Angelina scheduled for C-Section Saturday?


Angelina Jolie is scheduled to give birth by Caesarean section tomorrow, Saturday, May 27, In Touch has learned exclusively.

Although she had really wanted to have a natural birth, Angelina's doctors are urging her to have the procedure due to a minor complication. "There's nothing seriously wrong,” an insider says. "They are expecting it all to be routine.”

Angelina, 30, is scheduled to have the C-section at a Namibian hospital, according to the insider. The father of the child, Brad Pitt, 42, is expected to be by her side.

Angelina had been planning to give birth at the Burning Shore Beach Lodge in Swakopmund — the African resort where she, Brad and her two adopted children, Maddox, 4, and Zahara, 16 months, have been staying for the past two months. But the doctors have advised her she will be safer in a hospital.

The baby, a girl, will be delivered by her American ob-gyn, assisted by local doctors, the insider adds. “Everyone is very excited, Maddox in particular,” says an insider in Africa. “He knows he is getting a new baby sister, now they are telling him how soon it will be.”

The long-awaited birth is a week before Angelina's June 3 due date.
