OBGYN Dr. Shonda Corbett told INSIDE EDITION what dangers the “Got Till It’s Gone” singer may face.
"There is a risk of miscarriage in the first trimester, especially if someone is more active," Corbett said. "Given Janet Jackson's lifestyle, I would assume her doctors would have her restrained from doing so much physical activity in that first trimester -- just have her rest to be on the safe side."

Last month, the singer announced she was postponing her world tour to start a family.
She secretly wed her third husband, 41-year-old billionaire businessman Wissam Al Mana in 2012.
