Kate Middleton pregnancy update: Duchess takes Prince George to the zoo as hospital prepares for media surge

Kate Middleton's due date is nearing and everyone concerned is busy with the preparations to welcome Prince George's little brother or sister. A surge in media coverage is expected and St. Mary's Hospital is already gearing up for that. 

For one, the private hospital's Lindo Wing where the Duchess of Cambridge will be meeting royal baby number two has already set up parking limits. In the next days to come, it is expected that the place will demarcate the positions photographers, reporters and camera crews will take up during their reporting. 

While everyone is prepping for the big moment, Kate chose to take young George to the zoo. The pregnant duchess spent some quality time with the adorable 21-month-old toddler at a farm and petting zoo called Snettisham Park, which is not that far away from their home in Anmer Hall. 

According to Hello Magazine, Prince George quickly made friends with the other children at the zoo as they explored the place, fed a pig, and visited the gift shop where he reportedly saw cute toys like a stuffed horse, a cow, a pig, and a duck. The duchess even had Prince George imitate the sounds of the animals shown to him, and the aforementioned magazine reported that the cute little tot particularly loved the duck among others. 

Meanwhile, the world is expecting to see a royal princess in one or two weeks. Many believe that Kate being drawn to girl clothes and the pink paint orders are a dead giveaway. 

As for the due date, some are reporting that the baby will be here by April 25, four days prior to Kate and Prince William's fourth wedding anniversary. Others say that everyone should be on the lookout starting April 15 as the baby may arrive that early.

For now, Kate and the palace are still mum about the whole thing so the world is left to wait, which will not be that long.
