Jennifer Garner has three beautiful children with longtime hubby Ben Affleck - and that's enough for now!

But just a few months ago, the seedy gossip tabloid Ok! Magazine claimed that "after months in [marriage] counseling," the popular Hollywood couple was finally "expecting baby no. 4" (via GossipCop):

Well - that's simply not true. But the 42-year-old "13 Going On 30" actress insists that she DOES have a baby bump - so, how does that make sense!?

Here's why.

During a recent chat on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," Garner explained:

"I get congratulated all the time by people that I know, saying, 'I hear you're pregnant!' You know, this one woman who had babysat for us said, 'Oh, my gosh! I can't wait for No. 4!' and I thought, 'What is going on?' So I asked around and apparently I have a baby bump. And I'm here to tell you that I do..."

Some fans were shocked until she joked:

"Hold up. Hold right up! I am not pregnant, but I have had three kids, and there is a bump. From now on ladies, I will have a bump. And it will be my baby bump. And let's just all settle in and get used to it. It's not going anywhere. I have a bump... like a camel, but in reverse."

Ha!

Perhaps the beloved television host can relate, considering pregnancy rumors surrounding her own life partner Portia de Rossi continue going viral on the web. And no, the couple is NOT getting a divorce!

Silly gossip.

Well, Garner's relationship with Affleck seems better than ever. During the interview, she also discussed her husband's recent nude scene in the epic Thriller, "Gone Girl." Check it out:

But all humor aside, nope, Garner's not preggo!
