14 DAY TRIAL // Jessica Simpson, now expecting her first child, is believed to be due sometime in March, though she wouldn't say more than that she's having a “spring baby.” She might be keeping the secret because she's thinking of having a C-section.
In fact, the way the baby will be delivered is proving a real bone of contention with her fiancé, Eric Johnson, the latest print issue of The National Enquirer claims (story via here).
Following earlier reports that Jessica dropped out o Lamaze classes because she realized a natural birth wasn't for her, The Enquirer is now saying that she's decided already for a C-section.
However, Eric is none too happy about it, because he always imagined she would be giving birth at home.
“As Jessica Simpson’s due date approaches [she] is butting heads with fiancé Eric Johnson over how she should give birth. The 31 year-old wants a C-Section but her beau thinks she should deliver naturally, says sources,” the celebrity publication writes.
For the time being, it would seem the two can't agree on it.
“Jessica initially wanted a natural birth but changed her mind. And now she’s fighting with Eric about the delivery,” a source is quoted as saying.
“He thinks the baby should have a natural water birth, while she wants to have a C-section so she doesn’t have to deal with a prolonged labor or pain,” adds the spy.
Part of the reason she wants to have a C-section is that she feels exhausted and wants to see the baby as soon as possible.
“She’s tired of carrying the baby, feeling boated and experiencing the usual inconveniences of being pregnant. And with the hormones really kicking in, Jessica put her foot down. If she wants a C-section, I am sure she’ll get one,” the insider goes on to say.
Ever since she announced she was expecting her first child, Jessica never ceased to generate media attention, especially on part of the tabloids.
Just this week, for instance, another publication of this kind said that she was gaining too much weight during the pregnancy and that it could put her and the baby's health at risk, as we also reported at the time.
