Which members of the Bringing Up Bates family are expecting babies in 2025? They already have nearly forty grandchildren, so they are not lacking. Regardless, the kids keep procreating, making the family even bigger. So, who will be adding to the brood this year and the following? Keep reading for more details.

Who Is Pregnant In 2025?

The Bringing Up Bates family is constantly expanding. Recently, Chad and Erin Bates Paine had a son, Henry, who was their seventh. Unfortunately, Erin got incredibly sick and ended up having seizures, leaving one leg struggling to move. Fortunately, her mother, Kelly Jo Bates, was there by her side to cook and keep the house going. Evan and Carlin Bates Stewart also welcomed a baby this year, Navy Kate, who came shortly after Henry. Two other Bates babies came in 2025, but the kids are not done; in fact, far from it.

There are still four Bates kids who are waiting for their little ones to make an appearance. So, who is still pregnant? Lawson and his wife, Tiffany, struggled to have a baby but welcomed a son and are now expecting another child. This baby will join the world in December 2025. However, another grandchild will be popping in around the same time, as Kelton and Josie Bates Balka are also expecting another child. It will be their fourth child, as their third came in early 2024. Both Lawson and Josie are looking at November/December due dates, but it does not end with them.

Two more Bringing Up Bates babies are on the horizon for 2026. Zach and Whitney Bates will welcome baby number six in the spring. They are already parents to Bradley, Kaci, Khloé, Jadon, and Lily. Finally, Bobby and Tori Bates Smith are welcoming their sixth, as well. This baby is also expected in early spring 2026 or possibly late winter. They share Kade, Kolter, Charlotte, Cambree, and Weston, but are thrilled to keep adding on. Growing their families has been a big deal, given that Gil and Kelly Jo had nineteen babies.

Forty Is Enough?

By 2026, Gil and Kelly Jo Bates will have around forty grandchildren. Yet, the Bringing Up Bates kids are far from done, as their youngest child is only thirteen. Therefore, the unmarried, younger Bates kids still have time to welcome a plethora of littles. Gil and Kelly Jo could easily have over sixty grands in the long run. It is unclear if the reason there are so many grandkids is that the family was so extensive. However, they love their large families and likely will keep on going.
