ALL Saints star Tammy MacIntosh is about to enter into her biggest production -- motherhood.
"I'd fantasised about it, but I'd never really imagined I would be a mum," said MacIntosh, 36, who is expecting her first child on July 18.
The actor, who plays Dr Charlotte Beaumont on All Saints, will take 12 weeks off the top rating show to adjust to motherhood.
Her character also will become pregnant on the show, but MacIntosh said she was unsure if her child would star in the series.
"I feel like it is a boy," she said, admitting she has driven her husband to distraction with her food cravings.
"He has been gorgeous. I had cravings for dahl first thing in the morning -- and there aren't too many Indian restaurants open at 8 o'clock.
"I moved to spicy pies and royal gala apples. Now I'm getting through half a tub of Homer Hudson chocolate rock ice cream every night."
MacIntosh, who married television producer Mark Yeats in October last year, said if the baby were a boy, he would be named Benjamin.
And while she plays a doctor on All Saints, MacIntosh said she found the prospect of giving birth very daunting.
"I got scared for the first time at baby classes when they showed a birth video," she said.
"The closer I get to it, the more worried I am that I won't be any good at being a mother. I love children, but it's a huge adjustment."
MacIntosh, who is due in 10 days, said although her pregnancy would be written into the show, producers were keeping mum about the father on the show.
