| JK Rowling pregnant with third child! | | I didnt know where to post this..
Harry Potter author JK Rowling has said she is expecting her third child, due next year.
The author, 38, broke the news on her website. She already has a daughter Jessica and son David, who was born last year. Rowling said: "I always wanted three children, so I could not be happier."
The author said pregnancy would not affect the release of the new Potter book. "Let me reassure you that book six remains well on track," she said.
"Fingers crossed of course, I don't foresee any baby-related interruptions or delays.
"I still can't say for sure when it will be finished, but I have written a lot and I really like it (a reckless challenge to fate, that; I bet the next chapter goes horribly wrong now)," the author added. |

| ^Because doing anything with children,especially small ones is EXTREMLY hard. You have to watch them ALL the time, not to mention when they are like 0-4 months old all they do is cry all day. I can't even get on the computer while my son is awake or he screams the whole time, cause hes not the center of my attention. |

| She writes so slow though. Shes not even done with the sixth book , and she says she doesn't know when its coming out. I bet she is taking so long with this book because her son is so young (only a year). I seriously don't know how she writes at all, unless she has a nanny. |
