Alexander Skarsgård appears to have welcomed first baby with Tuva Novotny

Congratulations may be in order for Alexander Skarsgård.

The “Big Little Lies” alum appears to have welcomed his first child with Tuva Novotny, seven months after the Swedish actress debuted her baby bump.

Novotny, 42, was spotted pushing a stroller Monday after a dinner date in New York City.

Skarsgård, 46, walked beside the Stockholm native while holding a baby wrapped in a blanket in his arms.

The couple have yet to announce the birth, and the “Northman” star’s rep did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.

Rumors spread earlier this year that Skarsgård was dating Novotny, who is also the mother of daughter Ella, 15, from a previous relationship with Nicolai Bjerrum Lersbryggen.

The notoriously private duo have yet to confirm their relationship.

The actor — who has made headlines over the years for his romances with Alexa Chung, Kate Bosworth and Evan Rachel Wood — shared his future fatherhood plans in 2013.

“I want to beat my dad,” he told Chelsea Handler at the time of actor Stellan Skarsgård. “He had eight [kids], so I better get cracking, I guess.”

The “Legend of Tarzan” star clarified, “My dad is 65, and he had a kid four years ago. My dad had kids in the ’70s, the ’80s, the ’90s, the 2000s and the 2010s. Six with mom [My Skarsgård] and two with … his new wife [Megan Everett].”

Alexander, whose brothers Bill Skarsgård and Gustaf Skarsgård are also actors, praised his big family, gushing about how much fun it was to “grow up in a madhouse.”

He recalled, “I thought it was really cool. It was fun.”

When it comes to marriage, the Emmy nominee spoke to the London Times in November 2018 about his refusal to “settle” down and tie the knot.

“I’m not going to … say, ‘Oh, you’re all right — let’s make a family,'” he said. “I’m more romantic than that. I have friends who’ve done that, and they’re not happy, and then they go through horrible divorces.”

The “Stand” alum noted that he was “really enjoying life at the moment” without a wife and children.
