Gwen Stefani: 'Babies Make Romance Better' 9/3/08

Parenting has turned Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale into better, more attentive lovers, according to the No Doubt pop star.

The new mum is glowing after giving birth to second child Zuma Nesta Rock last month (Aug08) and she insists babies have brought her and husband Rossdale closer together.

She tells the UK's Hello! magazine, "(It's great to) see how we've both become more romantic and caring for each other simply because we've seen how beautiful it is to have come this far together and started a new chapter in our lives... I feel we're closer in many ways now that we're building something together outside our own crazy relationship.

"I feel happier now. I know every mother must feel this way, but watching your child grow up and learn new things every day is one of the greatest and purest pleasures you can have."

And though Stefani is keen to get back to business after becoming a mum again at 38, she's keen to have at least one more kid.

She adds, "Gavin loves being a dad and he wants to have a bigger family, too."
