Today show weather presenter Natalie Cooper is pregnant with her first child.
The bubbly 34-year-old revealed the happy news during the Channel Nine breakfast show on Monday morning, and shared an ultrasound of her baby.
‘I have a long range forecast for February and it has nothing to do with the weather! she told her co-stars Karl Stefanovic, Georgie Gardner, Tim Gilbert and Sylvia Jeffreys.
I’m forecasting a lot of sleepless nights for me because my husband Carl (Fox) and I are having a baby.’

Natalia explained that she is already halfway through her pregnancy, but has only just started to show.
‘Not much of a bump yet because I think it’s my first time it’s all in there. It looks like maybe I have had to many pies,’ she joked.
The popular star said she hasn’t found out the sex of the baby yet, but joked that she would name her bub after Today show hosts Karl Stefanovic and Georgie Gardner.
‘The ultrasound lady said “we don’t know if it’s a boy or girl”, it was moving around so much and jumping around. She said if it’s a boy or girl, has character. We’re thinking maybe Karl, Carrie for a girl. And Georgie George?’ she said with a laugh.
Natalia said she was feeling pretty good during her first pregnancy, but admitted she did suffer from morning sickness in the first few weeks.
‘It’s a whole new world pregnancy, not having done it before. It does all sorts of things to your body. I’m feeling pretty good and obviously thrilled. It’s just wonderful,’ she said.
‘The first 12 weeks I had a bit, yeah, definitely felt a bit queasy and had to eat a lot. I have a lot of family and friends that have had it a lot worse.’
Richard Wilkins gifted Natalia a big beautiful bouquet of flowers and a basket of gifts for the impending arrival.
Natalia and her husband Carl tied the knot back in March 2016.
The couple wed at Merribee House on the South Coast of New South Wales surrounded by family and friends.
