As Mrs. Marc Anthony and the proud mom of twins Max and Emme, Jennifer Lopez has gone from diva to domesticated. In the new issue of Elle, she opens up about becoming a mother, saying she never worried about being able to get pregnant — but since she’s not sure she will again, she was determined to savor the experience.

Although it took a while for her to conceive, “we knew nothing was wrong with either one of us — I had been checked, and [Marc] had kids already,” Jenny from the block explained. “I knew something’s not ready here, in my head or in my life, and when it is, I know it’s going to happen.”
