The 29-year-old soap star and his wife are already parents to three-year-old son Teddy.
Thomas and Daly told OK! Magazine that the baby was conceived on their wedding night during the summer.
When asked if they would rather a boy or a girl, Thomas said: "I really wanted a son but I have Teddy now so I'm not fussed either way."
"Adam is very close to his brothers so it’d be nice for Teddy to have a brother because they’d be best friends for life," Daly added.
"I’d love a daughter, though. One of each would make life perfect."
Earlier this year, the actor confirmed he would be leaving Emmerdale after nearly eight years on the ITV soap as Adam Barton.
"It was a really tough decision to take to leave, but I felt that now is the time to move on and challenge myself with some new roles," he said.
