After you've given birth and

you're in your little cocoon with your new family.

Yeah, it was slightly terrifying. I'm not going to lie.

Were you like, switching the telly, go

"Oh, no. They're covering us as well. They're stood outside."

No, it's hard to like decompartmentalise. What's the word?

- Compartmentalise? - Compartmentalise, yes.

The whole thing. Because, you know,

everyone had been so supportive.

Both William and I were really conscious that, you know, this was sort of

something that everyone was excited about.

And we were hugely grateful for all the support

that the public had shown us. And actually, for us to

be able to share that joy and

appreciation with the public I felt

was really important, but equally

it was coupled with

a newborn baby and sort of inexperienced parents

and the uncertainty about what that held.

So there was all sorts of sort of mixed emotions and—

How I was after giving birth did you come out?

Oh, my gosh. I can't remember. Everything was a bit of a blur.

I think I stayed, I did stay in hospital overnight.

I remember it was one of the hottest day and night, with huge thunderstorms.

go back to how it was.

I totally underestimated

the impact and the change it had on our lives.

from that moment really and I think unless you've

got children

you don't realise no amount of planning and

preparation can get you ready for that moment.

I can remember just

sitting and watching and waiting for you to come out of the hospital.

And it was that massive feeling of celebration.

And also, the Duke when he put Prince George

in the car, that was seamless.

But people didn't really think so at the time.

What do we do? He's in a sort, in a swaddle.

How's this supposed to work?

He even tried to practice with a little baby

doll at home.

But you know, it just never works out the way you've planned it.

It was quite hard to do that, I think, on the world stage.

But I think he did a very good job.

Was there like a sigh of relief when you actually got in the car

and drove off?

But also, you're driving away with a newborn baby. It's the most—

I've heard stories about mums who sort of

and didn't want to touch it.

Because they're worried about they were going to do the wrong thing
