Since the British royal family announced in September the third pregnancy of Kate Middleton and that the baby would be born in April, all eyes are on the Duchess of Cambridge. Birth can occur "from one moment to another," according to the words of Prince William himself. Can be matter of days.
Although he no longer made public appearances because he officially already enjoys his maternity leave, last Sunday he could be seen at Easter Mass with the rest of the family. The roundness of his face announces the proximity of the day, as the grandmothers would say, it already has "childbirth face". Y Everything is ready for the arrival of the real baby.
Everything prepared for childbirth
Everything is ready for birth, and nothing is left to chance. Kate doesn't want inductions or scheduled births, so the delivery will happen when the baby decides to be born.
Although rumors circulated about a possible birth at home (or rather, in the palace), and of course the duchess did not speak about it, the place where the next real baby will be born is an unknown.
Most likely, she was born at the Saint Mary hospital in London, the same center where her two children were born, princes George and Charlotte, and where Princess Diana had William and Harry.
It has been known that the family has reserved a private delivery room in the Cute wing of the hospital, that the suite It costs six thousand euros the first 24 hours if the baby is born naturally, and seven thousand seven hundred if born by caesarean section.
As for the medical team, Kate will be attended by her gynecologist, Alan Farthing, 54, who has delayed her retirement to attend the duchess. He will have at his disposal about twenty nurses and doctors, as well as anesthetists and specialists in postnatal care.
It is expected that, as on the previous two occasions, childbirth is natural.
The bets of the British
Everything around the British royal family causes a stir among the British, and the birth of Kate and William's third offspring is no exception. The English place bets on the date of birth, sex and baby name.
Date of birth: According to the Daily Mail, the date it will come to the world is the April 23, St. George's Day, patron of England. Maybe the baby has already come with standard patriotic feeling and the predictions are fulfilled.

What will Kate and William's baby be called?
