Pregnant Swiftie Spots Her Baby Making Taylor Swift’s Signature ‘Heart Hands’ in Sonogram… đ«¶
Taylor Swift fan Marie Smith noticed her daughter posing in style during a routine ultrasound
A pregnant Swiftie learned some exciting news from a routine visit to the doctor: her daughter is looking like a Taylor Swift fan too!
Marie Smith spotted a tell-tale sign of her baby’s music taste during her 12-week ultrasound. Her little one’s hands were curled into a heart symbol, just like the iconic gesture Swift makes on stage.
The 27-year-old tells PEOPLE she couldnât believe her eyes when she first noticed her daughterâs pose in the sonogram. In fact, she waited to say anything until the doctor conducting the ultrasound pointed it out first.
âI was like, âOh my God, I’m so glad you said something. I wanted to make sure I was seeing it right. But I’m the biggest Taylor Swift fan, so I was sitting here dying and I’m so glad you said it,â â recalls Smith, whose daughter is due to arrive in October.
The Baltimore-based mom certainly fits the description for Swiftâs biggest fan. Smith was in the seventh grade when the country-turned-pop star dropped her debut album, and sheâs stuck with Swift through every era since.
Last summer, Smith â who is already mom to 17-month-old Nashton â took her 8-year-old cousin to see The Eras Tour in Pittsburgh. She tells PEOPLE she worked a second job and saved up money for months to attend the record-breaking concert.

Another TikTok user noted how the âlil Taylor totâ is âgetting ready for a future concert.â Smith tells PEOPLE sheâs hoping this is the case, even though she worries Swift might break from touring after wrapping her current career retrospective.
âEverybody’s saying, âShe’s done, this will be the last tour,â â Smith says. âShe has to just do one more. I have to take this kid.â
Whether or not they make it to another tour, Smith is sure that her daughter will inherit her Swiftie spirit. The little girl wonât, however, inherit the hitmakerâs first name.

No, Smith wonât be calling her daughter Taylor, as so many fans have suggested on Facebook and TikTok. Sheâs already decided on the name Blakelynn, but in true Swiftie spirit, the proud mom has dropped Easter eggs into her two kids’ names.
âI try to tie it in a little bit,â Smith tells PEOPLE. âMy son is Nashton, so I like to say that Nash is where Taylor got her start. And then Blakelynn is Blake Lively, [Swift’s] best friend.â
