In my search for Sophia Loren material, no where have I found reference made to the fact that of all the things Sophia desired out of life, she wanted children. She wanted children so bad, that she put herself at serious risk for the 2 children she has. After suffering painful and near fatal miscarriages, she solicited the help of a doctor, and finally became pregnant. Her pregnancies required her to be in bed for the entire 9 months.

Sophia is a beautiful woman, a most loving mother and a kind spirit. To watch home films of her with the her children, is to feel proud. The devotion to her husband and children are paramount to her. 

Sophia Loren is the epitome of woman.
