It's auntie Boo Boo! Honey with big sister Pumpkin back in February; the teen has welcomed a new baby, she revealed on Instagram

The 17-year-old broke the news of her pregnancy in a promo clip for season two for Mama June: Not To Hot.

As she prepared to tuck into a gender reveal cupcake, the reality star admitted she was hopeful for a daughter.

'I kind of want a girl because, of course, another me,' she declared in the clip. 'Duh.'

'You know what, I really do hope I have a girl,' she continued, 'because you guys are going to be in trouble. Another little me running around: Pumpkin Jr!'

Her euphoria soon turns to fear however as the pregnant teenager realised her daughter will likely run across the less fair sex at some stage, also.

'The only things that I fear about raising a girl is that, is the fact that you know, she’s going to want to date, and that is not on my f***ing list,' she announces, wagging her finger.

'She’s at least going to have to be 45 before she goes on her first date,' she insists — an age her mother is seven years shy of with two grandchildren.

The baby's dad is her fiance of almost two years Joshua Efird, who is three years her senior.

The Here Comes Honey Boo Boo star also claimed that she wasn't going to let her child partake in the beauty pageants that ultimately brought fame to her family via her little sister.

'I don't think I'm going to let the baby do pageants, cause pageants are f***ing expensive, and I'm already going to be buying f***ing diapers,' she contemplated.

'But she is going to be pretty because' — she added, flicking her hair — 'look at me....she might be in a pageant or two,' she decided.

She also prophesied that her little sis was 'going to flip her s*** because she's the baby girl of the family, and now she's not gonna be no more.'

Pumpkin and Honey Boo Boo - real name Alana - have two more sisters; Jessica 'Chubbs', and Anna 'Chickadee'.

Anna, who has two daughters of her own, rarely speaks to her mother, after Mama June continued to date a man who allegedly molested Anna when she was eight.
