Alicia Keys is due to give birth on New Year's Eve (31.12.14).
The 'Girl On Fire' hitmaker - who is expecting her second child with husband Swizz Beatz - has revealed they are set to become parents again at the end of the year.
Speaking on 'The View' last night (29.09.14), she said: "It's looking like December, they tell me December 31. I think that's kinda cute."
The singer - who has three-year-old son Egypt with her husband - also discussed her new single 'Here We Are' and the movement she is leading to create a peaceful world for her children, and admitted being a mother has influenced her passion for change.
She added: "Definitely being a mother has definitely given me more of a fierceness and an understand about just what I believe in that much more."
Alicia is keen to help make the world a better place to ensure her children have a great life in the future.
She explained: "I think no matter who you are and what we might disagree on, or whatever we might think differently about - one thing we can all agree about is that we want a peaceful world for our children."

Nick Grimshaw set a twerking world record this morning (30.09.14) - only to have it cruelly taken away from him by a fellow Radio 1 presenter minutes later.
The 30-year-old star broke the Guinness World Record for the longest duration of twerking after putting his tush to the test for an hour, but shortly after it was confirmed live on air that he had set a new record it was revealed his pal Greg James had carried on twerking to set an even newer record.
Following the realisation that Nick's minutes-old record had been beaten on his Radio 1 breakfast show, he admitted he had simply assumed Greg was only twerking alongside him to show his support.
He quipped: "People think it's a joke but it's really horrible. I've been having twerking lessons for this.
"I thought that's so nice that he's supporting me. You know this is my dream, Greg? It's my lifelong dream. "
A smug Greg replied: "I know, that's why revenge is sweet."
Nick also took to his Twitter account to reveal his disappointment at losing out to Greg just minutes after setting the record.
He wrote: "YAY I'M A WORLD RECORD HOLDER!!!! Oh no....wait....damn @gregjames and his ass. (sic)"
The twerking attempt was very much official as a Guinness World Records adjudicator in the studio confirmed Nick had set a new record.
A post on the organisation's official Twitter account even congratulated Nick on his achievement and posted pictures of him with his certificate.
The message read: "A new Guinness World Records title - longest duration twerking for @grimmers on @R1Breakfast! #GrimmyTwerks (sic)"
But shortly afterwards another post on the account revealed Greg had set a new record.
It wrote: "A surprise twerk-off this morning on @BBCR1 as @gregjames breaks @grimmers record minutes after it was set (sic)"

Oscar Issac has criticised the modern tweaks George Lucas made to the original 'Star Wars' films.
The 35-year-old actor, who appears as a still-to-be-named character in the eagerly-awaited 'Star Wars: Episode VII', explained he prefers an "old-school" approach to film-making as opposed to the adjustments made by Lucas, 70.
He told the Huffington Post: "I'm most excited and, I know this seems nerdy, but I love the fact that [director] JJ Abrams is shooting it on film. And that's not just from an aesthetic standpoint but it's about how a movie is filmed. It changes so many things.
"I mean, I've had to do things over again because there was a hair in the gate, which is so old school. But it just feels better, and movies are all about feeling, so I think that's something that I'm so very excited about."
Isaac, who is best known for his lead role in 'Inside Llewyn Davis' in 2013, said as the creator of 'Star Wars', Lucas retained the right to make whatever changes he wishes.
He added: "There's a part of me that appreciates that he doesn't really care if people are upset about it. He decided to share it and he wants to go back and do stuff, whatever.
"But as a fan, I'd much rather go back and watch the old thing, because it's a product of the time. It's 'what did you do at the time with the things that you had?'."
'Star Wars Episode VII' is set to hit cinema screens on December 18, 2015.

The synopsis for 'Magic Mike XXL' has been released.
The sequel to the 2012 comedy drama will continue the story three years later, following Mike's (Channing Tatum) decision to walk away from his stripping career.
Greg Silverman, president of creative development and worldwide production at Warner Bros, said: "'Magic Mike' was a tremendous crowd-pleaser, scoring with critics and audiences across the board.
"We look forward to continuing the magic with so many of the talented individuals who made that film such a success - both in front of and behind the camera."
The film will see the other Kings of Tampa follow in Mike's footsteps, but vow to have a huge show to celebrate their decision to step out of the spotlight.
Not only do they want to impress their legions of fans for one last time, they are determined to get their legendary headliner Magic Mike to return to the stage for a final performance.
In an official synopsis released by Warner Bros, they tease: "On the road to their final show, with whistle stops in Jacksonville and Savannah to renew old acquaintances and make new friends, Mike and the guys learn some new moves and shake off the past in surprising ways."
Channing Tatum, Matt Bomer, Joe Manganiello, Kevin Nash, Adam Rodriguez and Gabriel Iglesias will all return to the movie, which will also feature newcomers Jada Pinkett Smith and Michael Strahan.
'Magic Mike XXL' will be released in the UK on August 7, 2015.

Angelina Jolie has given Brad Pitt a rare £2 million watch as a wedding present.
The 'Maleficent' actress has splashed out on the expensive gift - a 1952 Patek Philippe platinum chronometer - which has been inscribed with the words "To Roly from Nessa", a reference to the characters the couple play in 'By The Sea'.
The two stars - who tied the knot last month - are currently filming the new movie in Malta and George Farrugia, 57, who runs Dolindo Jewellers on the neighbouring island of Gozo has opened up about the "rare" and "valuable" present.
He told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "I did inscribe the watch, it was for Brad and it was a rare one.
"Oh yes, it was very valuable. I wasn't nervous about the inscription because I knew I could do the work perfectly."
Meanwhile, Brad has admitted he is "slowing down" his film career so he can spend more time with his wife and their children - Maddox, 13, Pax, 10, Zahara, nine, Shiloh, eight, and six-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox with Angelina - "before they're grown up".
He recently said: "I've been slowing down for a while now. And slowly transitioning to other things.
"And, truthfully, I do want to spend more time with my kids before they're grown up and gone."

Phil Collins used to drink wine at 11am and struggled to get out of bed in the morning.
The 63-year-old musician - who has a personal fortune estimated to be worth £120 million and has won seven Grammy awards - insists three failed marriages and the absence of his five children led to a period of heavy drinking and soul searching.
He told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "The retirement process started in 2004 when [son] Matthew was born.
"I thought I'm going to do this the right way - I don't need another gold record, or any gratuity or gratification; I want to stop [making music] and bring my kids up. And then stuff happens you can't control. You get a divorce so I'm not living with my kids."
It was at this stage the 'In the Air Tonight' hitmaker split from his third wife, Orianne, and he started drinking heavily.
He said: "I'm getting up and watching cricket, turning on the television at 11am and having a bottle of wine.
"I was never an alcoholic; I just got to be doing that most days.
"But you have to have a reason to get up and my manager keeps saying, 'You have to do something.' But right now I don't really feel the urge to record.
"My doctor said, 'I can stop you drinking but I can't give you a reason to get up in the morning.' I stopped drinking 18 months ago, but they're still trying to find me that reason."

Katie Price has confirmed she will renew her wedding vows this year.
The 36-year-old star admitted seeing her pal Kerry Katona tie the knot to her beau George Kay has inspired her to reaffirm her love for cheating husband Kieran Hayler.
She told OK! magazine: "It did make me want to do it all again. I love a good old wedding. I haven't even thought about what we're going to do, but we are going to do it this year."
Rumours emerged earlier this month suggesting Katie had fallen out with the Atomic Kitten singer during her wedding because she pulled out of being a bridesmaid at the last minute, but the businesswoman has now insisted the friends didn't argue and it was something they had discussed.
She explained: "[Kerry] did ask me to be her bridesmaid and I said yes, but obviously Bunny came early. I explained to Kerry that I'd just had a baby and a Caesarean and I couldn't try on the dress.
"Because my body was changing, what could I do? Unfortunately with my figure I can only wear dresses that are made-to-measure - unless it's Lycra!"
Katie and Kieran hit the headlines earlier this year when it was revealed the part-time stripper had slept with the model's best friend Jane Pountney and another woman, but Katie has since vowed to stay with her lover - who she has two-month-old child, Bunny, and 13-month-old son Jett with.
The mother-of-five faced criticism earlier this month when she announced the odd choice of name for the couple's newborn, but she takes no notice of what anyone else thinks.
She said: "Whatever I do in life, there's always a comment. I like it, so I don't really care what anyone else thinks."

George Clooney feels "pretty damn great" after marrying Amal Alamuddin.
The 53-year-old star gushed he is "looking forward to everything" in his life after tying the knot to the 36-year-old lawyer in Venice, Italy, on Saturday (27.09.14) at the historic Aman Canal Grande hotel, where the pair shared a lengthy kiss after exchanging traditional vows.
Speaking to PEOPLE magazine in the US, in conjunction with HELLO! magazine in the UK, he said: "Marriage feels pretty damn great. We're looking forward to everything."
The couple exchanged platinum rings as they wed in front of around 100 guests, including Hollywood actor Matt Damon and U2 frontman Bono, during the 30-minute ceremony.
Amal's mother Baria praised George's "wit" and "generosity" and described him as "perfect" in a speech at the event.
She explained: "I said, 'George, we love you truly, deeply and sincerely. We enjoy your charm, your wit, intelligent conversation and generosity. You are simply perfect.'
"George and Amal radiated love all night. The wedding was so unbelievably special, it was legendary.
"These three days - the friends, the families, the atmosphere, everything - will stay with me all the rest of my life."
George's father Nick Clooney, who attended the wedding with wife Nina, also made a speech during the ceremony, during which he heaped praise on the couple.
He said: "George and Amal present us with ... belief that in this place and at this moment, love is alive and well."
Amal looked amazing in a custom Oscar de la Renta French lace wedding dress, while George wore a black Giorgio Armani suit and the designer admitted it was a "privilege" to dress his good friend on his wedding day.
He said: "It is a privilege and a pleasure for me to dress him for this occasion, in which he stars in the most important role: that of the groom.
"[Giorgio is] the class act of all class acts. He's been a good friend for many years and the night wouldn't be complete without him."
The couple enlisted Nora Sagal, the daughter of friends, to sing Cole Porter's 'Why Shouldn't I?' for their first dance, and she also performed Irving Berlin's song 'Always' at the event.
George and Amal also underwent a civil ceremony at Palazzo Ca'Loredan, an official council building in the city, yesterday (29.09.14) to legally marry in accordance with Italian laws.
The ceremony was officiated by the 'Monuments Men' star's friend, former Rome Mayor Walter Viltroni, who also presided over the wedding on Saturday.
The couple's weekend-long celebrations began on Friday (26.09.14) with bachelor and bachelorette parties, before their wedding a day later.

Katie Price is starring in a new reality TV show.
The former glamour model - who has previously appeared in eleven real-life series including Channel 4 shows 'Jordan: The Truth About Me' in 2002 and later in the 'Katie and Peter' ITV2 franchise - is set to open up her doors to the cameras for the thirteenth time following the birth of her fifth child, Bunny, with hubby Kieran Hayler.
It is thought the show will follow Katie, 36, as she tries to repair her relationship with the personal trainer after recently threatening to divorce him when she discovered he had cheated on her with her good friends Jane Pountney and Chrissy Thomas.
A source told Mirror.co.uk: "Katie's new show will document them working through their problems.
"She's made no secret of her mistrust of Kieran - his infidelity completely rocked her."
Katie - who also has Jett, 13 months, with Kieran, as well as her 12-year-old son Harvey from her previous relationship with Dwight Yorke and nine-year-old son Junior and seven-year-old daughter Princess Tiaamii from her failed marriage to Peter Andre - is aware the tumultuous relationship will "make great telly" and is set to start filming the series soon.
The source explained: "As they have two children together, she's determined to make the best of things - and the businesswoman in her knows that will make great telly.
"She already had plans for a new TV show back in January, but after all her marriage dramas had settled, she started talking to producers who sent out a 'sizzle' [a video pitch] to commissioners at a few big channels with tons of interest.
"Filming is due to start soon."

Emily Rose turned down the chance to cast her son in 'Haven'.
The 33-year-old actress plays lead character Audrey Parker in the US supernatural series but rejected an approach from the producers to have her 17-month-old son Miles appear in the programme because she would've found it too hard seeing her little one in tears during filming.
When asked if her child is going to make an appearance in the show, she exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "They asked me. I don't know if you remember the finale was about a baby crying and people dying.
"They asked me briefly if I wanted it to be my own, and I was like, 'No, I don't think so. I don't want to sit there and watch you have make my baby cry and me not be able to comfort him. It's going to be a bad combination.'
"We all quickly said no and went against that idea."
While the star has denied her little one the chance to kick-start an acting career, Emily admits Miles might still forge a career in the industry but at the moment he is obsessed with American football.
She added: "We will have to see right now he's really into football, he's really into the football season anytime it's on he goes, football.
"We are Seahawks fans through and through, I'm from Seattle."
Emily can be seen in 'Haven' Season 5 on Tuesdays at 9pm on Syfy and 'Graceland' Season 2 on Mondays at 12am on Universal Channel.

Coronation Street's Kylie Platt's marriage is heading for trouble.
Paula Lane - who plays Kylie in the ITV soap - has warned the arrival of Callum Logan, Kylie's ex-boyfriend and the father of her son Max, will cause a rift between Kylie and her husband David Platt, played by Jack P. Shepherd.
The 28-year-old actress told Radio Times magazine: "Callum has charm and it makes Kylie feel excited, so I guess there is a little bit of desire there.
"At one time, they were the king and queen of their estate. They ruled the roost and she gets a kick out of being with him again."
Kylie goes back to her old neighbourhood in search of her drug-dealing ex-boyfriend - played by Sean Ward - in an attempt to get to the bottom of Max's ADHD diagnosis but finds herself slipping back into her old ways of drink and drug abuse.
Paula explained: "Kylie hasn't got ADHD herself and she's wondering if Max could have genetically inherited anything from Callum.
"She's risking everything. It's a downward spiral for Kylie. She's been there before so it will be easy for her to be dragged back into it."
However, the actress revealed that whilst the meeting of the characters starts off as hostile, it soon turns "electric" and she, herself, is excited for the soap's fans to see how the story unfolds.
Paula said: "[Callum] probably came to push the pram a bit before the novelty wore off. So it must have been eight years since [Kylie's] laid eyes on him.
"Initially, it is very hostile between her and Callum, but it's electric. I can't wait for you all to see his first episode because I was shocked myself."
