She is in the Lindo Wing of St Mary's hospital in London and media have been prevented from camping outside for days, this time. I'm not sure how successful that is though- I've a feeling they will all just have crossed the street.

From your link, I can see that the 'ban' has resulted in all the media just crossing the street.

Oh hope its a girl I'd like to see a little princess. I do like the Royal family I did guard of honor for the Queen at Hillsborogh Castle when I was about 12. It's my claim to fame. The Queen walked past me and smiled

That's 6 people besides the Dutchess and Duke! I assume there were also nurses etc in the room, dear lord, poor Kate!

 

[fruity]

Yay for a baby girl! I wonder what her name will be.

 

[Mrs G Norris]

Oooh should we take bets? I am thinking Victoria or Charlotte ..

 

[shadowdancer]

I would be very surprised if the baby is not called Elizabeth.

 

[Mrs G Norris]

Alice is the frontrunner according to the bookies, but seems too good to be true.

 

[Pi Thoughts]

Oooh should we take bets? I am thinking Victoria or Charlotte ..

My thoughts......Elizabeth!

 

[shadowdancer]

Apparently other royal mothers in fairly recent history have been told not to use George or Elizabeth.

They already have George......

They might go for something different like Alice, but I think it will be Elizabeth.
