Travis and Katie's Pregnancy Q&A

We took the most asked questions that you would want to know about the pregnancy that they are in.


Home birth or hospital birth? Who will be there?

Travis wants to do a home birth but Katie has said that she wants to do a hospital birth. Katie says that she would want to have some of her family to be in the room with them. 


Gender Reveal?

Katie and Travis revealed that they are planning to do a Gender Reveal in September. She says that they are finding out this pregnancy and then the next kid they might not find out.


Due date? Far along?

Katie is due on March 4th but the doctors are going to induce her at the end of February to early March due to her blood disorders. Katie has said that she is a little over 12 weeks.


Baby names and announcing it?

Travis and Katie are still working on the name of their baby. Travis has said that he doesn't want a Travis Junior. Travis and Katie are going to announce it as soon as they are sure of the names. 


How many kids?
