The website claims that Kim, 38, and Kanye, 41, had just one embryo left and it was a boy – who is due in May.
The famous couple are already parents to North, five, Saint, three, and 11-month-old Chicago.
Chicago was born via surrogate after Kim was advised against carrying a third child herself by doctors.
Kim suffered from toxaemia - toxins in the blood from infection - and had two "very traumatic" labours with North and Saint.
The Keeping Up With The Kardashian’s star later said: "I think it was the best decision I ever made. I think it was such an amazing experience. I would recommend it for anyone."

Kim Kardashian reveals she didn't want to name her daughter Chicago
She admitted she was relieved her fears that she wouldn't share the same bond with Chicago as she does with her older children were unfounded as she felt an "instant connection" to the tot.
She said: "It's crazy how professional surrogacy is and how instantly, when the baby came out, there was no weird feeling that I was so nervous about.
"Am I gonna connect with the baby? Am I gonna feel the same way as if it's, you know, me birthing my kids? And it was. It was the same exact feeling. So, that was instantly a relief for me cause that was what I was most nervous about and I just feel so lucky that I've had such a good experience with surrogacy.
"The moment I laid eyes on my baby, I was so in love. I am just so excited to have this addition to my family."
In September 2017 TMZ revealed that the couple's surrogate is a "married African-American college graduate with two children of her own".

She's also said to be a Democrat in "great physical shape", but the identity of Kimye's surrogate has been kept private throughout.
Last year Kim revealed she and Kanye were open to having another child.
Speaking on US show Live With Kelly and Ryan, Kim said: “I would have maybe one more [child].
“I really, really enjoyed the surrogacy process. I enjoyed carrying myself, but that wasn’t an option for me for my last child and moving forward.
“I will say, when it came to breastfeeding time, I was like, ‘OK, this is the best decision I ever made. It’s a game changer, having to not go through that every few hours, breastfeeding.
“I can spend so much more time with the older kids and getting them used to the new baby.”
