Actors Max Collins and Pancho Magno recently revealed they are having a baby boy.
As the delivery of their child is nearing, Max shared that she is planning to give birth at their home through water birth.
The actress also related that she’s not comfortable with giving birth at the hospital because of the current situation of coronavirus disease crisis in the country, especially in Metro Manila.
“I just don’t feel comfortable in the hospital setting, lalo na now. I just started a course for home birthing. I want it to be a water birth so I’m looking for a mini pool,” Collins said.
“I never thought it would come to this but I think that would be the safest way for me,” she said, adding that this plan is not yet final since she’s taking a lot of considerations such as the positioning of the baby and her body’s capability to deliver without any medical help.
“Not a hundred percent sure na about the home birth ‘cause I have to check siyempre the positioning of the baby, kung kaya ko. I’ve been talking with my OB-Gyne about having labor at a hospital,” she said.
Meanwhile, Max has been maintaining the workout routines that she said are part of her preparation to give birth.
“Kasi if not, I don’t know how I will be able to give birth naturally if my body is not in good shape. That’s really what I’m preparing for physically. Kasi siyempre if there’s no anesthesia, it’s gonna be difficult,” she added.
Collins announced her pregnancy in December 2019, two years after tying the knot with Magno in December 2017.(GMA)
