Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony badly wanted children, but they couldn't figure out why it wasn't happening.  In a new interview with Elle Magazine, Jen opens up about her journey to become pregnant.

“We knew nothing was wrong with either one of us—I had been checked, and he had kids already. 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.” 

And when she finally did become pregnant, she didn't need a test to tell her what she already knew.

“I was sitting down doing hair and makeup and I felt a flutter," Jennifer says. "The weirdest little… flourish. My makeup artist said ‘What’s the matter?’ I didn’t say anything, but in my head, I was like, I have life inside me!”

When little Max and Emme were born J-Lo and Marc could not have been happier!

“I was like, How am I going to rock this moment of my life?..." she says of the book of photos. "I felt very womanly. Marc was in a dream. He loved it.”
