"I guess I thought like you're a real adult once you have a baby," she said. "My perception was like, 'Oh, you have all the answers and you know all the things. Everything you say goes because you are God.'"

"It was a little isolating in the beginning because I didn't have any friends that had babies yet," the Disney Channel alum said. "But I had been working for such a long time that it felt like a natural step for me and I always knew I wanted to be a mom and I always knew that was going to be my number one priority in life."
