Giuliana Rancic's Olympic Coverage May Cause Her to Miss Baby's Birth

Will Giuliana Rancic miss the birth of her first child?

Rancic said in a recent Today show interview that her job may keep her from being on hand for her baby's birth, via surrogate.

Rancic and her husband, Bill Rancic, announced last month that they're having a boy, but her job as an E! News correspondent could prevent her from being there for his arrival.

With the baby's due date and her coverage for the Olympics, she said they're going to be on "standby."

Rancic explained, "The baby is due the end of August. And so I wrap at the Olympics August 11th, so we are going to be on standby."

For a couple that's tried so hard to have a baby and all that Rancic has been through, you'd think that she would make it a priority to be there when her son is born.

Of course, covering the Olympics has to be a fantastic experience, but this is their child, for goodness sakes.

Rancic seems assured by the doctor, who says it may even be September when baby arrives, but you never know when babies will decide to arrive.

Do you think she's cutting it too close with her job and the baby's arrival?
