hijo que viene en camino


Explanation:
No sabemos si el "soon to be child" es un bebé, y tampoco sabemos si va a nacer en la familia (no sé si es el padre o la madre el que dice la frase), por lo que también podría tratarse de un hijo que se va a adoptar.

Por esta razón, creo que "hijo que viene en camino" es más genérico y más adecuado en mi opinión, a no ser que el resto del texto nos desvele que se trata de un bebé y de que es la madre la que lo lleva en el vientre; en ese caso me gusta la opción "bebé que está por nacer".
