Ciara Hints at Baby Girl as She Prepares for Fifth Child

Ciara, 40, has offered subtle hints about the gender of her fifth child, sparking fan speculation after announcing her pregnancy earlier this month. The singer recently appeared at the iHeart Music Festival, where she engaged in conversations about women's health and HIV prevention with Gilead.

During her appearance, Ciara shared a caption on Instagram: "Soft girl. Full house. Full heart." The phrase "soft girl" is often associated with hyper-femininity and self-care, leading many to believe she is expecting a daughter. This potential clue follows her pregnancy announcement, where she was seen wearing pink hair rollers, another symbol often linked to expecting a baby girl.

The singer's pregnancy announcement video featured a clip of white onesies hanging on a clothesline, with one small, blank onesie added at the end. Ciara then cradled her baby bump and held up five fingers, signifying her fifth child.

Ciara and her husband, NFL star Russell Wilson, are already parents to Sienna, Win, and Amora. Ciara also has an older son, Future Zahir, from a previous relationship. Wilson had previously expressed his desire for a fifth child, telling E! News in July, "Cinco, you got to be on the way soon."

Ciara has previously described motherhood and balancing it with her career as "organized chaos." She emphasizes the importance of schedules for children to help them thrive. She also credited Wilson as a partner, calling their co-parenting a "blessing" that brings them closer.

In June, Russell Wilson announced his retirement from the NFL after a 14-year career, a move Ciara celebrated with a public tribute to her husband.
