"I've never, ever been on a set where they have childcare, but I've been on lots of sets where lots of people have very young children... I had my daughter on the set of (2017 Netflix drama) 'Mudbound' and 'Wildlife' and loads of the crew had kids, but they had to arrange childcare. It's always incredibly complicated," said the mother of two.

"Childcare on set would make it possible for a lot of talented people to come and do their job. At the moment, it's limiting," she added.
Mulligan is married to Mumford & Sons frontman Marcus Mumford. They have two children -- daughter Evelyn Grace, 3, and son Wilfred, 14 months.
"I don't think we're at the level where it (being pregnant) is acceptable across the board yet. I think if people can hide it, they do."
