Actually,Princess Alice could have given birth prematurely by a couple of weeks to a month (a possibility)

If she gave birth on June 6th, 1872 it was the biginning of the month. Full term would mean she would have gotten pregnant no earlier than October 6th. From October 6th to December 12 is still closer to two months not three. That fetus had to be too small to notice...just a thought. JonC.

First pregnancy, I didn't feel the baby kick until about 18 weeks.

Second, at about 16 weeks.

Third and fourth, at about 13 weeks.

It could even have been a bit of "wishful thinking" on Alice's part.

Or gas (and i am NOT being facetious)

[Finelly]

You are so right, Kimberly.  If one adores having babies and is pregnant as many times as Alice, one will interpret lots of things as having to do with the baby inside you.

I didn't know this, Finelly. Thank you for sharing. To know how a mother feel their babies inside them...Nothing better than asking mothers themselves. And since Alix was not Alice first child, I think it was possible than she could felt Alix kicking inside her, after all.
However, I don't know where Noel read this.

Babies kicking???

I'm going to have to turn back the pages to discover how noses [see subject line] turned into babies.

Bear - you don't KNOW?  Well, it's obvious to the REST of us.....

But since you don't know, we won't tell.  You'll have to figure it out for yourself.

Hopefully, you will do it before babies turn into toenails.....

Greg,

I haven't forgotten the situation. Yesterday I was able to go to the library and put an order in for the books in question and I will get back to this issue as soon as I get them. I have reviewed my notes and so far I stand by what I've said. JonC.

[Finelly]

Well, I got my copy right here, and Greg's citation is correct.  It's right there.....

[lexi4]

Coming in clueless...what citation is correct  

[Finelly]

The one about Alice feeling the baby moving.

[lexi4]

Was this the baby she miscarried or am I on the wrong thread.

[JonC]

Finelly,

Could you ellaborate on what you found? Thanks.JonC.

[Finelly]

I appear to have the same copy of the book that Greg does.  

Greg said:  "The letter is indeed, as I said, quoted on page 175 of Gerard Noel’s “Princes Alice: Queen Victoria’s Forgotten Daughter,” trade paperback edition published by Constable in London in 1985.  You will find it on the first page of Chapter Eleven, page 175, on the 14th line down from the beginning sentence. "

It's right there............
