LAILA ALI COVERS PREGNANCY MAGAZINE

Wednesday, Aug 20 , 2008 4:52:pm by blackcelebritykids FILED UNDER Laila Ali

Mom-to-be Laila Ali is on the cover of the latest issue of Pregnancy magazine. Laila,who is expecting her first child with husband Curtis Conway, will be having a home birth:

On what mother she hopes to be:
I hope to patient and fair and just a good example to my kids…and consistent. I think that it’s important to teach kids values and morals and how to love themselves and be a leader not a follower.Hopefully I won’t be too strict, because that’s something that I could see myself doing-being too protective and too strict.

On when the baby is due:

I don’t put a due date on the baby,whenever he’s ready to come out.

On how she decided to have a home birth:

I saw Ricki lake’s documentary, The Business of Being Born. I think all women kind of like to be in control,but I want to really experience[the birth]. Society tells you,”You get pregnant,you go to the hospital,” and that was just naturally what i was going to do,but once i saw that there was another option,it just fit me. I want to be fully present-I don’t want any medications. I just want to be in control of the situation-as much as I can be anyway.

It’s not for everybody. So you have to do your research and at least be informed. Even if you don’t decide to do a home birth or work with a midwife,you can at least be aware of the fact that you can have a voice at the hospital. And make sure you pick a good doctor.
