Kate Middleton could be having her fourth baby by the end of 2020. Bookies across London said that the odds are raised after the Duchess of Cambridge opened up about hypnobirthing in a recent interview.
Ladbrokes revealed that the odds of the Kate announcing her fourth pregnancy is now at 8/11. Previously, bettors speculated that Kate would be pregnant again at the same time as her sister-in-law Meghan Markle and cousin Princess Eugenie.
Though Kate herself admitted that Prince William does not seem to want more children, she was more open about her previous pregnancies in a Happy Mum Happy Baby podcast. The Duchess of Cambridge said that she enjoyed labor more because of hypnobirthing. Her experience during labor was a far cry when she was in the first few months of her pregnancy since she suffered from extreme morning sickness.
According to Siobhan Miller of Positive Birth Company, hypnobirthing makes pregnant moms more relaxed and empowered during the birth of their child. More often than not, women in labor often feel the trauma thus many don't want to get pregnant again.
However, the outcome of labor was encouraging for Kate, thanks to this birthing technique. Thus, it will not be surprising to learn she could be pregnant with baby number four despite her experience with hyperemesis gravidarum.
The Duchess of Cambridge said in the interview that she was taught to mediate and do deep breathings during labor. It helped her sail through the process better compared to when she was mostly sick and bedridden during her pregnancy.
She said that hyponobirthing helped her to be more control of her baby's birth when she could not do anything to her extreme morning sickness. She used the technique for all of her three pregnancies.
Kate also said that it was a choice she didn't consult with anyone including Prince William. She said that hynobirthing was something she wanted to do for herself.
Meanwhile, royal fans have been anticipating Kate's fourth pregnancy since Prince Louis is almost two years old. The two older Cambridge children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, are also growing into their own persons and will be seven and five years old respectively this year.
With her kids growing up, Kate seems to be missing having a baby in the house. However, she also said in the interview that she suffers from mommy guilt since she also has her royal duties to focus on. A fourth baby could be a handful for the Cambridge household.
