Joseline Hernandez posted a series of mirror selfies on Monday showing her baby bump and a hairstyle in progress, teasing fans with what she called “labor braids.” The 40-year-old’s caption hinted at the imminent arrival of her second child and first with her husband, Balistic Beats. “You know what that mean when the hair bout to get braided,” she wrote alongside the photos, inviting fans to guess when the baby might arrive.
Hernandez’s pregnancy has drawn attention for its length. Fans flooded both her Instagram and The Shade Room’s comment sections with jokes about how long her journey has felt this time around. “Jos been pregnant for 50/11 months,” one user joked. Another added, “Damn thought that baby was 1 years old by now.” While some comments offered prayers and well wishes, others kept up the playful banter on the apparent wait.
Hernandez herself replied to The Shade Room’s comments, writing, “Baby Here Any day now!😍😍😍😍😍 yes this hair bout to get braided this am to get ready for this delivery.” Another fan noted the tradition of “labor braids” as a sign the birth was close. “Labor braids on and baby loading?? Congratulations Joseline!! ❤️🙏🏾 A whole blessing on the way,” said @theeramillionaire.
The timing of the baby’s arrival remains uncertain. A recent clip from the ‘We In Miami’ podcast suggested Hernandez is about four weeks from giving birth. She has not confirmed an exact date. However, the braiding session on Monday indicates preparations are underway.
Hernandez also confirmed plans to livestream the birth on her network, ‘Why Are You Here TV.’ This will be her second televised delivery. Nine years ago, she gave birth to her daughter Bonnie Bella at home and aired the event on VH1 in a special titled ‘Joseline’s Special Delivery.’
In the photos shared Monday, Hernandez wore a two-piece tropical outfit exposing her belly. Her hair was visibly loose before the braiding session. The modest reveal of her baby bump followed birthday photos earlier this year, where she showed off platinum blonde hair and her pregnancy progress.
Fans have embraced Hernandez’s openness about her pregnancy and birth plans, often engaging with her updates and jokes. The playful tone in the comments around her “long” pregnancy suggests her followers are eager for the new arrival but enjoying the wait alongside her.
Joseline Hernandez’s second child will be her first with Balistic Beats, adding a new chapter to her public and personal life. The braids scheduled Monday morning are a sign the moment is near, even if the exact day remains a mystery.
