Home birth for musician Ani DiFranco
Singer/songwriter Ani DiFranco, 35, welcomed her first child, a baby girl, in New York.
Her website makes the happy announcement:
“ANI’S BUNDLE OF JOY ARRIVES…
We’re happy to report that Ani gave birth to a 7 pound, 8 ounce little girl, Petah Lucia, at her Buffalo home early Saturday morning, January 20. Mother and baby are both healthy and happy. Welcome to the world, Petah!”
The father is rumored to be boyfriend Mike Napolitano.
Would you consider having a home birth, like DiFranco? I like the thought of giving birth at home, where you are comfortable and surrounded by everything that is familiar. However, I think it would be hard for me to relax and enjoy the experience thinking that I may not have the proper equipment if something went wrong.
