Ellen Pompeo's Ticking Clock

Ellen Pompeo, 38, and husband, record producer, Chris Ivery, have been married nearly a year, and the couple are realizing that the time is quickly approaching for them to become parents,

Ellen tells Allure in the October issue,

"It's a huge lifestyle change, and I take that very seriously. We enjoy our life so much. We go to Europe and sleep in. So when I have the baby, I won't feel like we've missed any fun, reckless times together, like staying up all night drinking champagne and having sex until five in the morning and not having to get up until two in the afternoon. But I've got to get on it, because the clock is ticking."

Fans of Ellen can tune into the season premiere of Grey's Anatomy on September 25, at 9pm on ABC.
