Singer Beyonce is looking forward to having children with her husband Jay Z, but not just yet.

“I definitely want to have a child, but I know from my nephew it’s a lot,” Knowles tells Allure magazine. “I hope that those things will just happen naturally. I still haven’t had time to relax.”

In the past, the Grammy-Award winning singer has said that she would like to one day have a daughter of her own.

“I have the best mother in the world and my mother is literally my best friend.  I respect her  so much.. Of course I want to be a mother and i only pray that my relationship with my daughter is like the relationship i have with my mother,” she told Larry King in an interview while promoting her movie Obsessed in 2009.

For now, Beyonce is content in maintaining her pre-mommy curves.

“I always say, ‘I don’t want to lose my curves.’ I like firm curves,” Knowles, 28, says. “You can never do enough squats, you can never do enough sit-ups. I like for women to look feminine.”
