Angelina Jolie has a special reason to give birth to her first natural baby in Namibia, despite malaria threats and other concerns - it's where she first became a mother.?

Jolie once referred to the Africa nation as "the cradle of human kind" and now American magazine Life + Style has uncovered why Namibia is so precious to Jolie, and where it looks like she'll be giving birth.

The actress and activist first took custody of her adopted Cambodian son MADDOX there back in 2002. Africa has also become a special place for Jolie - it's where she holidayed with BRAD PITT a year ago (APR05), letting the world know that reports of a romance were true. She then adopted another baby in Africa, Ethiopian ZAHARA, last summer (05).
