I must have missed this succession rule change. Very cool:

Boy or girl, the baby, will be third in the line to the throne, now that Britain's antique rules of royal succession have been changed to allow a first-born girl to succeed even if she later has younger brothers... Shortly after the wedding, hundreds of years of law and tradition were upended when Britain and the 15 Commonwealth countries that recognize the queen as their head of state agreed to get rid of the succession rules that say boys take precedence over girls no matter what their birth order.

It must be frustrating to be expected to get pregnant so quickly after you get married. I enjoyed being married for 5 years before getting pregnant... of course, both my husband and I have older brothers who have two young children- so the pressure was off. And we aren't royalty. I suppose it's par for the course for them.
