Julia Roberts, who recently converted to the Hindu faith, is now trying to adopt a child from India, according to sources.
The 42-year-old, who already has three children with cameraman Danny Moder - twins Hazel and Finn, five, and Henry, three, suffered from complications during her previous pregnancies but is still keen to add to her brood.
"Julia has wanted more children for years. But her past pregnancies were fraught with complications and she was forced into an extended hospital stay right before she had her twins. After all she has been through, she realises that adoption is perhaps the best way forward," the Daly Express quoted a friend as saying.
"She has a special affinity with India and has contacts exploring the possibilities," the friend added.
She is also said to have contacted an adoption agency in Bali, where she spent time filming Eat Pray Love.
"Julia and Danny love the idea of their kids having another baby in the house. And it feels so right that the next member of the family should come from a different culture," the pal said.
