Kate Middleton has once again shown off her maternal side as she cooed over babies in Northern Ireland.
Mum-of-three Kate and husband Prince William, both 40, first stopped off in Belfast for their day-long visit to the region.
As well as showing their long-standing support for mental health advocacy by visiting the Public Initiative for Prevention of Suicide and Self Harm (PIPS), the royal pair chatted to members of the public outside the establishment – where Kate was undeniably drawn towards some adorable young faces.
One little boy was being presented to the Princess of Wales by his mother, as Kate came over to chat to them and coo over how cute the tot was.
Meanwhile, during a visit to the Trademarket outdoor market, the 40 year old stopped and chatted with another mother and their youngster who was in their pram.
Bowing down to peer inside the buggy, Kate beamed at the baby as their mum proudly stood by the princess.
Further fuelling her hopes of a fourth child, the Duchess of Cambridge shared a sweet moment with another mum at Carrickfergus Castle who was standing with her baby girl waiting to meet the royal.
Making her way over to them, Kate was snapped gently resting her hand beneath the little girl.
Kate was also treated to a cuddle with a two month old tot at Carrickfergus who appeared half asleep as she gently rocked the little boy back and forth as she spoke with his mum.
Kate’s baby-filled day comes after she put on a broody display at Royal Surrey County Hospital’s maternity unit on Wednesday 5th October.
The princess was snapped holding one day old baby Bianca after her mother, Szilvia Novak, 43, offered her to hold the baby.
Kate replied: “Am I allowed to?” before a member of staff helped Szilvia pass the baby to her.
As she cradled Bianca in her arms, Kate said: “She’s very sweet.”
She then returned the baby to Szilvia before continuing her tour of the hospital.
Kate’s youngest child, Prince Louis, is now four years old – but the Duchess admitted that she still sees him as a “baby”.
Speaking about her son, she said: “I keep thinking Louis is a baby but he's a big boy now. It just feels like yesterday."
The royal’s love of babies is well-known, with her even admitting earlier this year that spending time with babies makes her want “another one”.
During a visit to the Danish capital of Copenhagen in February, Kate quipped: “William always worries about me meeting under one year olds. I come home saying ‘let’s have another one’.”
After meeting two eight month old babies, she added: “It makes me very broody."
