Hilary Duff wants to record album after baby's birth

She may be pregnant, but once that baby pops out Hilary Duff says she's heading back into the recording studio.

Us Weekly reported the former Disney star, who's four-and-a-half-months pregnant, doesn't just want to sing lullabies to her future son when he's born.

"I want to get into the studio," she said. "I want to start recording. Even if I just mess around and kind of get myself in the swing of it. Before I got pregnant I was thinking about making a record so I still want to do that."

But don't worry, she will be taking time off to take care of her little one.

"I think that after I have the baby I'll want to sit still for a few months and learn how to be a really good mom and then there's no reason why I can't put a record out and tour...It might take a little while but I'm really excited about it."

E! News reported the 24-year-old also has a new story line plotting around in her brain.

Duff, who just released her second novel, Devoted,/I>, might also be breaking out the word processor again soon.

"I have like four dogs so I have this funny story in my head about their whole dynamic together living in the same house," she said.

"I thought it would make a really cute child's novel."

Duff already has two books out on shelves, Devoted and Elixir.
