The new year was filled with joy for the reality TV star and rapper as they revealed that Kim is pregnant with the couple's first child, and now they can't wait to find out the sex of their baby.

Once they are able to, the couple will discover whether they are having a boy or a girl.

Kim - who is around 12 weeks pregnant - said: "Of course I do want to know. I can't find out yet, but I do want to know. No preference, I just want a healthy baby."

The 32-year-old beauty admits that she has been lucky with her pregnancy so far because she hasn't suffered from morning sickness, and her health has been good.

She told Us Weekly magazine: "I have felt good. I haven't had any morning sickness, but it still isn't the easiest. People always say it's easy and fun. It's definitely an adjustment learning about your body and stuff like that. I've been feeling really good so that's good."

The socialite admitted that she is amazed at how her sister Kourtney - who has children Mason, three, and six-month-old Penelope, with long-term partner Scott Disick - seemed to breeze through her pregnancies.

Kim said: "Even my sister has made it look so easy and it's not as easy as people think. It's a little painful, there's a lot of growing pains. But I've heard it's all worth it so I'm looking forward to that."

Kanye - who has been dating Kim for eight months - shared the couple's happy news during a performance at Revedl in Atlantic City, New Jersey on December 30, telling the audience "stop the music and make noise for my baby mama".
