"Jersey Shore" star Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino is about to have a situation on his hands -- a baby situation, that is.

The reality star and his wife, Lauren Pesce, revealed that they are expecting their first child together in adorable Instagram posts shared Tuesday.

Both Sorrentino and Pesce shared the same photos in their social media announcements. The first was a photo of the couple in the kitchen with their dog and, on the counter, spelled out in flour reads "Baby Sorrentino May 2021." The second photo showed the message close up with the ultrasound. The third was a photo of the pair kissing in front of the setup.

"We have a Baby Situation," Sorrentino captioned the post, while Pesce wrote, "Our biggest blessing is on it’s [sic] way."

The couple, who married in 2018, also made an Instagram for their bundle of joy, @itsbabysituation, that already has more than 55,000 followers at the time of this article being published.

The exciting news comes about a year after Sorrentino and Pesce shared that they suffered a "heart-wrenching" pregnancy loss. Speaking on "Strahan, Sara & Keke" in November 2019, the mom-to-be explained that they conceived the night Sorrentino had returned from serving eight months in prison for tax evasion.

"The night he came home, we actually conceived. And then at about six-and-a-half, seven weeks, I miscarried," Pesce revealed.

"It was heart-wrenching. When I found out we were pregnant, I felt like this is why we went through all these challenges for years and that this was our time and it was our blessing," she emotionally recalled at the time. "It was hard. It was really difficult."
