“So I got a pregnancy test … and uhhhhh well … I am having a baby,” she continued.

the post, Spears then claimed that she may be expecting twins, with the pop star, who shares sons Sean, 16, and Jayden, 15, with ex Kevin Federline, adding that she “got a little more food pregnant”.

“It’s growing!!! If two are in there … I might just loose [sic] it,” Spears wrote.

She also said she will not be going out in public much, as she doesn’t want the paparrazzi to get their “money shot” of her pregnancy.
