Zara and Mike Tindall Expecting A Baby

[contessa]

My daughter lost a little girl at 25 weeks. With her next pregnancy she waited until she passed that mark to announce her pregnancy to friends even though family knew. She said it was scary until that 25th week passed and things were still going well. So I am wondering if they did the same..

The DF is basing it on 'people announce at three months'

Zara was around four months when she announced her last pregnancy. No reason to think she would announce earlier this time. The fact she miscarried a few weeks later, makes it even more unlikely she announced at 3 months. I am starting to lean more towards she may be closer to 5 months pregnant. If she announced at 4 months and miscarried 2 weeks later, that will be in the back of her head IMO.

I think she’s due in May, maybe even late April. After what happened last year, she wouldn’t announce before her 4th month and probably would wait even longer if possible, imo.



Anyway, she and Mike usually don’t keep her due date a secret, so we should know well in advance.

I think late April, too. Lovely news. Happy for them.

I’m predicting it’s a boy so Anne will finally have a grandson, and born on his mother’s birthday.

I guess a baby boy with Philip or Phillips in his name:
Jack Phillips Tindall
Philip Arthur Tindall

If a girl:
Jane Lucy
Rose Matilda

I like Jack Tindall, and Jane Tindall.

As Mike's father is called Philip - I'm choosing Philip for a boy.

For a girl, I think Lucy.

Re post #68 there was a girl in my class called Jane Tindall. Tall thin with the most amazing mop of curly hair. :)

I would prefer a boy.... like that they would get one of each sort.... but as long as the baby is healthy..... another little Mia would be great too !!!!

After seeing photos of Zara today, I’m going to bet on an early May birth and another girl. Although wouldn’t it be funny if she gave birth before Kate?

Name guesses:
Jack or Leo for a boy and Lily or Ava for a girl, with honoring middle names.

Me too! Although the Daily Express still thinks she is having a summer baby and is 3 months behind Kate

I have never thought this was a summer baby. I think the only reason they announced Zara's pregnancy was that she was in Australia for press and it was noticeable. I think she was 4 1/2 +months along at that time. I expect both her and Kate to have babies in April - maybe early May. Could be one more reason why H&M went later into the month of May for the wedding. I hope one of the babies is a boy.... George needs a close cousin/ brother.

For a daughter: Stephanie
For a son: Douglas

I feel like the press is off with both these pregnancies. They both look farther along. I guess we shall see. I hope Zara has a little boy.

Well, Kate is definitely due in April. However, there is a big difference between April 1st and April 30th.

The Tindalls haven’t said anything about her due date, we can only guess based on photos and previous events.

And ultimately babies have a mind of their own and might come early or late (as both George and Charlotte did).

Guesses for names (at which i'm notoriously bad):
Boy: Ben
Girl: Evie

[Osipi]

Off the wall suggestions for this wee one.

Girl: Cara

Reminds me for some reason of the old tune by Jay and the Americans "Cara Mia"

Boy: Marcus

In honor of Zara's dad, Mark.

[MichelleQ2]

If Zara and Mike have a boy I do think Philip will be one of the names... it is Zara's grandfather, Mike's father and Zara's maiden name. Philip seems a bit traditional for the Tindalls as a first name - but i could see it as a middle name.

[QueenPenny]

I'm terrible at this, but I think Zara will have a boy and agree that Philip will be a part of the name.
