Kate Middleton stepped out in Norwich, England, today in support of East Anglia's Hospices' Norfolk Capital Appeal, and once again she raised eyebrows with a bright red dress and a teased ponytail. We recently told you that Middleton has been attempting to sex up her style just a little bit by making purposefully different choices every time she walks out the door. Middleton's plan has definitely been working, as no one would accuse her of looking the least bit dowdy. She also is not looking very pregnant either, and it is starting to concern those around her.
Middleton is approximately 18 weeks pregnant, and as you can see from today's photos, she barely has any baby bump. Obviously, her extended battle with morning sickness has likely prevented the duchess from gaining weight consistently this time around — at least so far. Middleton was relatively small when she delivered Prince George in July 2013, so she may not be the kind of woman who will put on a lot of pregnancy pounds.
This time around is different, though, because she is also chasing after George, something that is not an easy task when she is already feeling rundown and drained.
In recent weeks, Middleton has also returned to her somewhat busy schedule of royal appearances. She was sidelined for nearly eight weeks, so once Middleton was feeling even a little better the pressure was on for her to return to her royal duties. There have been questions as to whether or not there is too much pressure and expectation being placed on Prince William's wife right now, and it is causing her to not take the best possible care of herself.
Do you think Middleton is like any other woman who has to work through her pregnancy, or are the royals perhaps putting too much pressure on her? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below.
