Meghan Trainor is a boy mom all the way!
She recently announced that her second child, who she's currently 28 weeks pregnant with, is a boy. And to make the day even more exciting for Trainor, 29, this announcement happened on the same day as her first book, "Dear Future Mama" was released to the public.
Meghan Trainor Is Having Another Boy!
The "Made You Look" singer's gender reveal announcement happened during her appearance on "The Kelly Clarkson Show" on Tuesday morning.
Clarkson pointed out that Trainor revealed the gender of her first baby, Riley, 2, on her show and she was hoping for her to repeat that during this appearance.
After some quick banter back and forth, Riley appeared on the screen behind Clarkson, Trainor and her husband Daryl Sabara on stage as he revealed he's going to soon have a baby brother. "It's a boy!" he said with his hands in the air in excitement.
Earlier in the month, Trainor told PEOPLE that her and Sabara can't wait for Riley to be a big brother. She's made it no secret that she wants more children.
"I look at my husband and go, 'We are so lucky,'" she said. "I'm the best version of me. Each kid's going to bring a new version of me that I think is going to be badass - so I need four, at least!"
Meghan Trainor's First Book, "Dear Future Mama" Was Just Released!
After months of sharing information about her new book, the day has finally come for it to be released to the public. The singer explained in an Instagram post that the book is all about her pregnancy and motherhood journey with Riley with lots of TMI moments.
"It’s very TMI and hopefully makes all pregnant warriors out there feel a little less alone," she wrote in the caption of her post.
In another Instagram post, she shared more information about the book's release and what readers can expect.
"Being pregnant for the first time was super lonely, confusing and I wish I had a bestie to go through it with," the caption reads. "So if you’re pregnant, planning to be pregnant, or have a pregnant bestie or partner, let me be your bestie and hold your hand through it all."

Many of Trainor's followers left comments about their excitement about the book.
"Man, I wish I had this book when I had my first kid. Now I’m 36 with 7 kids (a set of twins) and all the stuff you named is what I mainly went though. Think I’m gonna get this book because I bet it’s gonna be amazing!," one person wrote.
Another added, "Wish I had this before becoming pregs! 2 kids later, I'm done having babies but I will probably still read this 🙈."
Meghan Trainor Is Still Dealing With The Backlash Of Her Recent Podcast
During a recent episode of her "Workin' On It" podcast, the "I Am Your Mother" singer made some insensitive statements about teachers and the internet took notice and began sharing their thoughts.
Trainor said, "F teachers" during a conversation with Trisha Paytas on the podcast and later issued an apology on TikTok after many pointed out how hateful and wrong that comment was. But many teachers on TikTok didn't accept her apology and shared their own videos as to why.
“Teachers of TikTok and teachers of the world, I recently said, ‘F teachers’ on a podcast, and it’s not how I feel,” she began her apology.
“I was fired up because we were talking about how sending your kid to school here in America is so horrific, and what all of us have to go through, especially teachers is not normal and not okay.”
Trainor recently shared a video on TikTok to tease the gender reveal ahead of her appearance on Clarkson's show, and many of her followers took to the comments to remind her about the teacher conversation.
A quick scroll through the comments and most of them mentioned teachers, such as, "It’s a Teacher!," or "Hello future teacher!"
