Paula Patton Places Her Bets On a Baby Boy

Jordan Strauss/FilmMagic

In her first public acknowledgment since her mother-in-law broke the news that the actress and her husband Robin Thicke are expecting their first child, Paula Patton revealed her bets are on a baby boy.

Appearing on 106 & Park to promote their new film, Precious, costar Gabourey Sidibe joked that she has taken to calling baby-on-the-way “Paulette,” while the mama-to-be admits she would prefer to welcome a “Robette” come late spring.

Currently three months along, Paula says her pregnancy experience has been smooth sailing thus far.

“It feels good. A little less energy, but generally I’m feeling good.”

Precious is now in theaters. Paula and Robin tied the knot in June 2005.

When I was pregnant with twins, everyone thought I was having a boy and a girl. I was one of the few that thought it would be two boys the whole time. And my instincts were correct!
