A very pregnant Janet Jackson went out shopping for some baby furniture in London earlier this week.

The 50-year-old singer, who is expecting her first child with husband husband Wissam Al Mana, was seen looking around the store Back In Action in London.

Janet dressed for comfort during her outing in a pair of sweatpants and sweater with a scarf around her neck and a black headband.

She wore no makeup for her trip, but still managed to look decades younger than her age as she smiled at a photographer before getting into her car.

Entertainment Tonight reports that Janet arrived at the store in her chauffeured Mercedes on Tuesday afternoon her bodyguard, her assistant and two other members of her entourage.

Workers then shut down the shop so Janet could sit down and look over some of the store's offerings without being bothered by members of the public.

Janet left after roughly 45 minutes inside with a single bag.

The singer announced back in April that she would be postponing her world tour on doctor's orders as she and her husband were trying to start a family.

Then, in June, her brother Tito confirmed that she was expecting her first child.


All for you: Janet has not revealed the due date of her child

Janet posted a video back in April on her Instagram account in which she told fans: 'I thought it was important that you be the first to know. My husband and I are planning our family, so I’m going to have to delay the tour.

'Please, if you could try and understand that it’s important that I do this now. I have to rest up, doctor’s orders. But I have not forgotten about you. I will continue the tour as soon as I possibly can.'

It is still unknown whether she is having a boy or a girl.

But it has emerged Janet Jackson is planning to pay tribute to her dead brother Michael when she names her baby.

The 50-year-old, who has never given birth before, is expected to have her first child with her Qatari billionaire husband Wissam Al Mana in the near future.

And a source told E the baby's name will 'have something to do with Michael Jackson.'

While the most obvious tribute would be to name the child after the Prince Of Pop, who died seven years ago, if it is a boy he could be called Ben or Robin as a nod to his famous songs.

Janet Jackson is a new mom!

The pop icon, 50, welcomed her first child with husband Wissam Al Mana, on Tuesday, Jan. 3, ET can confirm.

"Janet Jackson and husband Wissam Al Mana are thrilled to welcome their new son Eissa Al Mana into the world," the singer's rep said in a statement. "Janet had a stress-free healthy delivery and is resting comfortably."

ET broke the news of Jackson's pregnancy back in May, just two weeks shy of her birthday. The news came amid a major tour for Jackson, which she was forced to postpone.

As Janet Jackson and her husband Wissam Al Mana settle into parenthood after welcoming a healthy baby boy named Eissa on Tuesday, Jan. 3, multiple outlets are speculating on the meaning of their son's name.

E! News reports some have theorized Eissa means Jesus in Arabic, a nice balance for a child whose mom was raised as a Jehovah's Witness and whose father is a Quatari Muslim.

Bustle dug a little deeper, citing BabyNamesPedia as its source for discovering that Eissa translates to "Yaweh," a Hebrew word for God, "is salvation."

Eisa is generally the spelling of the name when used for girls, the website reports, while Eissa is the preferred boy's version.

Meanwhile, congratulations have been pouring in online from Janet's family.

"How exciting!" LaToya Jackson tweeted. "Jan and Wissam just gave birth to a beautiful baby boy!!! Congratulations!!!"

The new mom's nephew TJ Jackson tweeted, "Congrats Auntie @JanetJackson!!! So so happy for you & Wissam," adding, "Enjoy every minute with your greatest hit, Elissa. #parenthoodisthebest."

Her brother Jermaine Jackson's partner -- who is pregnant with her first child -- chimed in, "Congratulations to Auntie Janet and her husband Wissam Al Mana and their new born son Eissa. Can't wait to meet him."
Janet announced she and her husband were planning to start a family last April, when she canceled the end of her "Unbreakable" tour.

A few months later, concern arose around the health of the notoriously private star. It was widely reported she had been ordered to go on bed rest for the remainder of her pregnancy by September, possibly because of her advanced age for becoming a first-time mom.

"She is doing OK and resting until she is due for her baby," a source told E! News, noting there had been some complications with the pregnancy.

According to her rep, however, everything ultimately went fine with Janet's delivery.

"Janet had a stress free healthy delivery and is resting comfortably," her rep told E! News.

Janet married Wassim in 2012, though the couple did not tell press about the event until long after it was over.

"The rumors regarding an extravagant wedding are simply not true. Last year we were married in a quiet, private, and beautiful ceremony," they announced in 2013. "Our wedding gifts to one another were contributions to our respective favorite children's charities. We would appreciate that our privacy is respected and that we are allowed this time for celebration and joy."
