On Tuesday, January 9, a fan inquired on Snapchat about the possibility of a second kid for the YouTuber and 'Do It' singer. To which DDG responded, "No, I believe you gotta wait six weeks for that. That’s what I was told."
The 'I’m Geekin' rapper (who was born Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr) went on to say that he believes having another child is "too early," per Page Six.
"I don’t want to split attention too quick. Like, I wanna at least just wait a little bit — let him get the full-blown attention right now," DDG added.
Referring to Halo, the rapper added, "Our whole world is him right now, so I don’t wanna take that away from him … I want him to experience that for a few years."
DDG, 26, concluded the video by stating that Halo might be an only child and that it is up to the "Lord Jesus Christ" whether or not he and Bailey have any more children.

Following months of rumors that Bailey was pregnant, the pair finally made the announcement of their baby boy.
The 'Angel' singer attended the 2023 MTV VMAs wearing an orange, flowy dress that flawlessly concealed her baby belly, which sparked a wave of pregnancy rumors.
An insider exclusively told Page Six at the time, "Halle stayed away from the pink carpet so she would not be photographed, and when she was inside, she was very mindful in the way she gave hugs, and who she gave them to."
The pregnancy has not been confirmed by Bailey or DDG, who announced their relationship to the public in March 2022.
DDG reveals why Halle Bailey's pregnancy was kept secret
The news of Halle Bailey and DDG's baby boy has taken center stage in headlines ever since they made the announcement.
Now that the secret was finally out, the YouTube star gave an explanation of his and Bailey's decision to keep the actress' pregnancy a secret in a vlog titled 'I'm A Dad Now.'
The rapper kicked off the vlog, which featured never-before-seen footage of Bailey's pregnancy, by saying: "I’m a dad. I’m a dad, y’all. I have a son — I have a baby boy."
"He’s a newborn — he was actually born last year [but] we were just waiting on the right time to basically break the news or whatever. It’s been a lot of speculation…" DDG continued.
The 'Moonwalking In Calabasas' rapper claimed that it was not that difficult. "It was harder for me than it was for her for sure because she don’t really be on social media like I do."
Referring to the part of his job that involves creating content and streaming video games, DDG remarked, "Social media is what I do. It’s why I’m here today."
He added, "This is one of my biggest accomplishments and I wasn’t able to show it for real for real but it was for a better cause ’cause people weird."
"People are way too much in my business, our business, at this point in time. So, definitely for the better and it made it a lot easier, bringing him into the world without a bunch of opinions," the new father remarked.
