Princess Máxima, Current Events 3 (October 2006 - April 2007)

[TLLK]

I agree that she looks fresh and radiant today.

 

[MissSaga]

Indeed. I believe Princess Máxima will stop with her public appearances in the second week of April.

Isn't that pretty much when she's going into labour?

 

[Verde Esmeralda]

I noticed that her skin looks much much better, she doesn't have that dark brown/orange in her cheecks, did something or found right foundation/blush
she looks so radiant and happy

yes, fortunately she listened to my prayers and stopped the blush - craze

regarding the date, i thought she would be giving birth in the first two weeks of april..

Thanks Lucien, do you know hat this project is about?

I must say again that Maxima seems rather busy, despite her pregnancy, thumbs up for that. i even forgive her the coat repetiton, so soon

Nice to see Ronald Plasterk there to, the new minister of education. Maxima is meeting the new gov. officials in a rapid pace, last week she enjoyed the company of Maxime Verhagen and Maria van der Hoeven, and now Plasterk and Donner...

Hi Marengo!

The project was initiated by the PAVEM commision of which the Princess was a member.

Het Koninklijk Huis



She still is rather busy isn't she?In Istanbul last week she stated she would continue to work until shortly before the delivery,all OK if she feels up to it.Her agenda has functions till early april,with or without wearing her most comfortable recycled attire..grin.The brooch is new tho......

About the government members,don't know if she "enjoys" (all of-) their company or is plain stuck up with them....

Now now, we have to stay positive Lucien, so let's assume she enjoys them all, though 4 days with the Limbourgian accents of Verhagen and van der Hoeven must have been such a trial (sorry Henri M )

And Watcher you are right, I assume the lady in the tunic on Maxima's right is Ella Vogelaar (Integration), and next to her a new secretary of state to <Jet Bussemaker?)

 

[dazzling]

Maxima looks wonderful today.Im glad that she wore that outfit again and without the hat, its a great suit

 

[LadyS]

Maxima seems to be exceptionally busy. I don't see any engagements for her after 16 March (unless they haven't been put up on the calendar yet) so maybe she will be going on maternity leave soon.

She is looking very big and carrying quite low. So there might be a baby in early April rather than later in the month (pure supposition of course)

 

[LadyK]

Didn't she just wear that coat the other day? I still think it's pretty, and I love the brooch, but repeating so soon that I recognize it?

 

[Jackswife]

She looks really wonderful to be in advanced pregnancy but I'm guessing she will soon have to really start taking things easy. Second, third, fourth babies sometimes come pretty fast and I'm sure she wants to be rested up beforehand.

yes she did March 2, 2007. Maybe she doesnt want to get new cloths since she has a month left of her pregnancy, or wearing what fits till she needs to get new things. though i dont mind it, its great piece.I like the brooch it gives it a great touch, dont you think ?
this is a great picture

thats ture, i think shell start slowing down when she thinks she can no longer carry on & she has been working quit hard lately so who can blame her. her next event is on March 15 & 16, but sometimes things on the calender just pop up

maxima look radiant! sure that baby will be a big baby!

what a wonderful photo! she's glowing. i didnt like this outfit very much when she wore it in Turkey with the hat but I do really like it here. especially with that gorgeous borach.

 

[HMQueenElizabethII]

I'd agree as well.When i saw the pics on PPE Agency, she looked much better this time without the hat, i could not say why, but the hat just does not match there.

[Princess_Beatrix]

CP Maxima will continue working until 2-nd April (two weeks before birth).

she's really busy! How long will she stay away from official duties after the birth?

 

[Marengo]

I don't think that that is already announced. But the court did already say that she will NOT attend Queensday on april 30th.

How long is the usual marenity leave in The Netherlands btw?

How long is the usual marenity leave in The Netherlands btw?

About 6 weeks before birth and about 10 weeks after it, I thought.
