The singer is believed to be expecting her first child with husband Nick Cannon but is refusing to publically confirm the news.
In a cryptic post on her website, she wrote: "I appreciate everyone`s well wishes. But I am very superstitious. When the time is right, everyone will know - even Cindi Berger (Mariah`s publicist)."
Nick has further fuelled rumours by revealing he believes the point of getting married is to have children.
He told Access Hollywood: "The purpose of having a union and getting married is to have a family. Right now, her and I are family, but of course we would love to expand."
Despite their public silence, Nick and Mariah have reportedly been telling their friends they are "overjoyed" to be expecting a baby together.
A source said: "Nick has been telling friends how excited he is to be a dad.
"Mariah has tried so hard to get pregnant. She`s very excited. She wants to wait as close to full term as possible before going public with the news to her fans."
