Jane Danson is glad her fellow 'Coronation Street' stars are having babies because they can now sympathise with parenthood.

The 31-year-old actress - who plays the feisty Leanne Battersby in the ITV soap and is married to fellow actor Robert Beck - gave birth to their second son, Alfie Sam Robert, ten months ago and says it's tough being a working mother.

She said: "It's mad here for babies. When I had Harry, I felt like I was being a drama queen with the sleepless nights, but everyone understands now! We all get together when we can, and its lovely! "

Other 'Coronation Street' actresses to have babies in recent months include Alison King, 35, who plays the conniving Carla Connor and Wanda Opalinska, who plays factory worked Wiki Dankowska.

Jack P. Shepherd (David Platt), was also said to be "over the moon" after his girlfriend Lauren Shippey had a little girl in February.

The soap's baby boom was however also tinged with sadness when it was also announced that 33-year-old Kym Marsh - who plays barmaid Michelle Connor - lost the child she was carrying.

Kym and her 'Hollyoaks' partner Jamie Lomas suffered the tragic loss of Archie, shortly after his premature birth this February.
