Janet Jackson will complete a milestone this year when she turns 50 on May 16. Another highlight of the year is-----pregnancy for the first time.

Perhaps. It was last month that she put off the second leg of her Unbreakable World Tour so that she could focus on her family.

It seems to have been a fruitful delay. Sources claim that she and husband Wissam Al Mana will have a baby later this year!

"Janet is healthy and she and Wissam are looking forward to becoming parents," said one source.

She had announced her postponement in a video posted online April 6. She thanked fans for their support and explained: "My husband and I are planning our family. So I'm going to have to delay the tour. Please, if you can try and understand that it's important that I do this now. I have to rest up, doctor's orders. But I have not forgotten about you. I will continue the tour as soon as I possibly can."

The youngest member of the famous Jackson family secretly married in 2012 Al Mana, a Qatar-based businessman worth billions, but confirmed  their union only early 2013. "We were married in a quiet, private and beautiful ceremony," the newlyweds said at the time. "Our wedding gifts to one another were contributions to our respective favorite children's charities. We would appreciate that our privacy is respected and that we are allowed this time for celebration and joy."

She has always wanted children. "I would love to have children of our own, but we also would love to adopt," she said in 2008, even when she was dating record producer Jermaine Dupri. "So, we'll see what happens. It'll happen someday."

In a 2009 interview, the woman behind best-selling albums like "Control", "Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation 1814"and "The Velvet Rope" said: "Sure, I'd adopt. And I think that if I'm really supposed to have kids, it will happen if that's God's plan for me."

That is one more dream that seems to be coming true this year!
