It’s been two years since Beyoncé literally broke the internet when she announced that she had given birth to twins on Instagram.

Since then, fans have been curious as to when Beyoncé and Jay-Z plan on having more kids.

After getting a little insight into her difficult pregnancy with her twins during her Netflix special Homecoming, Beyoncé could hold off on having more children for a while.

Her body went through a lot during the last pregnancy

Over the years, Beyoncé has been open about wanting more kids and in 2017, her dream came true.

In her new Netflix documentary Homecoming, the singer recalled being set to perform during Coachella 2017 but got the news that she was pregnant with her twins, Sir and Rumi.

“I was supposed to do Coachella the year prior for work, but I got pregnant unexpectedly. And it ended up being twins, which was even more of a surprise,” she said.

Beyoncé then went into explaining how difficult the pregnancy was on her body.

“My body went through more than I knew it could. I was 218 pounds the day I gave birth. I had an extremely difficult pregnancy.”

She continued, “I had high blood pressure. I developed toxemia, preeclampsia, and in the womb, one of my baby’s heartbeat paused a few times. So, I had to get an emergency C-section.”

A few months after giving birth, Beyoncé returned to work and started preparing for her incredible Coachella performance.

She still wants another child

Though she endured a lot over the course of a few months, sources have revealed that Beyoncé would still like to have another baby before she’s 40.

Since the Queen Bey is currently hard at work making two more Netflix specials and possibly working on new music, the singer is most likely putting off baby making for the time being.

We’re pretty sure Jay-Z wouldn’t have a problem being a dad of four and having another little baby to shower with love.

In July 2013, Jay-Z shared with Hot 97’s Angie Martinez that he would like to have “a little basketball team,” in the future.

By the sounds of that, we can assume the rapper is open to having another baby in the next few years.

Beyoncé even revealed that there have been moments when she envisioned having four kids.

“When I was younger, there were moments where I said, ‘I’m not going to have children’…And then moments when I wanted four. And now I definitely want another, but I don’t know when,” she shared with Vogue for its February 2013 issue.

Now that they are the proud parent of three adorable children, there is no telling how Beyoncé and Jay-Z feel towards having more.

Beyoncé just starting feeling like herself again and is primarily focused on her career, being a wife, and a hands-on mother.

She still 3 1/2 more years before she’s 40 so there is still a good possibility we’ll get to meet another Carter baby in the near future.
