Kate Middleton will sport a baby bump once again.  The confirmation of the Duchess' pregnancy was officially announced on Sept. 8, roughly two months after Prince George turned one year old last July 22.

It's not surprising that, shortly after the announcement, rumors and speculations have begun to spread, including one predicting that Prince George will be having younger twin siblings.  However, the royal couple reportedly expects to have a baby daughter, and that they already have an idea of what they would be calling the little princess, if the baby does in fact  turn out to be a girl.

Daily Mail royal author Andrew Morton claims that the Duke and the Duchess of Cambridge plan to name their daughter Elizabeth Diana Windsor to fulfill their wish to honor the Prince's mother, Princess Diana. The couple, it is said, had talked about girls' names even before Prince George was born, but the two were keen enough not to discard the possible reaction of other royals toward the idea –  it would not be purely positive, it is said, since many family members were allegedly not in very good terms with the late Princess.

Despite the Duchess's severe morning sickness that led to the cancellation of some of her commitments, the most recent of which was at The Clore Art Room at Barlby Primary School last Oct. 1, Kate does not miss out in preparing for her child's arrival. It has been rumored that the Duchess strongly feels and believes that she is carrying a baby girl, and that she already bought her daughter to-be some sets of cute pink dresses. The couple is reportedly preparing to welcome the baby with a special nursery complete with a modern crib, a customary rocking chair and other necessary accessories.

The royals are as excited as the couple to welcome another member into the family. And to make sure that Kate will be in tip-top condition when she returns to perform her royal duties, the palace is monitoring her health, especially the first 12-weeks of her pregnancy.
