Crown Princess Mary, Crown Prince Frederik and their newborn twins have left Rigshospitalet via a walk 'n talk with the press and also greeted hospital patients, staff and members of the public who gathered to see them at a little after 3:30pm Denmark time. Mary carried the little prince and Frederik carried the little princess. This blogger has to say that Prince Henrik's humour needs some

As they did with Christian and Isabella, Mary and Frederik will leave through the foyer at Rigshospitalet past the arrayed media. It will not be a drawn out departure, probably not much more than 10 minutes, and the media has already been asked to keep the noise

As reported, the Crown Prince Couple will leave the hospital with the twins in the late afternoon tomorrow (Friday). It has been speculated in the press that the twins may have been jaundiced, which is very common among twins and premature babies. Chief Obstetrician Morten Hedegaard said the twins were born early at the press conference last Saturday. He said they had been due towards the end of

This is no doubt a good thing since it should be the health of the twins and their mother which determines the media schedule, not the other way around. Billed Bladet reports that at 9:30

After the excitement of the birth of the twins, news has slowed down as we wait to find out when the Crown Prince Couple will leave hospital with the newborn babies. Ekstra Bladet reports that the hospital foyer might be mistaken for a painter's conference because of the 30 or so step ladders crowding the area. The media organisations and photographers set up step ladders for the best vantage

After a long and eventful day at Rigshospitalet, Crown Princess Mary had some relative calm and rest on Saturday night, with Crown Prince Frederik by her side, reported Billed Bladet and B.T. Prince Christian and Princess Isabella have visited Mary and the twins, but did so through a

Crown Prince Frederik has appeared at the traditional post birth press conference with the same elation we witnessed when Prince Christian and Princess Isabella were born, but 'times two'. Chief Obstetrician Dr Morten Hedegaard said the birth started spontaneously, it was around 5 hours long and Crown Princess Mary did very very well to give birth without complications. He said it was a ”

The Queen said the twins are not so big but are very fine and all in the family are very happy. Normally the Queen is a bit reserved with the press, but today she was a radiant and proud grandmother. The Queen's visit lasted about an hour and she spoke to the press afterwards. "They are not so big but very fine ... We are all very pleased, all of us in the family... and the parents are feeling

It appears Mary's delivery was natural, no caesarian, and she was told she would be due at the end of January, so they have arrived early as is typical for twins.
