During an interview with Marie Claire, Angelina Jolie talked about motherhood and said. “I love it. It makes me feel like a woman. It makes me feel that all the things about my body are suddenly there for a reason. It makes you feel round and supple, and to have a little life inside you is amazing.” She added that Brad Pitt changed her views about pregnancy and made her feel s*xy during these times. “Also, I’m fortunate. I think some women have a different experience depending on their partner. I think that affects it. I happen to be with somebody who finds pregnancy very s*xy. So that makes me feel very s*xy,” she added.

Interestingly, Angelina Jolie had never planned on getting pregnant. It all changed during the shooting of Changeling. She read the script and felt instinctive protectiveness towards her children. For the unversed, the movie was about a mother whose son got kidnapped. But when he returned, she didn’t feel it was really him.
While talking about the experience with ABC News, Angelina said, ” I was so angry as a mother that I didn’t want to do it, I didn’t want to touch it, I didn’t want to think about anyone kidnapping my children. I didn’t want to go near it. But I couldn’t forget it and I couldn’t stop thinking about her and I kept telling people about this amazing woman and so I realized that her story and the story of what she overcame and that she fought the system and who she was and I really wanted to tell it.”
She credited the film for her pregnancy while interviewing with Las Angeles Times and said, “I got pregnant right in the middle of it and I think partially because of it. I was so emotional about children that I think something in me kicked into gear.”
