Kristen Stewart has natural maternal instincts and can't wait to have children.

The 'Breaking Dawn: Part 2' actress - whose relationship with boyfriend of four years Robert Pattinson is back in a 'magical place' following her brief affair with director Rupert Sanders in August - said although she doesn't want to become a mother anytime soon she is looking forward to that stage of her life.

The 22-year-old said: 'I can't wait to be a mom, but like no. I can wait,' when asked whether she is planning to settle down anytime soon during a Los Angeles press junket for the final instalment of the 'Twilight Saga' franchise on Thursday (01.11.12).

The actress admitted she loved playing a mother to her character Bella's daughter Renesmee, played by actress Mackenzie Foy, in the new vampire movie as she got to flex her maternal instincts.

She said: 'I think that it might be something that you're born with or not born with. Some people have really, really strong natural instincts and desires to be a mom. That was one of my favourite things about the story. It was one aspect of [Bella] that I was really excited to play.'

Her 26-year-old boyfriend Robert also admitted he really enjoyed playing a dad onscreen.

He said: 'I actually quite like working with kids and I like working with animals, which everybody says you shouldn't do. Especially working with a baby is great. I would say, put a baby in every scene.'
