Crown Princess Máxima - Current Events Part 7 (Apr-Jun 2007)

[saphills]

I think it's Alexia in that picture.

[Henri M.]

Yes, it is Princess Máxima and her youngest daughter Princess Alexia.

According to De Telegraaf (see article) there was some excitement in front of the Bronovo Hospital in The Hague: the municipality has placed fences around the hospital. And cars with AA-numberplates have been seen around the hospital.

The Rijksvoorlichtingsdienst denied that the fences were ordered by the Royal House. The municipality of The Hague stated that the fences in front of the hospital have nothing to do with the royal family.

AA-numberplates are exclusively used by the Royal Household Services.

Must be Alexia, I'm pretty sure.

I've seen the picture and I also think it's Alexia. The little one is walking good but in an unsure manner, IMO. She doesn't seem quite as sure on her feet as Amalia does. But Amalia is older so that's to be expected. But little Alexia has definitely changed. From a far like this she's resembling her older sister more and more.

It is Alexia, there is a picture of Maxima and Amalia but that was when Amalia was younger.

Wow, that sounds quite exciting!

[TLLK]

I still think that this baby will arrive within the next two weeks. I'm glad that the family could enjoy a nice springtime outing together.

Maybe even in a week,or a wee bit over.

Gorgeous pic! On the web-log it says that it is Alexia in the photo Maxima looks quite ready to give birth, maybe this week? The fences at the hospital are a good give-away to the anticipated birth date

[soCal girl]

I can't believe Maxima is still able to walk around let alone stand. She looks like she is about to give birth any second now!

Beautiful picture of Maxima and Alexia.
Quick question, because I've not long taken an interest in the Dutch royals, can somebody tell me, when the new baby is born will the name be released straight away or do the couple tend keep it quiet for a while?
Thanks

The two previous times the baby was born on a Sunday and the names were announced on Tuesday:
that was when the Prince registered his daughters at the City Hall.

They wait 3 days (Within 3 days a baby has to be 'reported' to the state)

[ladybelline]

The two previous times the baby was born on a Sunday

So maybe we'll get some news today! Princess Maxima really looks like ready to "pop"!

[Empress]

The name is generally released within 3 days officially, but as has happened the last few times, the name was "leaked" slighly before the official ceremony in the "gemeentehuis" or city hall.

[lilytornado]

I agree Máxima looks very big, but springlike with her green coat and happy and lovely. Alexia is getting so big and cute. I hope for a picture of all three children with their parents when the new baby is there. Alexia's hair is really growing long, but of course, she is not a baby anymore.

Princess Máxima stop her official events because of her pregnancy. LA PRINCESA MÁXIMA CANCELA SU AGENDA EN LA RECTA FINAL DE SU EMBARAZO

[Aurora810]

Alright I figured that is what it was Henri. The darn speed of the internet.

I guess I would also think that out of courtesy the web-logs and other sites might remove it. Although if they had many of us wouldn't have seen it.
