Catherine Enters Hospital In Labor,Royal Baby On The Way
As a nation and the world awaited news of a child who could one day sit on the British throne, Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, was experiencing a normal labor on Monday, Kensington Palace said.
The duchess and Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, traveled by car from Kensington Palace to the Lindo Wing at St. Mary's Hospital, his office at Clarence House announced at 7:37 a.m. (2:37 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time.) Kensington Palace issued a progress report about 90 minutes later.
The hospital, next to Paddington Station in London, is where William and his brother Prince Harry were born.
The duchess' mother, Carole Middleton, was expected to be on hand at the hospital.
The baby's name will not be announced when its sex and birth weight are posted on a notice board at Buckingham Palace, a Kensington Palace spokesman said.
It may be announced when the family leaves the hospital, CNN royal correspondent Max Foster reported. Prince William's name was announced a few days after birth, his brother Harry's on departure from hospital.
Some British parents have delayed naming their newborns in recent days in hopes of either copying or avoiding the royal name, he said.
British bookmakers favor the names Alexandra, Charlotte, Elizabeth, Victoria, Grace, James and George. The field is open for both boys' and girls' names because royal sources said the parents did not want to know their child's sex in advance.
The child's title will be His or Her Royal Highness Prince or Princess (the baby's name) of Cambridge, St. James's Palace said this month.
Protocol dictates that the first to know about the arrival of the baby will be Queen Elizabeth II, Prime Minister David Cameron and the governors general of each of the Commonwealth nations -- along with the rest of the royal and Middleton families.
The queen returned to Buckingham Palace Monday from Windsor Castle, another of her official residences. Crowds have been gathering outside the palace gates as news of the birth is awaited.
Meanwhile Monday, on a visit to the city of York, in northern England, Prince Charles was given a gift to pass on to his grandchild by a child among the crowd of well-wishers.
"I'll see what I can do," said Charles, adding that the baby "hasn't quite appeared yet."
British Prime Minister David Cameron sent his "best wishes," to the Duchess of Cambridge during her labor.
"The whole country is excited with them, so everyone is hoping for the best," he said.
Justin Welby, the archbishop of Canterbury and head of the Church of England, tweeted: "My thoughts and prayers are with Kate and the whole family on this enormously special day."
The baby will be third in line for the throne now occupied by the queen. Her son, Charles, will succeed her, followed by his son, William.
