Throughout her career, Jennifer Lawrence has gone viral for her hilariously outspoken nature on multiple occasions. Even so, nothing would have prepared 'Call Her Daddy' host Alex Cooper for her recent interview with the X-Men and The Hunger Games actress.

Cooper was expecting her first child with Matt Kaplan when the episode was recorded. She has since given birth to a baby boy. During the podcast interview, Cooper admitted that she was "completely unprepared" for the journey she's embarking on. Of course, Lawrence had some hilarious information to share regarding motherhood and childbirth.
"Your vagina will bounce back, your butthole won't," Lawrence told Cooper, via Entertainment Weekly.
Taken aback, Cooper tentatively posed the obvious question, "What's going to happen?"
"I'll tell you. I will tell you when I can get into a heated place," Lawrence said. "I'll show you."
From this point on, the conversation took a funny yet total left turn. Cooper asked Lawrence to explain what would happen, while doing so in a way that wouldn't fill her with dread over what was to come.
"There's no going back," Lawrence joked. "That thing is coming out."
Fortunately for Cooper, and honestly, for anyone listening at home, Lawrence chose not to go into further detail. Nevertheless, the cryptic admission has probably been enough to leave Cooper concerned at the time.
Jennifer Lawrence Had Some More General Motherhood Advice
Lawrence did offer Cooper some more general advice on what parenting will bring, though.
"You're unprepared for all of it, and everybody is like, 'Your instincts, your instincts.' You have no idea what you're doing," she admitted to Cooper. "I remember women being like, 'You'll be able to hear the difference with the cries.' And then I'm like, 'I can't hear the difference with the cries. I'm such a bad mom.'"
As any parent will be able to relate to, Lawrence also discussed the guilt of not feeling like you're doing enough for your children.
"I don't think I've ever just gotten into bed and been like, 'Wow, God, I'm such a good mom.' And I know I'm a good mom. I know. And it's just hard to pat yourself on the back because this job is so important and you love your kids so much that it's hard to just be like, 'Good job,' and you can hear it from maybe other people."
Cooper will undoubtedly find all of this out for herself. However, hearing and knowing that those feelings are totally normal will undoubtedly be somewhat of a comfort in the years to come. Cooper may wonder whether or not Lawrence was scarmongering at the start of the conversation, though.
