As 2017 comes to an end, there are new beginnings ahead for some. Multiple A-list stars are expecting babies in 2018.

Kirstin Dunst: The 35-year-old actress is expecting her first child with fiancé Jesse Plemons, according to a Wednesday Us Weekly report. Dunst and Plemons started dating in 2016, while filming FX's hit series Fargo. They are set to wed in spring 2018.

John Stamos: At 54 years old, everyone's favorite (hot) Uncle Jessie is expecting his first child with fiancée Caitlin McHugh. While appearing on The Jess Cagle Interview, the Fuller House actor, who popped the question to McHugh back in October, revealed he and McHugh "talked about" having a baby before they tied the knot. " [McHugh suggested], 'Maybe we should have a kid [before we get married],' and I said, 'Why?'" Stamos added that his bride-to-be responded, "'Because you're old.'"

Chrissy Teigen: Just 19 months after welcoming her first child with music superstar husband John Legend, Teigen announced on social media in November that they were expecting a second. In an Instagram video, Teigen, pointing to her belly, asks daughter Luna "what's in here?" She cutely replies, "Baby."

Kate Middleton: Back in September, Kensington Palace announced the Duchess of Cambridge was expecting her third child with Prince William. The couple—who are parents to Prince George, 4, and Princess Charlotte, 2—was "delighted with the news" of Middleton's pregnancy. Baby No. 3 is expected to make his or her royal debut in spring 2018.

Kim Kardashian West: The reality star announced she was expecting baby No. 3 with Kanye West in September. The baby will join sister North, 4, and Saint, 2, in early 2018.

Jessica Alba: The 36-year-old announced her third pregnancy with husband Cash Warren in an Instagram post back in July. Alba, who is already a mother to 9-year-old Honor Marie and 6-year-old Haven Garner, will give birth to the couple's first son.

Mindy Kaling: The creator and star of The Mindy Project announced she was pregnant while appearing on The Ellen DeGeneres show in October. The baby girl is Kaling's first child. She has yet to reveal who the father is.

Lady Antebellum: All three members of the country music group are expecting new babies. In September, Hillary Scott revealed that she was expecting twin girls with husband Chris Tyrrell. Dave Haywood announced last month that he and wife Kelli Cashiola are expecting their second child.

Michael Phelps: After welcoming Boomer Robert Phelps in May 2016, the Olympic swimmer and wife Nicole Phelps announced baby No. 2 via Instagram in August.

Adam Levine: The Maroon 5 singer revealed that he was expecting his second daughter with supermodel wife Behati Prinsloo while appearing on The Ellen DeGeneres show in November. "I want a lot [of children]. I thrive in chaos," Levine said.

Donald Glover: While accepting his first Emmy award in September, Glover, also known as Childish Gambino, announced that he and partner Michelle were expecting their second child. "I want to thank my baby, my son, for being the joy in my life. I want to thank my unborn son—we're listening to Stevie [Wonder] tonight," he said.

And although still unconfirmed, rumor has it that fellow Keeping Up With the Kardashian stars Khloe Kardashian and Kylie Jenner will also give birth in 2018.

Kardashian is reportedly expecting a child with boyfriend Tristain Thompson, who she refers to as "daddy" on social media. She recently moved to Cleveland, where Thompson lives, which increased baby rumors.

Meanwhile, the youngest Jenner will have her first child—a girl—with rapper Travis Scott. More than likely, news will officially drop (or be dismissed) on the E! reality TV show.
