Jennifer Lopez's days of partying until the wee hours of the morning are long gone. J.Lo insists she has been transformed and is ready to have children.

The singer-and-actress, who married singer-songwriter Marc Anthony in June 2004, insists the time has come to settle down.

When asked by the New York Post if she was ready to be a mother, she said "yes" and patted her stomach.

She added, "When I got married a few years ago, I decided that I was going to pull back from all the craziness. What that provided me with was time to think about what was important to me. And as an artist, it's about having space, having time to let things happen inside of you."

Marc is J.Lo's third husband. She was married to restaurant manager Ojani Noa and dancer Chris Judd. She also dated rap mogul Diddy for two-and-a-half years and was engaged to Ben Affleck.

After shooting to fame in 1999 with her debut album "On The 6,: J.Lo has gone on to be one of the most successful female stars in the world. She has starred in 22 films, including "Out Of Sight" with George Clooney, launched three fragrances and has her own clothing line.
