The Duchess of Cambridge is already planning a second child with husband Prince William after reporting a smooth pregnancy, despite some morning sickness, the Daily Star reported on Wednesday.

According to a close friend of Kate Middleton, the duchess wanted to see how she feels as she progresses in her pregnancy, and said that she has been doing well.

She wants to give her body time to recover, but the couple is already looking to try and conceive by January, when Middleton turns 32. The inspiration comes from her mother, who gave birth to Middleton's sister Pippa 11 months after the birth of Kate. 

“She wants to see how she feels after the baby is born but she sees no reason why they can’t start trying for another baby almost straight away,” said the source in the report. “She likes the idea of having an heir and a spare just a few months apart.”

The duchess also said she wants at least three children. 

In other news, the Duchess of Cambridge has been reportedly fighting pregnancy stretch marks by using cocoa butter and Vitamin E. According to Yahoo, she has been applying the cream nightly, which is supposed to keep the skin hydrated and supple.

Middleton has been using a combination of products, including massage lotion, massage cream, skin therapy oil and tummy butter.
