Will Kate emerge from her Norfolk seclusion sporting a bigger than ever Alice band? Will the Mail and Express stories about Meghan get more ludicrous by the day? And will this thread see the arrival of Baby Sussex? All will be revealed in due course...

Thanks Queen.

Will the baby be wearing a hair band when it is born?

popcorndiva · 10/04/2019 13:32

Based on when she announced her pregnancy surely she must be due / overdue

She announced around the time of Eugenie's wedding, which was when? Mid-October? She must've been at least 12 weeks because by the time they got to Fiji a couple of weeks later she had a small bump showing. So yes, she's probably due in the next couple of days!

Thanks Queen

I've NC'd but I've been on all these threads, honest Grin

popcorndiva · 10/04/2019 13:45

It has seemed a loooong pregnancy

Horsemad · 10/04/2019 13:48

Thanks for the new thread - great title (as they all are! 😉)

The birth could be today, it could have happened already. How exciting.

I think we will get a back and white foot photo on instagram or a snuggly photo. It won’t be like the usual birth photo.

A black and white foot photo sounds very Meghan!

Checking into the delivery suite.

Looking forward to the new photos of Baby Sussex; will no doubt set a trend and be widely copied.

Just seen on Instagram that Harry is developing a series on mental health with Oprah. It'll air next year.

The question is, are the media camping outside the Lindo wing or elsewhere yet?

QueenOfTheAndals · 10/04/2019 14:08

I don't think they're camped anywhere at the moment as, despite the rumours, H&M haven't confirmed where she's having the baby. Imagine if she has it and never annouces where? The Mail will never forgive her!

Max looking stunning

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 10/04/2019 14:10

That would be soo cool! First view of Baby Sussex will definitely be their instagram. It may well break the internet.

DobbyTheHouseElk · 10/04/2019 14:17

I think she will have a home birth. Or a water birth at home, candlelight and whale music..

motheroftinydragons · 10/04/2019 14:18

I wonder if they'll do the whole waving on the steps thing? I suspect not.

QueenOfTheAndals · 10/04/2019 14:19

Now if she live streams it on Instagram then she really will break the internet!

Thanks Queen
I think we'll just get a photo on their insta page with the announcement.
The DM will self implode in an apoplectic fit Grin

Thanks QueenoftheAndals for the new thread.

I'm ready for little Lord Dumbarton and/or little Lady Elizabeth Doria Diana.
