The British Royal Family announced that their second baby is due in April 2015 on Monday.

There are no reports of the sex of the baby. However, a British online betting company, Ladbrokes shows that many people are split between whether or not the new baby will be a boy or a girl. There are also bets for twins, triplets and quintuplets.

Regardless of the sex, their new bundle of joy will be fourth in line to the British throne. Because of a change in the law, women now have the same rights of succession to the throne as men. If they have a girl, she will be next in line after Prince George even if more little brothers are to come after her. The law was changed after there were over 10 attempts to change the succession laws in the Commonwealth countries.

For the second time, former Kate Middleton is suffering from hyperemesis gravidarum, a sickness where mothers have severe nausea and vomiting. This condition usually occurs when a mother is carrying more than one baby. She suffered from acute pregnancy with Prince George early in her pregnancy and gave birth in July 2013 even though many were hoping for royal twins.

A few public engagements had to be canceled because of Catherine's condition as she and her husband announced her pregnancy earlier than the usual 12-week period for the palace. On Monday, it was announced that she was getting better.

Future uncle Prince Harry will be knocked down to the fifth in line as the succession follows: Prince Charles, Prince William, Prince George and then the new baby. Under the old succession laws, the heir to the throne was the first-born son of the monarch, regardless of how many daughters were born before him. The only exception was if there were no sons born at all.
