When I got pregnant, I had to concentrate on being pregnant for a whole nine months, even though I knew it was ruining my career at the time.

I wasn't mentally prepared to take care of them, I was focused on my career. And then when I got to be in my 40s and I thought about having kids, I wasn't able to have kids naturally. I don't regret it.

It's not something that's at the forefront of my mind, but I think I'd regret it if I didn't have children.

Why did I not stop to have children? I suppose because the opportunity didn't present itself. Yes, many women feel they are not complete without having children, but I have different creative outlets.

I realized relatively early on that I had no desire to be a mother whatsoever. I actually love children, but specifically other people's.

You always hear people say that having kids changes everything, but you can't fully realize it until you have children yourself.

I've never in my life said I didn't want to have children. I did and I do and I will!

I love children and I love men, but I can't commit to either for the rest of my life.

I had to make a major decision with myself because I just don't think you can do both: try to have a baby career and raise it and have a baby baby and raise it. And to try to do justice to either one. It was a very conscious decision on my part not to have children - which I have never regretted.

As a woman of a certain age - and really, ever since I hit puberty and my baby-making parts were suddenly subject to public debate - I've been told over and over again that I will 'change my mind' about not wanting kids.
