Jessica Alba a calmer, rational mother now

Actress Jessica Alba is of the opinion that she is more rational and calmer as a mother to her younger daughter, Haven.

The actress is a mother of two daughters - Honor, three, and Haven, eight months - with husband Cash Warren. The 30 year old believes she has evolved with the birth of her second daughter, contactmusic.com writes.

"I feel like most of my irrational, overprotective, and weary new mom behaviour evolved into a more easygoing, laid-back approach with my second child," Alba wrote on her blog.

"I've never been a true helicopter parent, but I've definitely stayed awake for endless hours doing research on everything I could do wrong. I often made more mistakes trying not to make any mistakes," the actress said.

She said that she has learnt to take each day as it comes. She further added that parenthood is a lot more enjoyable if there is no worry.

"With Haven I'm more relaxed. I try not to let every cough or bump on the head freak me out. This calm attitude has definitely made adjusting to life with two kids easier and more fun.

"It may feel impossible trying to juggle it all, so don't hold yourself to the unrealistic standards of being a supermom," she wrote on her blog.
