I'm voting a girl - it seems to be the trend for the van Vollenhoven brothers to have a daughter as a first-born.

I'm voting girl too. I'll be surprised if their first is a boy! All three of Queen Beatrix's sons have firstborn girls, and both of Pieter's older brothers have firstborn girls. It would be funny though, for him to break that by having a firstborn son!

It would be great if their would break this tradition and have a boy.
But going to the track the other brothers and cousins it will be a girl.

My first gut instinct is a girl. On the two times that I've guessed the sex of a baby, I've been right. Let's see if I'll be right a third time! *crosses her fingers*

I think that they will have a little girl. But I'm not too good in guessing the sez of royal babies, so it may be a boy eventually...:)

I've been a mess at guessing the sex of royal baby's. I didn't guess any of them right since I'm a member of TRF. So I probably be wrong, but I'm still hoping for more boys in the DRF.

Definitely a boy! Because all the others started with a girl this law of the series can´t always go on. And it´s also said that late mothers more often give birth to boys.

Well, I think it will be a girl because most of the Dutch Royals seem to have girls so maybe it's all in the genes.
