Sometimes after a really long day with fussy babies, because babies are going to be fussy, Milo and I are both like, ‘Cool, we’re good.’ We get to hand them back to the parents, and they get to deal with the fussiness, and dirty diapers, and whatnot, and we get to go home and not have to worry about it,” says Moore, who alongside costar Milo Ventimiglia, works with babies on the drama. In fall 2016, Moore told PEOPLE that “doing the show and holding babies, there is something very fundamentally biological and I feel it kicking. I hold these babies onset and I feel it in my insides.” For now, Moore is enjoying this “very happy time” of her life. Of becoming a mother, she says, “It’ll happen when it’s supposed to.”
