Alongside a video of Jasmine putting a "Dad" hat on Jarius and showing off a strip of sonogram images, Jasmine wrote, "Two hearts became one... and now we're adding a little one."
She added the following hashtags to her post: "#babyontheway #comingsoon
#babyannouncement #pregnancy #pregnancyannouncement #futureparents and #futuremama."
Jasmine learned she's going to be a mom shortly after she married Jarius in June.
"I actually found out super early, like 2.5 weeks," Jasmine told People in an interview.
"I still don't even know how it showed up that soon. My monthly friend was only one day late, and my husband kept insisting I take a test because, honestly, she shows up like clockwork every month."
Jasmine recalled taking a pregnancy test just to prove to her husband that he was wrong.
"[It was] mostly so I could say, 'See? I took it, now leave me alone!' I definitely wasn't expecting those two lines to show up," she admitted.
But once the former pageant queen discovered she's pregnant, she said she ran out of the bathroom and told Jarius right away.
"I had all these cute ideas planned for how I wanted to tell him, but in that moment, I was just so shocked and excited I couldn't hold it in for a second!" Jasmine shared.
Jasmine gushed about how she and Jarius are "so excited" to become parents.

"We are beyond excited! It's been so hard keeping it to ourselves because we get so giddy about every appointment," Jasmine said.
"We even visit a little ultrasound place sometimes just to peek in on baby."

Jasmine said the couple told their families about the baby within one week of seeing the positive pregnancy test.
"We're all so close, there's no way we could've kept it from them. We just feel so grateful that God continues to bless us with the desires of our hearts," she noted.
Jasmine announced she was engaged again in December 2024 after her Married at First Sight journey had ended in divorce.
Jasmine shared photos of Jarius' marriage proposal on Instagram, which included a black carpet covered in red rose petals and a large lit-up "MARRY ME" sign.
Jasmine's Married at First Sight season aired in 2023 and featured her marrying Airris Williams.

When Airris and Jasmine met with the Married at First Sight experts on Decision Day, the experts were shocked to hear that they both wanted a divorce, especially since Airris thought Jasmine was an impressive, wonderful and supportive woman.
Airris explained there was "a lot of good" in his marriage but he needed more than that.
Airris said he imagined being more smitten with his wife and having more intimacy -- but he never revealed what exactly about Jasmine supposedly turned him off out of respect for her, except for the fact Jasmine didn't have the body type he typically desires in women.
Although Jasmine felt rejected during the experiment, she announced how she's a beautiful "bad b-tch" and it takes "two people" to make a marriage work.
When Pastor Calvin Roberson asked the couple if they discovered any dealbreakers, Airris suggested that Jasmine lacked self-love and he wants to be with a woman who "loves the hell out of herself."
Jasmine, who seemed taken aback by the revelation, asked, "You don't think I love myself?"
Airris admitted Jasmine tended to shut down during the experiment and not show her true colors. Jasmine insisted she loved herself, and so Airris said they could "agree to disagree."
Jasmine, in turn, snapped at Airris for having "commitment issues." She said Airris was used to ghosting women and leaving relationships was his "norm."
"I just really feel like if it wasn't the attraction thing, it would've been something else," Jasmine vented.
"And I don't think he's in a place where he can fully commit to the marriage. I don't really think he was ready to be married. I don't think at any point in the process I truly got that effort from him."
After the meeting, Jasmine said she didn't regret doing the experiment and she was more ready to be married than ever before.
By the time the reunion special filmed, Jasmine revealed that she was in a new relationship, but it's unclear if her husband was that man.
