Mummy Pig, as it turns out, will be welcoming another baby girl into the world very soon.
Peppa Pig's mother first broke the news of her pregnancy in late February, sharing the "joyous baby news" in a podcast interview with Kylie Kelce, host of "Not Gonna Lie," on Feb. 27. Peppa and her little brother George also made a cameo on Kelce's show.
"Mummy's on a call, you two. Sorry, where was I? Oh yes, the announcement," Mummy Pig said. "Well, I'm thrilled to say I'm pregnant. Baby #3 is due in the summer."
Mummy Pig's gender reveal, not discussed on the show, was featured on an episode of "Peppa Pig Tales" released Friday by Walmart.
Peppa and George, who weren't sure about whether they wanted a little brother or a little sister, found out their sibling's gender by catching a balloon that held the answer. Audiences will get to see Peppa (and George) step into a bigger role with her new little sibling arriving in Season 11 later this year.
"As a big sister, Peppa Pig's relationship with little brother George has provided sweet moments throughout the years, as well as many important lessons about confidence and how to be a good sibling," Hasbro said in a news release. "As the new family dynamic develops, Peppa will have many opportunities to show George the ropes alongside viewers who may be adapting to changes and 'big feelings' in their own families."
New Peppa Pig toys tied to 'growing family'
Hasbro is celebrating Mummy Pig's "growing family" with a new collection of toys and accessories available for purchase exclusively in-store at Walmart and Walmart.com from May 30 through July 31.
A few toys, including Oinks & Snuggles interactive baby doll, Peppa's Dress Up Wardrobe and Peppa's Family Five Pack figure set, will be available to pre-order on April 25. Peppa Pig: Greatest Hits on CD, another Walmart exclusive, is also available for purchase.
New products featuring the new baby will be available at most major retailers by Aug. 1.
Mummy Pig talks pregnancy, big feelings
Kelce, also pregnant with her fourth daughter at the time, extended her congratulations and asked how Mummy Pig's other children, Peppa and George, were handling the news.
"In my experience, kids can have lots of different reactions to news like this," Kelce said.
Mummy Pig revealed that Peppa and George were taking "everything in their stride," telling Kelce that Peppa refers to her as an "even bigger mummy" and herself as an "even bigger sister."
Though Mummy Pig and her husband, Daddy Pig, experienced a "few big feelings" from both Peppa and George, they do have conversations and reassure them often. Mummy Pig was also feeling all the feels, telling Kelce she was excited, nervous, often a bit nauseous and couldn't go five minutes without needing to go to the restroom.
"It's an exciting change, but it is a big one," Mummy Pig said.
"The announcement of Mummy Pig's pregnancy aligns perfectly with the Kelce family's own joyful anticipation of a new arrival, making it a truly magical moment of parallel beginnings," the news release stated.
Kelce welcomed her own bundle of joy, daughter Finnley, on March 30.

Olympic rugby star Ilona Maher thinks we've ‘lost the plot' with this health trend: ‘Don't lie to yourself'
Hold the cottage cheese. Pro rugby player Ilona Maher — whose team won the bronze medal in the Paris Olympics — spends plenty of time training to dominate on the pitch. But there's one fitness-focused diet trend that she thinks is a bit over-the-top — and she points to herself as evidence that it's unnecessary. 3 Pro rugby player Ilona Maher thinks the obession with protein has gone a bit off the rails. AP A former athlete herself, Kylie Kelce complained about how 'everything is trying to be high protein' on a June episode of her podcast, Not Gonna Lie, arguing that not everything needs added protein powder. Maher was on the same page, and she's no fan of a low-carb lifestyle either. 'I have a high-protein diet, but I also have probably the highest-carb diet ever,' the 29-year-old Bristol Bears player said. 'I was raised on very high-carb diets. And carbs are really the energy that you need — that's science, truly.' That isn't to say she doesn't eat protein too. 'I get protein in for most meals, but I'm actually not as committed to the bit as I maybe could be. I think I could be leaner … if I was really focusing on protein. But I just don't see — I think I'm fine,' she added. A big issue for both women is the trend of swapping 'real' food for protein-heavy substitutes. In recent years, for example, cottage cheese recipes have blown up on social media, with people using it in place of cream cheese, sour cream, ricotta and even mayo and butter. It's low in fat and high in protein, a combo that can keep you full, increase metabolism and preserve muscle mass. Plus, the curdling process creates bacteria that are good for your gut. 3 Maher, whose team won the bronze medal in the Paris Olympics, eats protein most meals — but she's not swapping 'real food' for protein-ified recipes. Getty Images But Kelce said her concern is people blending up cottage cheese and pretending it tastes like ice cream. 'Don't lie to yourself,' Maher added in agreement. 'I saw a recent one, it was like protein tiramisu. She dips the rice cake in espresso and then she puts Greek yogurt on there. I was like, that's not even f—-ing close!' 'I think we really lost the plot on that,' she said. Though she is working to eat more protein at the urging of her dietitian, for her that means more 'real food.' 'So after training I'll have a quick protein shake — that's very easy, quick protein. But if I can, I'm gonna have the eggs. I love like beef jerky,' she said. 3 'I saw a recent one, it was like protein tiramisu. She dips the rice cake in espresso and then she puts Greek yogurt on there. I was like, that's not even f—-ing close!' she said. Getty Images 'I just think, I mean maybe I'm wrong in science, but I don't know if we need that much. Because I'm doing fine and I just had a bagel this morning.' She's not the first star to take issue with the high-protein craze. This month, Bethenny Frankel also called out the fad. 'The obsession with protein is an out-of-control fad that everyday people are fixated on as if they're training for the Olympics,' she told The Post. 'They can also be calorie-dense. It's another marketing gimmick like keto or carnivore or low carb or all the absurd fads I've witnessed over the years. Balance is key.' In fact, studies show that there is such a thing as eating too much protein — and it can make you gain weight and clog your arteries. 'Consuming excessive protein, particularly from animal sources, raises insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) levels,' Dr. Joseph Antoun, CEO of the longevity company L-Nutra, previously told The Post. Primarily produced in the liver, IGF-1 is a hormone, that plays a crucial role in promoting growth and regulating metabolism. 'While it's essential in childhood and for muscle repair,' Antoun said, 'chronically elevated IGF-1 in adults has been linked to accelerated biological aging and therefore an increased risk of age-related conditions, notably cancer.'

19 Millennials Are Sharing Things That Were Common In The '90s And 2000s That Would "Baffle" Anyone Under The Age Of 25
As time passes and technology evolves, there are certain trends and habits that simply fade out of popularity. And there's no better example than those of the '90s and early 2000s... That's why when Redditor u/ToeKnown9863 asked, "What's a '90s/2000s trend that would baffle kids today?" Thousands of Gen X'ers and millennials shared the good, the bad, and the ugly of Y2K trends. From burning CDs to Pogs — here are 19 of their best responses: If you can think of Y2K trends that would leave the younger generations speechless, feel free to tell us about them using this anonymous form! 1."Downloading music off Limewire to iTunes, running to Walmart while it downloads, buying blank CDs, and burning them once it's downloaded. Then, thinking of a cool name for your new CD." "I spent three days downloading the movie 300 while it was still in theaters. Burned it to a DVD, made some Jiffy Pop, and bought a Code Red Mountain Dew. I popped in my freshly burned DVD that Friday night and thought how awesome it was that I was going to watch a movie that was still playing at the theater down the street. Then the movie started, and I remembered thinking that it looked cheap for a Hollywood movie. Suddenly, a naked guy walked onto the screen, followed by three others...I then realized I had spent three days downloading a dirty movie." —u/Daguvry Related: 2."Playing literally one video game for the entire summer, no online walkthroughs. If you wanted a hint, you needed to buy a paper guidebook, hope your friend knew the tricks, or call a 900 number for help." "My mom had to block 900 numbers because I racked up a huge bill trying to beat a King's Quest game." —u/violent_potatoes 3."Trapper keepers confuse me now, yet I literally screamed to high heaven to get my mom to buy me the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles one." "For those who are unaware: a Trapper Keeper is a binder. Yes, we '90s kids were judging coolness by the kind of binder we had." —u/WitheredRosePetals82 4."Not just having a landline, but SHARING a landline." "Everyone in the house had the same number. If you called, anyone in the house might pick up. If you were calling your crush, you had to be prepared to negotiate with suspicious/hostile family members, but that was somewhat understandable. It got really weird when you had adult roommates! Suddenly, you're the social secretary for your popular, ladies' man roommate, trying to explain that you don't know where your other roommate is to a very angry woman, and ducking calls from a collection agency. And you'd have to collaborate on the voicemail message. Yes, there was only one voicemail/answering machine for the entire household, too. We used to record elaborate and hilarious messages every two weeks, sometimes with running jokes. It was a wild time that I actually don't miss." —u/haysoos2 5."Pogs: We just collected little cardboard circles to play a dumb, boring game." —u/LouBarlowsDisease "Yeah, it was hot for about a year, then it was GONE as if it never existed. People weren't even talking about Pogs anymore. I think my dad might still have my old slammers in storage somewhere." —u/nmezib 6."Buying ringtones." —u/overfiend1976 "And ringbacks! I didn't know how they were popular, but in the early aughts, my girlfriend paid for a service that would play a heavily compressed MP3 to the person calling you, instead of the regular dialing sound prior to answering the phone." —u/markh100 Related: 7."There was no 'Google Maps.' You had a huge book sitting in your glove box. If you didn't know the way, you had to literally chart it and try to follow it. Or just memorize the whole thing." —u/MightBeTrollingMaybe "I used to help my grandpa navigate his RV when I'd spend summers with my grandparents as a kid. Pulling out the atlas because he wasn't sure where to go was always a blast. I think that those experiences and video games are why my spatial awareness and direction finding are as good as they are. Now, when I look up a new place on Google Maps, I'll street view the final bit just to know what to look for. I've had people act like my ability to know where I'm going is witchcraft." —u/Silbyrn_ 8."Chain emails: I'd be so embarrassed to do that today..." "I used to fill out these long 'About Me' Q&As because I thought people were interested in reading my 50 answers." —u/Advanced-Koala2559 9."Having to wait a week for 10 photos to be processed and printed." "When we would get them back, they were mostly unidentifiable, but we were just excited to have one 'good' picture that was only slightly blurry." —u/Lia_Delphine 10."If you missed a new episode of a TV show, you just missed it." "Your only chance to see it again was when it became a rerun the next season. There was always a showtime that showed old episodes, where new ones aired during the season. The Simpsons aired new episodes on Sundays and had many airtimes during the week, showing old episodes, so you waited until the episode you missed was added to the rotation. This changed in the 2000s when entire seasons were released on DVD box sets. Then you could watch without having to wait for it in the rotation." —u/Embarrassed_Bath5148 Related: 11."Dialing *69 so you could figure out the phone number that just called you. No, we didn't all have Caller ID, and yes, it cost money." "And yes, they used 69." —u/EmperorSexy 12."Having to run to the bathroom/kitchen/do chores during a commercial break and having a sibling yell, 'It's back on,' so you could return to the TV in time." "Additionally, knowing what time shows were premiering, so you knew to do your chores before then, so you could watch undisturbed." —u/ConsistentCollar2694 13."Waiting for songs to come on the radio so you could record them on a cassette tape, and getting mad if the DJ talked over the intro. Kids today will never know the struggle of timing it perfectly and still ending up with the DJ's voice at the beginning." —u/RudeResearcher4761 "I still have one or two songs in my entire playlist that I transferred over from physical media that have radio hosts speaking over the beginning and end, and I can't bring myself to ever find the proper non-radio versions. They are just a part of the song now, and it will sound weird without them." —u/Onigumo-Shishio 14."The simple act of being bored while waiting in a doctor's office, traveling, or attending family parties, etc." "There was no nightmare rectangle keeping us preoccupied." —u/ShedMontgomery 15."When swing music and dancing went from nonexistent to full-blown movement from 1996–1998. That trend was gone in a flash." —u/Coffee-N-Kettlebells "Zoot-suit riot baby! It was a very unique three years in music. Best of all worlds, even our movie soundtracks were amazing." —u/Intrepid_Kiwi_7995 16."Buying a magazine to know what will be on TV this week." —u/Parallel-Unicorn "On that same note: Everyone tuning in and watching a show or movie at the same time, besides a live sports broadcast, you don't see anything like that nowadays because of streaming. I remember when a popular TV show's new season premiered, and everyone would be watching the exact same thing the night it aired, or when a new Disney Channel movie aired, everyone at school would be watching it that night." —u/kakapoopoopeepeeshir Related: 17."Riding to a friend's house to see if they could hang out: If they couldn't, you were just like, 'Okay, I'll start my 2-mile bike ride back home to find something else to do.'" —u/ColdIndependence5820 "I lived in the Midwest for a few years in high school, in a little town a few miles from one of those rail-to-trail bike trails. In the summer, a bunch of us would ride something like 15 miles each an ice cream cone. But at least it was something to do." —u/absolutenobody 18."When TLC was actually 'The Learning Channel.' It was like a no-frills version of the Discovery Channel, except it came standard on cable. You had to pay extra for Discovery." "But you were still able to learn about Egyptian pharaohs, cave murals, origins of the human species, aliens, and other cool stuff. Then it caught the reality TV virus." —u/vsysio 19."Living in the moment: Because there were no smartphones, no one cared about documenting every moment of their lives for likes and views. And if we did, we used a digital or disposable camera." "Not only was it freeing, but none of the dumb things we did were preserved online…unless we spent hours uploading them onto Facebook." —u/Dry-Subject-718 Did you remember any of these trends/habits?
