IT SEEMS AS IF the nooky has finally caught up with Snooki.

The "Jersey Shore" breakout sensation, who's about to start a new spinoff with J-Woww, is reportedly pregnant.

O-Woww.

Is MTV going to change the name to "Snooki and JWoww and a Bambino vs. the World"?

It's hard to guess who first broke the story of the Snook's pregnancy, because the rumors and denials have been going on for weeks.

Now Snooki says, per TMZ. com, that she lied about being with child because she wanted to get through her first trimester and not jinx anything.

In fairness to Snooki, it's the first time she ever passed a trimester.

The father is allegedly Snooki's boyfriend, Jionni LaValle.

But in the dark, with the scent of booze, cigarettes, Pauly D and the Situation hanging in the air, who really knows.
