Rachel Weisz feels sexier now she is a mother.

The 39-year-old actress - who has a three-year-old son Henry with director fiancé Darren Aronofsky - says going through labour made her more aware and comfortable with her body.

She said: "I feel sexier after having a baby. It makes you feel a lot more confident and appreciative of your body and what it's capable of doing. I've got a lot more respect for it."

The 'Lovely Bones' star also said she has learned more about herself since entering her thirties.

She added to Britain's Cosmopolitan magazine: "My twenties were horrible. I felt I didn't know anything and worried about everything.

"As you get older, you learn to let go of a few things. You come to know your own mind, values and morality."

Rachel recently said she had "never been happier" since having Henry and claims he has improved her life in so many ways.

She said: "I find I can get a lot more done since I've had Henry. Suddenly, in 45 minutes, you can get twice as much done as you once did. I've become a lot more organised.

"And I'm a much happier person since I've had Henry, and much more balanced. I feel I have an ultimate purpose beyond anything else in my life."
