Soleil Moon Frye, on ‘The View,’ announces she’s having a baby boy

Soleil Moon Frye is having a baby boy, news that she shared with the ladies of “The View� and the gab fest’s viewership on Wednesday.

The “Punky Brewster� star, who is already mother to two girls, Jagger Joseph Blue, 5½, and Poet Sienna Rose, 8, is 5½ months along. She and husband Jason Goldberg are expecting their little mister in mid-February.

Frye announced she was pregnant on the “Today� show in August in conjunction with promoting her children’s app Moonfrye and OWN series “Home Made Simple.�

But she couldn’t deny the ladies of “The View� a little bit of booming baby excitement when she stepped in as guest host to promote her party-planning book “Let’s Get This Party Started.� Frye brought co-host Jenny McCarthy a wrapped present, saying that the sex of the baby was inside the box.

“I think we know the doctor says that this is the sex, so I have my baby’s sex in a box. So this is how we find out, we think we know,� the 37-year-old author admitted. “I’m in a little bit of denial.�

When McCarthy opened the present, she showed off the small blue baby slippers that were inside, confirming that Frye’s third child would be a boy. (Frye also shared the news with a photograph of the reveal on her blog.)

“I can’t believe it,� she said. “But the thing is I can’t imagine a penis growing inside of me, so I keep saying, ‘I think we know ... but I’m not sure.’�

Despite Frye’s denial, McCarthy asked her if she was happy -- and it seems as if the mom (and mom-to-be) is still adjusting to the idea of having a little man in the house.

“I was so shocked because I always thought that if you have two of one sex, the statistics are that you’ll have a third of the same sex. So I just thought we’d have three girls. And my girls still don’t completely believe it and they’re like, if it’s a boy we’re dressing him up!�
