Unfortunately, according to this post by Lula, Laura Ponte is not pregnant. It was just a "pregnancy of paper." She says that she would like to wait a bit longer before having another child

yep- the similarities just keep happening.

Get this:
Mary and Frederik, and Letizia and Felipe announced their engagements within a month of each other (F&M- October 8)(F&L- November 1)
they married exactly one week apart, May 14 (f&M) and May 22 (F&L)
they announced their first pregnancies within two weeks of one another (M- April 25)(L-May 8)
they both gave birth within a month (Christian, born Oct 15) (Leonor, born Oct 31)
they both gave birth just before the second anniversary of their engagement announcements (Mary gave birth a week earlier than her announcement, Letizia, a day before)
their first born children were Christened one week apart (this time Leti, and Leonor, were first, on January 14th, Christian was Christened on January 21st)
They announced their second pregnancies one month and one day apart (Letizia on September 25, 2006, and Mary on October 26, 2006)
They are now expecting their second children, who will both be born in May.

That is pretty weird LadyK, but I guess it's pure coincidence. I'm not superstitious or anything.

All these similarities make me think that Royal Houses have "timetables" for a lot of things.

Yes, it is an interesting thought about timetables. There are quite a few similarities, at least for Denmark and Spain. Not sure about the other royal families. Norway especially always seems to do there own thing. I recently noticed that Haakon and Mette-Marit were married in 2001 but Ingrid wasn't born until early 2004. Whereas most other royal couples have had their firstborns rather soon after getting married.

Kraft, Hereditary Prince of Hohenlohe-Oehringen, and his wife, Carolin, had their first child, Chrisitan Kraft, on 16 January.

And no, I'm not guessing, nor can I see the future. According to CBB, Princess Kalina, with her husband, Kitin Munoz, will have a scheduled C-Section on March 12, in Sofia.

They are having a baby girl. This was confirmed by his grandmother to hola magazine, and she also said that the baby's name will not be Carmen, as so many women in their family have that name. From CBB.

Another Update:

The Earl and Countess of Ulster are expecting their first baby! The child, who will be the first child for Alexander Windsor and his wife Claire, is due in the Spring. This will be the first grandchild for the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, parents of the father-to-be. A son will be titled Lord Culloden, while a daughter will be titled Lady (name) Windsor.
From CBB

I thought Lady Davina had a kid-or maybe stepkids- but I guess not.

No, you are right - her husband has a son from a previous relationship.

They got married really close together. They were both 'older' brides so they most likely felt an urgency to start their family...and they wanted an heir an a spare asap. They allowed a bit of recovery time in-between pregnancies.
