Watch: Evan Rachel Wood Schedules Around Baby

Evan Rachel Wood's countdown to baby has begun.

The actress, along with her A Case of You costar Justin Long, caught up with E! News to promote their film in New York City yesterday, and Wood revealed that she's going to step out of the limelight for a bit in order to prepare for her bundle of joy's arrival with hubby Jamie Bell

"This should be it for a while, and then I'm just gonna be sitting and cooking and waiting," she told us.

That statement prompted Long to ask, "Cooking your baby?"

"Cooking the baby, yeah. We're gonna eat the baby," the expectant mom quipped, which only inspired Long to continue with the joke. "Are you really? I heard that's a thing now!" he added.

Wood responded, "I'm gonna keep the placenta and eat the baby. If you think the placenta makes you feel good, just wait. I mean, this is like eternal life."

Oh, those Hollywood fads.
