Céline Dion on Another Pregnancy: 'If It Happens, It Happens'

KCSPresse/Splash News Online

For Céline Dion, the future is bright — no matter what size her family turns out to be. In a new interview with Access Hollywood, the 41-year-old songstress says that she and husband René Angélil “hope for the best” in their next round of in-vitro fertilization, while remaining thankful for all they already have.

“I feel strong and honestly, we’re very blessed,” Céline points out. “We have a wonderful child, we’re extremely happy.”

“It’s not like, ‘Oh my god, she’s not pregnant and she’s depressed.’ You know how it works. We are great…we hope to get pregnant. If it happens, it happens.”

When news broke in August that Céline was expecting a little sibling for son René-Charles, 8 ½, she says that the pregnancy had barely even begun. “It was positive…for about four or five days,” she explains, but a blood test soon revealed that her hCG levels were on the decline.

Noting that she is far from alone in her struggle to conceive, Céline points out that “people…go through this all the time and most of the time would not even know that they were pregnant for three or four days, because it was just delayed a little bit.”

“But maybe they were [pregnant] and they would never find out. Because of the treatments I have, I have blood tests a lot and so we found out I was [pregnant] and then it didn’t stay and that is why we are trying again.”

The couple are “all set” to take the plunge again. “We are going back to the same people, the same doctor in New York and it’s a big process,” she says. “I’m sure people that go through in-vitro know how much it takes and demands, but I’m good.”

Lisa Leslie Expecting Second Child – A Boy!

Tally up the score: Lisa Leslie is pregnant again.

The retired pro basketball star and husband Michael Lockwood are expecting their second child — a boy — in May, she tells PEOPLE exclusively.

“We are excited,” says Leslie, 37, who found out she was pregnant in September during her last month as a player with the Los Angeles Sparks.

“When we found out he was a boy, Michael shouted, “Yes, thank you Jesus!” jokes the former forward, who received the news the day before Thanksgiving.

The couple plan to name their son Michael Joseph Lockwood, Jr., but will call him by the nickname M.J.

With the same initials as basketball legend Michael Jordan, Lisa suspects basketball could be in her son’s future.

“I imagine M.J. won’t be shorter than 6’6″,” says the 6’5″ three-time WNBA MVP and four-time Olympic gold medalist. Husband Michael, a pilot for UPS and a former Air Force Academy basketball player, is 6’7″.

“I’m feeling really good,” adds Lisa, who retired from the Sparks in October and is currently working in broadcasting and promoting a line of CieAura health products.

She and Michael, 44, married in 2005 and have a 2 ½-year-old daughter together, Lauren Jolie. Michael is also dad to two girls from his previous marriage — Mikaela, 15, is a high school junior, while Gabrielle, 18, is a freshman at Baylor.

The toddler – herself a tennis and swimming enthusiast — is looking forward to having a baby brother. “She’s thrilled; she says it’s her baby and I’m just carrying him,” laughs Lisa.

The former basketball star’s second pregnancy is different from her first in another respect — she’s showing much sooner. “As soon as I stopped playing, my belly popped right out,” she explains. “I wore a two-piece bathing suit with my first pregnancy after three months – but no way now!”
