Lady Macduff tells her son that his father is dead.
They have a conversation of about 35 lines in Act 4 Scene 2. She asks him what he will do now that his father is dead. He says he'll get by and anyway his father is not dead. Then he asks a lot of questions about what traitors are, since his father is apparently one.
It isn't said if it's a boy or girl but it is shown that it has died when she reflects on what she had.
Improved:
It is said in Act 1 Scene 7 that
"I have given suck, and know how tender tis to love the babe that milk me: I would, while it was smiling in my face, have pluck'd my nipple from his boneless gums, and dash'd the brains out, had I so sworn as you have done to this."
This states that the baby is a boy, and it is said in late documents that Shakespeare has carefully censored this to remove the fact that Lady Macbeth had a child in a previous marriage.

Lady Macduff has one son in Shakespeare's play Macbeth.
Lady Macduff and her son were killed by Macbeth's murderers. He killed them because he was really afraid of everything (after witches' predictions) and wanted to harm Macduff.
The messenger tells Lady Macduff that trouble is coming. To get her son and flee.
Well, if you mean killed, there were many! King Duncan, Banquo, Lady Macduff, Lady Macduff's son, other members of the Macduff family and Macbeth!
Lady Macduff tells her son that his father is dead because he has fled and left them without protection, which she views as a cowardly act. She emphasizes that his father is a traitor and no longer cares for them.
Lady Macduff was created in 1603.
Macduff's son was created in 1603.
Macbeth, Lady Macbeth, Banquo, Fleance, Duncan, Malcolm, Donalbain, Macduff, Lady Macduff, their son, Lennox, Ross, Siward, Young Siward, the Porter, the Doctor, the Waiting Woman, and a number of messengers.
Shakespeare's dialogue between Ross and Lady Macduff makes readers begin to like the mother and son. Once you find them appealing and likable, he then kills them off.
Because macduff harbors suspicions about the person who actually murderd King Duncan, therefore he turnes against Macbeth and consequently was absent from his coronation. Macbeth organises to kill her for revenge and also to set a distraction to protect himself from an enraged Macduff.
Both mention birds. Lady MacDuff references the wren, and MacDuff references chickens.
