It’s turning into the “Baby” show! The “Today” show’s Jenna Wolfe is having another child.

The morning anchor and correspondent announced Friday that she and partner Stephanie Gosk, a foreign correspondent for NBC News, are expecting their second child in February.

This time around, the couple will be having a baby girl, Wolfe said when she broke the news on the air after a quick segment on creative ways to announce pregnancies. (Hint: Use the “Today” show.)

“Harper is going to be a big sister,” Wolfe, 40, said after revealing her ultrasound and a picture of her family. “Stephanie and I are proud to announce we are having another baby girl. I figured I got pregnant, I did it right the first time. I’m just going to do the exact same thing again and we’re going to hope for the best.”

The “Today” family is growing quickly and seems to be making it a habit of generating and covering its own news: Co-host Savannah Guthrie welcomed her baby girl, Vale, earlier this month, and correspondent Carson Daly welcomed his third child, London Rose Daly, earlier this week.

“We’re actually going to [have the baby] here in the Orange Room,” Wolfe joked on Friday.

Gosk videochatted with the crew from Tel Aviv, where she’s covering the strife in Gaza.

“I didn’t want to miss out on [the announcement], I’m so excited,” Gosk said. “I didn’t want you to do it without me. First of all, Harper gets a sister, which is amazing. But on top of that, for the next five months we basically get to eat anything we want -- burgers, pizza -- it’s going to be a free for all!”

Wolfe and Gosk, who came out as an engaged couple when they announced in March 2013 that they were expecting, welcomed their first daughter Harper Estelle Wolfeld Gosk (Wolfeld is Wolfe’s legal name).

The first time around, the couple decided Wolfe would carry the child, then used artificial insemination with an anonymous donor.
