I have been waiting to see who gave birth first, the Duchess of Sussex or my niece, whose due date is April 27. If there is an ambulance at the Sussex residence, I believe the Duchess will give birth first. My niece just e-mailed me that everything is calm in their household in Ann Arbor.

The photo I saw of the ambulance looked like it was outside the walls of Windsor Castle! I’m pretty sure Meghan would be getting to hospital in a more discrete way. I’m still convinced she’s already had the baby. She hasn’t been seen in public since March 19th........

They’re now saying that yesterday was her due date.
IF she was in labour yesterday, and IF she was going to Frimley Park to have the baby, the only way to get in quickly would be by ambulance. The entrance to the hospital by car, is always snarled up, and the traffic crawls at a snails pace, so they’d get stuck in that if they were trying to get in discreetly.

I’m thinking it was a false alarm. If yesterday was her due date, we technically could have 2 more weeks of this!!!

I started to post about it in Random Comments but got interrupted here at home yesterday. My niece did have her baby. It was on April 26. She had a boy; he weighed 8 lbs 2.9 ounces. Mother and baby are healthy.
Congratulations @AGBF!

Congratulations @AGBF!
Thank you. I shouldn't have posted in this thread. I meant to "announce" (such that I have an announcement) in Random Comments. No one wants to read about this baby in the Royal baby thread!

I am kinda thinking the baby has been born. The family all visited them at their new house. That kind of sounds like the baby is here to me. But we shall see!

I agree DS - I saw a news report this morning that said they had stopped taking bets on the due date as it is assumed that the child has already been born. The bigger money was on the fact that it is a girl and her name is Ivy. We shall see!

is that royal bub here yet ?
does anyone remember if there was all this fuss when Princess Ann had Peter Philips?
or when Fergie had Bee ?
or for that matter when Princess Margaret
had her two ?
this little baby is so far down the line of succession if the Queen doesn't issue letters patent then the bub isnt going to be a prince or princess until Charlie takes the throne
Is it the American factor making all the racket ?
I do wish the Sussex family all the best with love in my heart,
but id like to see someone else on the magazines covers occasional ...perhaps you know HM, the real star of the show
i do thing its wounderful that HM and Prince Philip get to be great grandparents again

Well, the oddsmakers were all wrong - the baby hadn't been born, it is a boy and not a girl, and it certainly won't be named Ivy! Lol!
I am sure they are thrilled and excited!!

I was convinced it was a girl. The important thing is that they’re both safe.

I LOVED his down to earth announcement. A very touched first time dad, overjoyed and down to earth and so full of love and emotion for his baby and his wife (and respect for what she just accomplished! ) .

I like the way he included other men becoming fathers in his short speech with the press. William did the same thing when he got engaged. He spoke of his nerves of asking someone to marry you and added "as any guy will tell you". That's the thing with the Royals. They go through similar things as everyone else, including marriages, births, divorces and the aim is to be inclusive.
