While snuggling her newborn Steven "Stevie" Jon -- who was born on April 5 -- on the couch, Becca confirmed that she and Thomas would like to continue expanding their family.
"When I was pregnant I was like, 'I don't know if I want this to be the last time I have a bump or the last time I can feel a little gremlin kicking inside of me,'" Becca said, according to BachelorNation.com.
"And obviously now that Stevie's here, it goes by so fast. I'm like, 'Oh I don't know if I'm ready to have this be my last newborn.'"
Becca went on to explain that she'd eventually like to get pregnant again -- and hopefully with a daughter.
"We really want a girl, so we'll see," Becca teased. "I mean I can't even actually think about that right now."
Becca reportedly crossed her fingers and added, "So obviously we're going to take some time, but I think eventually baby No. 3 might come at some point. We'll see."
The Bachelor alum also revealed that her second baby was always going to be named Stevie after her late father Steve Kufrin, regardless of the newborn's sex.
"Still Stevie. I've always wanted a girl to name Stevie but obviously god had other plans," she noted.
Becca and Thomas announced that they were expecting their second child together in October 2025.
In a Halloween-themed video set to "Season Of the Witch" by Lana Del Rey, Becca, who dressed up like a witch, stirred a "bubbling" cauldron while Thomas and the couple's first-born son, Benson "Benny" Lee Jacobs Kufrin, were sitting beside her.
Thomas and Becca proceed to pull out a strip of sonogram images from the cauldron before sharing a sweet kiss.

Becca captioned her post, "Something's brewing. Another little boo coming April, 2026."
Becca and Thomas had teased in May 2025 that they were trying for another baby.
Over footage of Becca and Thomas filling a raised plant bed with herbs, Thomas wrote, "POV: You're trying to grow the family and a seedling hasn't sprouted yet. So you build her a garden."
The video showed Becca and Thomas happily picking out plants at the store, organizing them, putting them into soil, and then watering them with the help of their son.
"Together, you fill it with life," Thomas continued.
"You tend to it. You care for it. You love on it. And one day, your family garden will continue to grow."
The clip concluded with Becca and Thomas kissing, and Thomas captioned the post, "Tending to the garden #familylife."

When one person asked if the post served as a pregnancy announcement, Thomas clarified, "No, not quite. We're trying out here tho!"
Becca and Thomas bought a house together in May 2024.
The couple had an intimate and impromptu wedding ceremony and tied the knot in October 2023, just a few weeks after Benson was born in September of that year.
During an Instagram Q&A in October 2023, a fan asked Thomas how many children he and Becca would like to have.
"Three-piece chicken combo is what we've been talking about," Thomas said.
"However, if No. 2 is a little girl, we will reconsider our options. If No. 2's a boy, definitely, [we want to have] No. 3 because Daddy needs a little girl so badly."
Becca and Thomas went on to explain how they arrived at Benson's unique and sentimental name.
"Benson, Benny for short, is after the town where my father was born and raised. Lee is for Thomas's father who sacrifices so much for this country and others," the couple shared at the time.
"And Jacobs Kufrin is pretty self explanatory but we wanted both parts of us to make this little one whole. Now we're off to go cry again over how much we love him."
Becca, who met Thomas on Season 7 of Bachelor in Paradise in 2021, wrote via Instagram Stories in 2023 how she had conceived her first baby naturally but still had eggs "on ice" in case the couple needed them in the future.
Becca originally appeared as a bachelorette on The Bachelor's 22nd season starring Arie Luyendyk Jr., and the season ended with the pair getting engaged.
However, Arie broke up with Becca for his runner-up, his current wife Lauren Burnham, before The Bachelor season's finale aired on ABC in March 2018.

Becca then decided to participate in Bachelor in Paradise's 2021 season -- becoming the first former The Bachelorette star to ever do so.
Meanwhile, Thomas had appeared on Season 17 of The Bachelorette earlier in 2021 before joining the cast of Bachelor in Paradise's seventh season only a couple of months after he was eliminated from his The Bachelorette season.
On Katie Thurston's The Bachelorette season, Katie sent Thomas home at the third Rose Ceremony. Several bachelors believed Thomas had joined The Bachelorette cast for the wrong reasons.
During Bachelor in Paradise's seventh-season finale, Becca was shown breaking up with Thomas before overnight Fantasy Suite dates because, despite having "an incredible start" to a relationship, she didn't want to leave The Bachelor franchise for the third time with a man unless she knew everything about him, including how he'd face adversity and real-life challenges.
However, the October 2021 finale concluded with an update on Becca and Thomas' relationship, revealing they had reunited after the Bachelor in Paradise season finished filming and were "happy and in love."
During subsequent media interviews, Becca revealed she was the one who had tracked down Thomas' phone number and initiated their reunion.
"After we ended things, I think I waited a couple days. I didn't have my phone right away and he didn't have his phone right away, so I think I gave it two days," Becca said during an appearance on the former "Talking It Out with Bachelor Nation" podcast.
Becca said she and Thomas met up in San Diego and picked up right where they had left off, and Thomas told Hollywood Life he had no hesitation or reservations about giving Becca another chance.
Becca also boasted about how Thomas was different from her past relationships.
"He is so supportive and he's just funny and quirky in the cutest ways," The Bachelorette alum said.
"Everything about him, I just felt safe with," she continued, "unlike anything I had in the past. I was just like, 'This guy is my guy.'"
