She's Pregnant

No, not Mel. Kate.

Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Cambridge is expecting a baby.
The Queen, The Duke of Edinburgh, The Prince of Wales, The Duchess of Cornwall and Prince Harry and members of both families are delighted with the news.

The Duchess was admitted this afternoon to King Edward VII Hospital in Central London with Hyperemesis Gravidarum. As the pregnancy is in its very early stages, Her Royal Highness is expected to stay in hospital for several days and will require a period of rest thereafter.

I wonder how many names this kid is going to have ?

I had to check what Hyperemesis Gravidarum is.

Hyperemesis gravidarum is a condition characterized by severe nausea, vomiting, weight loss, and electrolyte disturbance. Mild cases are treated with dietary changes, rest and antacids. More severe cases often require a stay in the hospital so that the mother can receive fluid and nutrition through an intravenous line (IV). DO NOT take any medications to solve this problem without first consulting your health care provider.

The poor thing.

It sounds a bit like morning sickness.

It is Freediver ... but not just feeling sick, actually throwing up constantly ALL day long and not being able to drink a glass of water without throwing up. Can cause dehydration, obviously. She's in good hands.

Wasn't the line of succession altered so a first-born girl can ascend?

Yes, regardless of what sex this kid is, it will be 3rd in Line (after Charles and William).

As far as the names go ....... I'd say traditional 3/4 names with Elizabeth (for a girl) and William (for a boy) in there somewhere .... plus a few others. She might even want MIDDLETON in there somewhere and that would really piss the Poms off.

Howso?
