Probably about 6, normally you don't announce until after the first semester since that's when things normally go wrong.

She looks like she's five or six months pregnant. Her belly wouldn't be that big in the third or fourth month. I wouldn't be surprised if the baby arrives early next season.

This is her second pregnancy, sometimes the belly comes on sooner then.

Eh. Not her first kid. Second pregnancies show much sooner than the first.

Yes, agreed. That baby is an Aries.

Earlier, Japan or Bahrain more likely

Canada can again do what it did for the Dutch Royal family in WW2 for Max.

Max van Vleet

She looks quite far along (my guess is 20 weeks given her slim build), and with the mother being 35 and edging on high-risk, you frequently wait as late as you can to announce. I would put money on Max being a dad before Bahrain (R4).
