The 33-year-old, who was engaged to Britton, said she has always dreamed of a brood of kids, reported Daily Express.
"I want two or three or four or five. I don't care. They're so delicious and I love the pressure and anxiety of, like, a loud room full of yapping kids. I'm a kid myself, so I get along very well with animals and children. I dig them, I get them. They make perfect sense to me," she said.
But Saldana said the timing was never right for her to get pregnant during her 11-year romance with Britton, which ended last year.
"I'm Latin, we start young... At 22, you're like, 'I'm getting an itch to hold something; I just wanna have a little critter.'
"I was dating my partner and you wanna be respectful... he wasn't ready... And then when he got ready I didn't have time. Making the decision to wait with him was one of the most mature things... Had I been, like, the traditional person that I really am, I would have been, 'I'll find somebody that can give me a baby...' I'm glad that I respected him," she said. PTI NDS
