Charlotte's regal parents despised each other like crazy, and apparently only slept with each other for sole purposes of producing an heir. As soon as that happened, they stopped trying. Humanity sometimes only cares about the present, instead of leaning in the future. They just didn't consider Charlotte's future chances of passing. Also an important fact is that pregnancies were harder back then compared to now, it was a death sentence for women, sadly. It must have been emotionally hard and physically dangerous. Childbirths and colds were a strong cause for death back in those days - being aware of this they probably didn't want to risk it. For example, Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands tried getting pregnant a dozen times, and suffered many miscarriages, painful births, and stillborn children, so she was deeply relieved when she finally welcomed a healthy baby, and was determined to stop there. As medicine and biological research developed, people were willing to take risks by getting pregnant, because it became less of a life-threatening practice. That's what I'm assuming. We don't die of childbirths anymore, thankfully, but even today, getting naturally pregnant is a struggle for many. Imagine that struggle in the past, and the chances of you dying on top of that as well.

@@nuotatorre8741 I think the chances of having many children was also decided by the lack of birth control or prevention in those days... But then again, you're totally correct. Humanity and reproduction survived this far after all. I guess it just depended on the person and the choices that were made at the end of the day. I was just trying to explain the possible factors

One thing that everyone seems to forget is that Charlotte's birth, wedding and (if ended in a good way) childbirth only solved the problem for the british crown not the hannoverian, unless the hannoverian succession had been changed in her favour. Providing Charlotte hadn't died she could have had another two, three or four more children when succeding to the british throne aged 34 having a bunch of heirs to carry on her line. If the boy had survived while she herself wouldn't have he would have succeded his grandfather at the age of 13 with a regency in the best case of his father or someone more responsible the George IV had been.

In both cases, history was dramatically altered. In Charlotte’s case, her not becoming Queen led to Victoria becoming Queen instead. Victoria tried to avert war by marrying her children off into Europe’s royal houses but it backfired dramatically when her grandchildren all turned on each other about a decade after her death and thus came world war I. Rhaenys not becoming Queen led to Viserys taking the throne and we all know how his actions led to the Dance of Dragons.

This is a reason why a c section is needed, as it is the only safe presager that can be done if complications like this happen as they have been done since ancient times, so if that had been done there is some chance both might have been saved. Her father was a real piece of work and so was his mistress. If she and the baby had survived, I still think Queen Victoria and her bloodline would still have existed since there wouldn't have been much guarantee on how long Charlotte and her child would have live in a general sense.

If forceps had been used, it's possible that Charlotte and her son would have both lived OR that only her son would have survived. Despite his poor mother having been starved for so long, the son did weigh nine pounds. Oddly enough, although the stillborn son wasn't given a name he was recorded as having been 'a Prince' in the family genealogy. Had the son lived, it might have been had his maternal grandfather the Prince Regent go to war with Prince Leopold over his custody,etc. BTW, Leopold I (1790-1865) was Victoire, Duchess of Kent's (1786-1861) YOUNGER brother! It also needs to be mentioned that Edward, Duke of Kent had helped Leopold and Charlotte smuggle their correspondence with each other AND Charlotte herself HAD wished for Victoire to marry her uncle the Duke of Kent! Also, the Duke of Kent HAD had at least one child by a servant decades earlier but had had no child by his longtime mistress so, to increase his chances of siring a legit heir, (after he dumped the mistress) he picked Victoire, the then Dowager Princess of Leiningen who had safely borne two children by her late 1st husband Emich, the Prince of Leiningen. Oddly enough, despite her very existence having happened due to her mother having been a remarried widow, Queen Victoria was against the remarriage of widowed people! Oh, it also needs to be mentioned the Leopold would be Victoria's favorite uncle but she didn't like his nagging especially after she became Queen and got tired of him reminding her of the sad fate of her cousin/ aunt-by-marriage Princess Charlotte of Wales when Victoria herself was pregnant with her own firstborn child.

L love your writing the story too

Well done Lindsay ⚘

I Love, can u make a video about John of gaunt

This makes me dislike George IV even more. I honestly didn't think that was possible.

What a tragic story.

I remembered reading the diaries of Miss Anne Lister and the news of Princess Charlotte's death was written on it with incredible details and how the people mourned upon the loss of Princess Charlotte.
