“Watching you two dance really made me excited to have that own, my own moment with my…”
Kaeli Mae had some exciting baby news to share with her followers recently.
The 25-year-old TikTok star, who has more than 14 million followers on the platform, took to social media on Oct. 1 to share her pregnancy announcement one year after experiencing a pregnancy loss.
“Half of me + half of u. Our rainbow baby, we can’t wait to meet you,” Mae wrote in a caption alongside a carousel of maternity photos featuring her baby bump and husband Bradley Ragains.
She has since posted several other clips and photos from the maternity shoot, which took place in Hawaii.
On Oct. 2, Mae posted a video of herself holding a pregnancy test as she waited for the results. When she flipped it over, she saw a faint pink line appear — suggesting that she was pregnant.
She then confirmed the pregnancy with several other tests before sharing a clip of the ultrasound.
“Our greatest blessing!! If you’ve ever gone through or are currently going through something similar, know that you’re not alone & there is hope,” she wrote in the caption of an Instagram video two days later.
The announcement comes nearly three weeks after she posted photos from a recent trip to Hawaii.
She did a good job of hiding her baby bump, but it didn’t take long for her followers to catch on — with many of them taking to the comment section to share their prediction that a baby might be on the way.

“U ARE HINTING SOMETHING,” one follower wrote.
“Your glowing hmm wonder why,” another fan commented.
It also comes one year after Mae and Ragains experienced a miscarriage — which means they’re currently expecting a rainbow baby.
“I’m sharing this because you deserve to be known — you were not expected, but you will not be forgotten,” she wrote in a TikTok caption at the time. “Your life deserves to be celebrated.”
Kaeli Mae says she already knows the gender — but won’t reveal it yet
On Oct. 4, Mae took to TikTok to share a “get ready with me” video as she talked about her pregnancy.
She revealed that she’s currently in her second trimester, but stopped short of revealing her due date since she’s a Type 1 diabetic and can give birth anywhere between 35 and 39 weeks.
She also revealed that she and Ragains found out the baby’s gender via a blood test at six weeks.
“We’ve known for a long time,” she said in the video. “We honestly just could not wait. I don’t know how people wait until birth. I mean, I’m sure that’s very exciting, but I cannot do that.”

The couple already did a gender reveal (by themselves) — and while she recorded it, she’s not yet sure when she’ll release the footage.
She went on to say that she’s excited that the news is out and she now feels like she can be herself again — further explaining that it was hard to make content while keeping a secret and dealing with symptoms.
“I would not trade this for absolutely anything,” she said of her “rough” pregnancy thus far. “It is all going to be so, so worth it.”
The pregnancy announcement caps off what has been an exciting 2025 for the couple, who tied the knot in May — seven months after revealing their pregnancy loss.
