Birth of Felicia Juliana Bénedicte Barbara van Vollenhoven: May 31, 2005

[Tina]

and what Marilene have natural birth? or c-section?

the baby was born at home, so she had a natural birth (third time)

- so Marilène is the only Princess, who had no c-section

 

[The Watcher]

Máxima, Mabel, Laurentien didn't have a c-section too. Annette did have a c-section.

Máxima, Mabel, Laurentien didn't have a c-section too. Annette did have a c-section.

sure?

I thought Maxima and Laurentien did have, too and I know, that Annette had.

 

[The Watcher]

Yes, I'm sure. Both Laurentien and Máxima were allowed to go home the same day as they gave birth. When you have a c-section you have to stay in the hospital.

 

[Tina]

Yes, I'm sure. Both Laurentien and Máxima were allowed to go home the same day as they gave birth. When you have a c-section you have to stay in the hospital.

oh, you're right.

but Marilène was the only one, who got their children at home

Wonderful news!Congrats them and the Dutch.

Congratulations!

I like the name Felicia, it's feminine. I knew Juliana would be one of her names! So far JF and Mabel, and Maurits and Marilene have used the name only as a second name; perhaps leaving it for if WA and Maxima have a daughter?

Thanks Mandyy. They are lovely pictures. She is adorable, sleeping so peacefully. And the lace dress is beautiful.

How much is 4380 kilogram ...in pounds and ounces. I know I know....how horrible that I don't know kilograms, but if we learned it here in the USA (even just a brief talking of it) in school, then I was probably asleep or it was soo long ago that I don't remember. I really need to brush up on it!
Congrats to the happy family!!!!!!

4380 kilogram = 9 656,24708 pounds

I go on vacation and what do I return to? A royal birth! Congrats to Maurits and Marilene. I think I like the name Felicia. It has a very pretty sound. And she's absolutely gorgeous, just like her siblings.

Great pictures everyone! I especially got a kick out of the ones of Maurits on his bike! They brought a smile to my face!

Baby Felicia, June 17(2005) so cute!

Maurits is the best looking of the Dutch Princes, in my opinion.

Maurits is the best looking of the Dutch Princes, in my opinion.

I agree also and his family is quite beautiful also. But all of his siblings are attractive with attractive spouses/spouse to be. He is my favorite of Princess Margriet's children.
