Gisele Bündchen is taking it easy until her bundle of joy arrives … the supermodel has put work on pause until after she gives birth to her baby with Joaquim Valente, TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ … Gisele shot some projects all the way up until early October … but has since taken a step back from work to focus on her pregnancy.

There’s no clear timeline on when Gisele plans to return to modeling … but we’re told she has every intention to wait until she’s 100% ready to get in front of the camera again.

The Brazilian beauty notably retired from walking the runway back in 2015 … though, she’s kept busy doing print work for fashion campaigns and magazine covers.

After GB — a former popular Victoria’s Secret Angel — was absent from the VS runway show at the start of October, sources told TMZ the model declined an invitation to participate … and it’s now clear her pregnancy likely played a factor in that decision.

This career update comes days after it was revealed Gisele was expecting her first child with her boyfriend — it’s her 3rd kid after previously welcoming son Benjamin and daughter Vivian with ex-husband Tom Brady.

She was also previously a stepmom to the retired NFL star’s firstborn, Jack … who Tom shares with his ex, Bridget Moynahan.

As TMZ previously reported, the 44-year-old model is about 5 to 6 months along, but the couple is waiting until birth to find out if they’re having a boy or a girl.
