🤷♀️ I’m not going to the mattresses over it or anything. Just saying it makes sense to me. I’m sure the Queen knows.

Just here for roll call. Our house got hit by a tornado last night (it's not completely destroyed but it's not great) so I am busy with insurance and spotty cell reception so OF COURSE she had that baby today. Oh My God Are you guys ok?? Do you need anything?? (I mean, obvs, but really) We are good but thank you! A couple places in my city got it worse than I did. It was just a little baby tornado, it absolutely could have been worse. We'll have to get our roof fixed and we lost a bunch of trees but nothing that can't be fixed/replaced.

But...why do we care about the signing? I am struggling on this one. I just want to see pics of the baby. Sorry midwives/doc, I nocurr who you are. 🤷♀️ Just because it’s really strange. You guys don’t have to care.

I actually complained to the Steak ‘n Shake complaint hotline after lunch today, so I’ve got no fight left in my anyway. 😂

I’m just trying to bring you all the news. This is why I never mentioned the moon bump. I figured it would be this sort of thing.

IMO I think Meghan had doulas/midwives attend the birth. They didn’t sign the thing bc some people would be “OMG, why wasn’t a doctor there??? That’s not safe for a royal baby???? How dare she????”

Confirmed: Prince Harry WILL go The Hague, Netherlands on Thursday as planned. Meghan will be at home with the baby - mum Doria is there too.
There is so much going on this week!!! We are going to be in royal overdrive!

But no tornadoes here! Could be worse. Enjoy parenthood, M&H! It’s so joyful.

Maternity leave in an English country cottage in spring and summer sounds rather lovely.
Take the ol pram out for a little stroll of the gardens. Afternoon tea. Scones.
I need to move.

I wasn't trying to bash and i would have listened about the moon bump. I guess that I have turned into a Meghan fan not even because I think she is super sincere, but just because I feel bad for her and all of the constant eye roll that comes with EVERYTHING she does.

Personally I would lump the fake pregnancy people into a similar group as the Barack Obama birthers and I don't think they deserve any notice or attention.

I think we're all OK with not hearing the weird often racist conspiracy theories about Meghan. I wouldn't necessarily consider that "news". Yes I know, which is why no moon bump was mentioned. I see and wade through a lot of bullshit and try to bring the best. The unsigned birth announcement is strange in a for real protocol sort of way. Generally there is someone there to verify because this baby is for real in the line of succession. The signature is usually there to verify it. It’s old school, yeah, but really very normal. It is noteworthy.

Doria must be so excited! Such a special time for her, I'm so happy Meghan can have her mother with her.
I would love to see their nursery!

Like yes Will's kids would have to be shown, but Harry's kids wont even be a Prince or Princess.

The constant eye roll is pretty standard for Royal women. The York’s, Kate, they ALL get shit shoveled at them. Meghan is getting the most as of late because she’s fresh meat (and extra racism on top.)

Does “moon bump” come from man on moon conspiracy theories? Probably yes, but out of context “moon bump” makes me laugh—it feels like an accurate description of how pregnancy bumps feel,, complete with little alien inside.
