Pregnant Snooki Reveals Gender of Baby And Possible Names, Dishes On Sex Life With Jionni LaValle

Everyone said I was going to have a boy, and they were right!, Snooki, real name Nicole Polizzi, says in the latest issue of In Touch.

News that Snooki will be having a boy comes as TMZ reports Polizzi won't be staying in the Jersey Shore house with the rest of her castmates in the upcoming season of MTV's hit show. Snooki cited her pregnancy as the reason for moving into more private digs.

[T]he mama-to-be is taking her pregnancy very seriously, choosing to live NEAR the Shore house rather than IN it because it's not worth it to be surrounded by boozy, loud roommates while pregnant, a source told TMZ.

Naming the bundle of joy will not be a heated debate in the Jionni-Snooki household. It turns out they've got two names in mind - Lorenzo and Jionni Jr.

The 24-year-old Snooki, who flaunted her baby bump in the pages of In Touch, told the magazine she was hoping to have a baby Snooki instead of a boy.

I thought it was going to be a girl. I was hoping it would be, because all girls want girls, Snooki said.

Nevertheless, Snooki is stoked to have a boy with LaValle, who she's been dating for about 1 ½ years.

It's still my baby, no matter what. I'm excited either way! she told In Touch.

Snooki's pregnancy has changed her habits in a number of ways. For instance, she's no longer into pickles and now goes for anything cold and juicy, like Italian ices.

The Jersey Shore meatball also said her sex drive has not increased as usual with most pregnancies.

Our sex life is hardly there! I just feel too icky and gross. I'm so not in the mood to do stuff, she said.

What will also change, according to Snooki, is her partying ways that has been the highlight of every Jersey Shore episode, such as the episode in Italy where Snooki embarrasses Jionni by going out to the club sans panties and flashing her boobs.

I'm not going to party hard anymore, even after the baby is born, Snooki said. Being a mom changes you.

Snooki's pregnancy has not affected the filming of an MTV spinoff featured the Snookster and her partner in crime, Jennifer JWoww Farley.

Nicole and Jenni began filming last week and moved into their new digs with animal print furniture in tow ... Things are going great thus far, an MTV spokesman said.

While Snooki prepares for her pregnancy and films the spinoff, Lavalle has plans to become a teacher, MTV reported.
