meet you!"

"I talked to Kelly [and Mark] after I gave birth [to River]," she said at the time. "They were just excited for me, and gave me beautiful, beautiful baby clothes for River."
