Royal baby countdown: Road closed outside St Mary's hospital in London

There are few things in the world that capture the imagination of the UK public as much as a royal baby, and with the Duchess of Cambridge’s due date just around the corner anticipation is starting to reach fever pitch.

Duchess Kate has already completed her final royal engagement, and in a sign that she might not be too far off, the road outside her birthing hospital has officially been closed.

News.com.au reports there had been rumours she wanted to give birth to her third child at home, but she will instead head to the private wing at St Mary’s Hospital.

It is understood Kate will be giving birth sometime around April 23, and the famous hospital where Prince William and Prince Harry were born is already preparing for the hysteria and vast crowds that are expected to gather in vast crowds.

What are your thoughts? Are you looking forwards to the new royal baby?
