"Oops I did it again... no, this one was not planned," Tanner, 33, said in response to Instagram user asking if the pregnancy was planned.
Tanner also sang a little bit of the iconic Britney Spears tune and added, "Very much an accident, and very much a surprise when Jade told me."
And Jade, 33, agreed, "Yes, this was a big surprise."
Jade shared she is currently 13 weeks along in her pregnancy and due to give birth around Thanksgiving in November 2020, People reported.
Jade and Tanner welcomed daughter Emerson, 2, in August 2017 and son Brooks, 9 months, in July 2019. Brooks arrived when Jade unexpectedly and accidentally gave birth in their master bedroom's closet.
The couple reportedly joked they'll have their hospital bags packed in October this year "just to be safe" in case Jade goes into labor earlier than anticipated again.
"Because we're not having this one in the closet again," Tanner said.
Jade also revealed she's received her genetic testing results from her doctor via email but neither of the spouses know the baby's sex yet.

However, the pair reportedly said they already have baby names picked out.
"[We have] a favorite boy name and a favorite girl name [selected]," Tanner said, adding however that the names could "change between now and November."
"We have two [names] that we liked that were kinda leftovers from last time," Jade elaborated in their Instagram Live with her followers, "so we'll see if we find some more that we like."
On whether Jade and Tanner could envision themselves expanding their family even more down the road, Tanner admitted he's "content at two" -- but "who the hell knows?!"
"Now that we're having three, I kinda feel like what's the difference between three and four?" Tanner reportedly said.
"I think three is a good number," Jade noted.
Jade and Tanner got engaged during the Season 2 finale of Bachelor in Paradise in Summer 2015 and then tied the knot in January 2016 for a televised special on ABC.

They later appeared on Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars that same year.
After initially living in the Kansas City area and building a home there, the couple later moved to the Los Angeles area.
Earlier this month, the couple talked to Us about potentially having another child, but they weren't exactly on the same page.
"We've talked about it. I think Jade definitely wants one. I am on the fence," Tanner admitted to the magazine. "More and more as time goes on, I think I'm joining her side for like, 'Okay, a third would be kind of cool to have.'"
"But if he wants a third, he said he wants to do it now," Jade chimed in, "and I'm like, 'I don't know, I feel like I need some time!'"
Jade initially competed for Chris Soules' heart on The Bachelor's nineteenth season, while Tanner first appeared on Kaitlyn Bristowe's edition of The Bachelorette.
It's remains unclear when The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise will begin production on their next seasons, but ABC reality chief Robert Mills has said The Bachelorette takes priority.
