Princess Letizia is Pregnant - Countdown to the birth

[hillary_nugent]

lol...reading the heading got me excited for a minute!!! it would be very interesting if she did have twins... =]

 

[igilmo]

I agree with the opinion that it is a rumour... here in Spain we've been listening to lots of similar rumours ever since it was announced she was pregnant. Want to hear about another rumour? It is said that Letizia visited a specialised doctor in the south east coast because she had some "problems" for getting pregnant... it is said she had to get "fertilisation in vitro" or that she had to get her ovaries "readjusted" in order to get pregnant... I don't know if I made myself understood

These are also rumours, as well as the fact that if she got "fertilised" the baby she is expecting is for sure a boy... so, imagine whatever you want to imagine... we'll be hearing these kind of rumours up till the moment she gives birth to the baby and I guess that even after that
Nevertheless, it would be nice if she had twins

 

[lula]

The "journalists" get bored very much and things are invented to refill their programs of television. But how always the time it puts the things in his site place. As for the sex of the baby, every week changes!

On the other hand, it of the twins I believe that it is something that there have invented the same journalists who said it of the treatment, to justify itself. To say that they had reason.
Though in the Spanish Royal Family there are no precedents, we do not know if in that of Letizia they are or not.

 

[Elsa M.]

Casa Real has no information about it. Princess Letizia said, in several occasions, that they don't want to know the sex of the baby, until it's born, but she knows for sure she's not expecting twins.
So, it's useless to go through these speculations...

 

[lula]

In November we will see it, and this will be ended.

Certainly, I have looked for curiosity at the weight and measurements of the children of the Infantas, they all have overcome 3,500 kilos and have measured more than 50 cm. The children of Bruno and BeTRFán Gómez -Acebo have weighed more than 4 kilos. So if the baby goes out to the family of his father he will be big.

 

[Ariel]

Well, we will see. it is strange that a tv channel will comment on rumors, but it can always happens. The good thing is that soooner or later we will know.

 

[mtbcm]

I remember seeing a gorgeous look of Infanta Cristina at some awards and thinking "She looks so slim!" and next thing I see is a picture (she was dressing in red) at an official event with the Kings and she had a big bump. I even recall of reading here in the forum that people say that when the bump grows so fast it means that the mother is expecting a boy.

(See Isabella's post in this thread http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4412&page=1&pp=20)

Some months later "Here's Irene!".

The main thing is that Letizia lives an healthy pregnancy and an healthy delivery .

Regards.

In 1ª photo Infant Cristina goes dressed black and in a jacket, in the other with a jersey of point (that always marks plus the figure), I imagine that for that reason the difference notices. As far as the red dress that you comment, that was several weeks later.
If you later see the photo of Letizia dressed black in the embassy and with the yellow suit, also it seems that there is a change and are photos of the same day.
On how knowing if she is boy or girl, many things are said, on the form of the belly, the face of the mother... not the trustworthy thing that will be those predictions. And with respect to this, I have read in opposition to whom Isabella says; when a woman is pregnant of a girl is uglier of face and with worse skin, it has some relation with hormones.

 

[Ariel]

Well, in general one can prefers boy or girl, for several reasons, but when it comes to the first child, I think most agree that boy or girl is ok the same. In the case of a royal family where male descendant comes first, it can be better to have a boy, but in this particular case, the government has expressed their wish to change constitution and permit a girl to be heir to the throne. So i guess it is the same in whatever case. The most important thing is that both baby (or babies) and the mother are fine and healthy.

Much better if they have one baby and not twins, as it can bring differences between them right from the very beginning.

 

[lula]

I believe that it is all the same to them, and for what they say they prefer not knowing it until he is born, probably in order that Letizia could be calmer.
But given the situation they will be calmer if he is a boy. If she is a girl the politicians were using to say that it is necessary to change the Constitution, for it it is necessary to do elections ... it is an a bit complicated process, of which the politicians will want to extract something. It is very sad, but it is like that, because of it I believe that it would be better that he was a boy, because this way there would be no discussion and they might be calmer.

 

[Ariel]

Yes, I agree with your point Lula. People puts lots of unnecessary stress over Letizia and do not appreciate the good work she is doing. Spaniards should be happy of the way she is evolving and how she is doing as a princess. For sure much better than many born princesses.

Letizia and Mary looks like doing very good with their pregnancies. This is really a baby boom year for the royal houses.

From Hello:
http://www.hellomagazine.com/royalty/specials/babyboom05/pagina_5_1.html

Due date: November 2005
In early May 2005, just two weeks short of the royal couple's first anniversary, the big news was finally made public – the crown prince and princess were expecting their first child. In a statement, King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofia expressed their "great happiness" at the prospect of welcoming their seventh grandchild that November.

 

[Australis]

Yes, I agree with your point Lula. People puts lots of unnecessary stress over Letizia and do not appreciate the good work she is doing. Spaniards should be happy of the way she is evolving and how she is doing as a princess. For sure much better than many born princesses.

Helloooo!!!! what good work? I do not think she is doing any work at all. Walking around, showing-off a new dress every time with a new set of shoes and handbags is not work, that is call ........... showing-off

 

[Synnadene]

It's true, that Letizia is ill, and the baby is in danger??????? I was read it in:Neue Post, Freizeit Revue, Frau Aktuell.... It's only a rumour??

I am tired of those evil news of the German press that in their life have seen Letizia, nor know nothing of her. Letizia is perfectly, with the normal problems of a pregnancy. You have seen her photos in Palma de Mallorca? You have seen the activities that have made the last months? She has a wonderful aspect and one is very active, symptom of which is nor no the minimum problem. They do just like when published that she had anorexy, one more a lie, because simply one is a very thin woman, and if somebody sees photos of hersisters realizes of which all is equal.
It is seen that when anybody does not give that to speak, she makes her work and she maintains a paper discreet is necessary to invent things to attack her. Perhaps if she counted her life in the magazines and exhibited as a model so many things of her would not be invented.

Yeah, sure
That's so true as all their previous headlines...
Would you like to laugh? By a German Magazine, and you have it for granted:
- Who wants to destroy their luck? Common betrayal of princess Letizia
- Letizia: Felipe's secret place of love with the mistress: Poor Letizia! Felipe should never leave Eva Samun!!
- Letizia: she threatens the same fate as Princess Diana!!
- Terrible: Felipe & Letizia of Spain: a family tragedy threatens their luck!!
- Letizia: just skinny. Felipe is afraid of her life
- Look out: after suffering an abortion she is pregnant!!
- Letizia: twins because of miracle hormones!!

I feel it, to my does not do grace to me. Frivolizan with those things, that are very serious, and creates a false image of Letizia. I do not understand this persistence in doing damage to her, the poor woman must badly pass it enough with these things, because she knows perfectly what she is published or she said on her. It is a despicable press, neither they are journalists nor they are nothing, because they only invent lies. I only hope that Letizia continues acting since there is heco until now, thus will be able to close many mouths.

 

[Incas]

Perhape the Germans are jealous because they don't have a royal family for their "press" to feast on.

Letizia's belly transformation

Hello Everyone,

It is interesting to follow how Princess Letizia's belly is growing.
Please attach as many new pictures of her as you can!
I can't wait to find out the sex of the baby!

 

[Roshanah]

This kind of media speculation is probably the biggest drawback for a royal wife to deal with. Of course, everyone is naturally very curious and interested in expectant royals, but sometimes people go too far and become too prying and personal IMHO. I'm sure neither Felipe nor Letizia care if the baby is a boy or girl, as long as it's healthy and Letizia herself comes through with no complications.

Well said!

 

[Roshanah]

It is a lie, she herself has denied this news, if she herself was waiting twins it had been said. Poor Letizia, not embarrassed they leave her alone with so many rumors. Now as her belly it has grown very much turned to the rumor. When it is something normal if you think that in the family Borbón the majority of the babies are big

It's discsting that reporters can't even get their facts straight! Also Dona Letizia is expecting her first Child, one shold be happy for that and pray that all is right with her and baby. Instead the press just want to sell papers, they're not goin' to sell faster boys so listen up---------Get your facts straight and leave Los Principes de Asturias alone. It's a blessing, not an excuse to cash in a buy a Villa in Andalucia. Have some respect Reporters!

 

[Roshanah]

It's true, that Letizia is ill, and the baby is in danger??????? I was read it in:Neue Post, Freizeit Revue, Frau Aktuell.... It's only a rumour??

No it isn't darned jounalists can't get the facts straight. I read in Hola a few weeks ago she's fine and saw pictures to that effect. It's nasty when the health rumours mill have started and they don't feel one bit ashamed of themselves, the press that it

Too true, they exhiled theirs. WEll soz Germans you can't change your mind and serves you right for getting rid of them. he he he

 

[grevinnan]

These magazines will keep writing their outrageous stories as long as people buy them and even quote them in discussion forums. Ignore them and they will wither away.

Unibet, an operator specialized in sport events, started offering the possibility of obtaining an extraordinary income by guessing the sex, the height and the weight of the first-born of the Princes of Asturias.

Here's the link of it, in case you want to bet yourselves:

The princes of Asturias follow if to know if the son who will be born in November is a boy or a girl



Four months of the lighting, Felipe de Borbón and Letizia Ortiz they follow without knowing if the son who will be born in the month of November is small or small, in agreement with its will of not finding out previously. In fact, as it is had counted in ECD, they have given to instructions the gynecologist so that does not communicate it.



According to sources of the surroundings of the pair, Letizia Ortiz is "very well", and the prince is very contented. The photographies that have taken them these days in Asturian earth are reflected of it. The princes continue their stay in Asturian earth, the house of the grandmother, Menchu Alvarez of the Valley, and is also safe that they will attend in Ribadesella the inauguration of the street that the locality is going to dedicate to Letizia Ortiz.

An article about the pregnancy and future heir.

The final straight line of the pregnancy of Doña Letizia takes in silence

In hardly two months Princess de Asturias will give light. The event, widely hoped, is taken in great secret. In the surroundings near Zarzuela they are even made quinielas.

6 of September of 2005. Doña Letizia will leave accounts in November and, as soon as to two Vista months, the absolute mutismo surrounds all the related one to the pregnancy by the Princess of the Asturias. The general tonic in these cases, that already it has followed with Infants Doña Elena and Doña Cristina, is had to the maximum extreme with respect to the wife of Don Felipe.

The norm consists of which the sex of the babies of the Royal Family is only made public once the mothers have given light. It happens, nevertheless, that in this occasion neither the intimate circle the more of the Zarzuela, according to seems, has received "unofficial" information on the sex of which it can be inheriting to the Throne of Spain.

In that sense, next to the habitual behavior in these situations of the Zarzuela, also there is heavy all the "noise" that has been generated around the pregnancy of Doña Letizia. History has been a length culebrón, since in several occasions the state of the Princess was indicated, with the corresponding denial on the part of the Real House.

At the moment, few data are those that are known, and all it is necessary to take them with precaution. Doña Letizia, in spite of her state, is well, solely with the normal annoyances of the women encintas. Like chosen center to give light, the International has been indicated to the Ruber Clinic. But the doubts will not dissipate until the wished day of November arrives, the same month in that public became the commitment between the pair, of that this year will turn the second anniversary.

After all, from the 30 of January of 1968, in that the then Princess of Spain, Doña Sofía, gave to light to Don Felipe in the Clinic of Our Mrs. of Loreto, Spain has not returned to register the birth of another heir. Although also this could change if the expectations augured by the president of the Government are fulfilled, Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, with respect to the succession to the Throne, that it would include to the women in equal conditions that to the men.

 

[LaChicaMadrilena]

It can be a bit out of topic, but what do you think: how many kids will they have? During the engagement ceremony Felipe said, that they wont to have less than 5. And you, what do you think?
