Carrie Underwood is pregnant with baby number two [3]! Carrie, already mom to 3-year-old Isaiah, shared in an Instagram video that her and husband Mike Fisher would be welcoming "another fish to our pond," due in 2019, but doesn't share exactly when. However, after conducting an investigation (ish), we think we've figured out when the baby will be joining the fold.
The announcement was made on Aug. 8 — just a week after Carrie was quoted in Redbook as saying she felt her and Mike "may have missed our chance to have a big family" [4] — so nine months from now would bring us to May 2019. However, her Instagram video was also a plug for her new album, Cry Pretty, and 2019 "Cry Pretty Tour 360," in which she shared that she'd see all of her fans when she hits the road on May 1. "You might be wondering, or asking, 'Carrie, why is your tour starting in May?'" the singer says in her announcement video, as the camera pans out from her face to reveal silver balloons that spell out "baby."
Presumably, Carrie's planning on giving herself a bit of time to recover before touring again [5], so we're guessing the singer has known of her incoming bundle of joy for about a month or more by now. We're also keeping in mind that many women, though not all, choose to wait until the three-month mark before announcing a pregnancy [6].
Assuming we're correct, we can likely expect Carrie's second baby to make their debut between February and April of 2019. Congrats to the whole family during this very exciting time!
