The Daily Telegraph has compiled a list of the Duchess of Cambridge's best quotes on pregnancy and motherhood.
"Having a baby is a life-changing moment."
"Becoming a mother has been such a rewarding and wonderful experience. However, at times it has also been a huge challenge."
"Nothing can really prepare you for the sheer, overwhelming experience of what it means to become a mother."
"[Motherhood] is full of complex emotions of joy, exhaustion, love, and worry, all mixed together."
"Your fundamental identity changes overnight. You go from thinking of yourself as primarily an individual, to suddenly being a mother, first and foremost."
"Parenting is tough."
"My parents taught me about the importance of qualities like kindness, respect, and honesty, and I realise how central values like these have been to me throughout my life. That is why William and I want to teach our little children, George and Charlotte, just how important these things are as they grow up."
"When I was growing up I was very lucky. My family was the most important thing to me. They provided me with somewhere safe to grow and learn."
"I'll just have to have more babies."
