(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Kate Hudson is reportedly considering putting her career on the backburner after the birth of her baby.

The actress and her rocker fianc Matt Bellamy are expecting their first child together in a matter of weeks. She already has seven-year-old son Ryder with her ex-husband Chris Robinson and can't wait to be a mother again. She's so looking forward to the new arrival that she might put her work plans on hold for a while.

"Kate's ready to dedicate her life to Matt and their baby," a source told National Enquirer.

The 32-year-old apparently worries she wasn't there enough for Ryder when he was little. The pair have a great relationship, but she's determined everything should be perfect this time round.

"Kate loves acting, but she loves being a mother more," the source added. "She feels she missed some things during Ryder's childhood because she was so focused on Hollywood. She doesn't want the same thing to happen with her new baby."

Kate's acting credits include How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Almost Famous and Bride Wars.

The star confirmed Matt had proposed in April while on American television, but the pair are not believed to have set a date yet. They are too busy planning for the new baby, with Kate attending her baby shower last weekend. (C) Cover Media
