When a fan asked Tia for an update on her family planning and if she'd like to try for Baby No. 2 in the next year, Tia shared a photo of an ovulation strip, according to BachelorNation.com.
Tia wrote alongside the photo in reply, "God willing. I've been trying to track my ovulation and it's harder than it seems."
Earlier this year, Tia and her family -- husband Taylor Mock and son Tatum -- also moved into a bigger house.
Tia got engaged to Taylor in April 2022, and they welcomed their first child in December of that year.
Tia and Taylor got married in early November 2023 in Nashville, TN.
"I'm honored to be Taylor's wife and Tatum's mom. I love our life so much. As long as I have them, I'm happy," Tia gushed to People at the time.
"The next chapter looks like more babies ASAP! Grow businesses, grow as a team. We're also getting a puppy to keep things interesting. We're pumped."
And Taylor added, "I love that we get to raise Tatum together every day."
A couple of months after getting engaged during a "Bachelor Live On Stage" performance in Atlanta, GA, Tia announced she was pregnant with her first child on Father's Day in June 2022.
Tia ended up posting a sweet tribute to her late father as well as Taylor, a California-raised construction and project manager who currently lives with Tia in Nashville.

"While I wish I could tell my dad all the good news in person, it brings me peace that he knows about it long before I do... I have no doubt my dad had a hand in this," Tia captioned a black-and-white image of the couple embracing her small baby bump.

She added, "Happy heavenly Father's Day to the first man I ever loved and Happy soon-to-be Father's Day to my forever."
Tia said she took "at least four" pregnancy tests and a blood test before sharing the big news with Taylor.
"Taylor's reaction was fine. He wasn't bummed or anything... He was like, 'Sounds good!'" Tia explained on her "Click Bait with Bachelor Nation" podcast last summer.
Tia then revealed one month later that she was expecting a baby boy in July 2022.
Tia said she found out she was "four-and-a-half or five weeks" pregnant just nine days after Taylor proposed marriage and the couple got engaged. Tia believes she and Taylor conceived their baby on March 26, 2022.
"I wasn't excited at first. I was freaking out," Tia confessed.

The Bachelor alum said she and Taylor "weren't trying to get pregnant," but at the same time, they "weren't trying very hard not to get pregnant."
Tia recalled being "excited" once she got over the initial shock of her baby and arrived at the conclusion she and Taylor would not be able to have a 2022 wedding.
"I think that was kind of the bummer part," Tia said.
Taylor made a brief appearance on the "Click Bait" podcast after he popped the question and said of his "Bachelor Live On Stage" proposal, "I thought it would be cool to close Tia's chapter with The Bachelor franchise."
Tia said she had "never been more shocked" than in the moment when Taylor popped the question onstage.
"I did not expect it, not one freakin' little second," Tia noted.

Tia and Taylor were only together for nine months, officially, before they got engaged.
"But we've known each other [as friends] for over a year," Tia said after the engagement. "I know people are like, 'It's so fast,' but I'm 30! He's 26. At this point, we don't have to wait... And in Bachelor Nation, it's an eternity!"
When Tia announced her engagement on Instagram, she captioned a selfie, "Never been more shocked or sure in my life. I love you so much Tay, my FIANCE!!!"
Tia first announced she has a serious boyfriend in late October 2021 on Instagram.
Tia originally competed for Arie Luyendyk Jr.'s heart on The Bachelor's 22nd season and made it to hometown dates before he sent her packing.

During her first Bachelor in Paradise appearance, Tia was memorably dumped by Colton Underwood, who subsequently when on to become The Bachelor's Season 23 star. (Three years later, Colton also publicly came out as gay.)
Tia sparked romances with Kenny Braasch, James Bonsall, Blake Monar, and Aaron Clancy during her second Bachelor in Paradise stint in 2021, but she chose to leave Mexico on her own towards the end of the process.
Tia seemed most interested in Blake, but he didn't put enough effort into their relationship, according to the bachelorette.
Tia revealed on Bachelor in Paradise that she had a history of dating men "who don't care" enough to woo her, and she's a person who believes actions speak louder than words.
