'Lost' star Dominic Monaghan has been desperate for a baby - since he was 11.The actor loves the fact his character - drug addict Charlie - spends so much time looking after his friend's baby because he loves being around the tot.He revealed: "I've been broody since I was, like, 11! "I love kids. I love being around wild animals or babies because it's a pure interaction there. They're all about the moment. So I love being around babies. It's fun."Meanwhile, Dominic - who is romancing 'Lost' co-star Evangeline Lilly - also revealed he's bracing himself to be killed off in the show.He said in a British magazine interview: "Yeah, I think my character could die. It's the nature of the show, isn't it? But I think you have to try to be philosophical about the whole thing."I've said to the writers a bunch of times, 'If you're sitting in the writing room and you create a fantastic death scene for Charlie that reverberates through the whole cast and affects the whole season, then I'm all for it."
