Aiko's mother, 44-year-old Princess Masako, has been largely out of the public eye for more than three years,
suffering from a mental disorder that many say was at least partly caused by the pressure to bear a male heir.
"Prince Hisahito is third in line to the throne, so in those terms he is way above her, although women have their own function in the imperial household,"
said Yasuo Ohara, a professor at Kokugakuin University and adviser to the group.
"It's a very delicate matter for all concerned," he added.
Hisahito's father is Prince Akishino, the younger son of Emperor Akihito.
The baby prince follows his uncle and father in order of succession.
