For Anna Faris, mom guilt wasn’t a new phenomenon.  

The Scary Movie actress revealed that it didn’t take welcoming her now-14-year-old son Jack—whom she shares with ex Chris Pratt—for her to experience the nearly universal emotion for mothers.  

“I already had a healthy dose,” Faris admitted in an exclusive E! News interview alongside Spa Weekend costars Isla Fisher, Leslie Mann and Michelle Buteau. “Like, a blanket of guilt. I’m doing something wrong all the time.”

And the 49-year-old felt there was even more pressure on her as a mom in Hollywood. 

“I think becoming a mom, especially in Los Angeles, it’s hard to feel like you’re doing everything right,” Faris continued. “There’s a lot of competition.”

Indeed, there was a period for Faris where it was hard for her to grasp her new identity after welcoming Jack in 2012. 

“What did it mean to go from actress—comedic actress, spoof movie queen,” she reflected, “To the identity of mom. Being worried with what that means. I wish that future generations don’t have that same burden of identity. Of perfection, the pressure. We’re all really flawed.”

Luckily, for her part, Faris’ son has helped her feel more confident in her role as his mom. 

“I am proud that he has a deep sense of justice and I find him just fascinating,” she mused. “I’m so lucky. I'm just so lucky that I have this incredible, fascinating boy.”

Still, she admitted self-doubt still creeps in, adding, “I hope I’m doing OK.”

Although Faris highlighted that breaking down some of the stigma of motherhood will take time, she expressed hope that Spa Weekend will give moms—and anyone raising kids—space to step back from their stress. 

“What I hope for this movie,” she expressed, “I hope multiple groups of women or people are inspired to have a super fun lunch on a Saturday. Like a late lunch. Plan a spa weekend getaway that they can manage to do in like, five years and then go see our movie.”

Chris Pratt and son Jack had an unforgettable time checking out the big trucks at the Monster Jam Celebrity Event inside Angel Stadium. 

Little Jack joined his mom during the Emoji Movie premiere in July 2017, looking adorable in a colorful tie and matching shirt.

Chris took to Instagram in June to share this photo from Hawaii with his son. He wrote, "Not sure what made me more proud: when Jack insisted on holding this barracuda himself, or when he tried it raw! (Barracuda sashimi is amazing by the way) haha!! 4 year olds will try anything! Get out and fish! No better way to share God's bounty with your babies and make life long memories than fishing! Get out on the water! #fishing #fishingislife."

Chris shared this photo of his wife and his son on Mother's Day in 2017. He wrote, "A big Mother's Day kiss and hug across the pond to my darling wife @annafaris and our sweet boy. I miss you both so much. I love you. Due to forced perspective in this picture Jack looks much bigger than Anna. How beautiful are they!? And the azaleas too! Richmond Park in full bloom. #happymothersday."

Anna shared this sweet photo via Instagram in April, writing, "Ahhhhh-relaxing after #whatsmysnack @prattprattpratt with our pirate son."

The actor was honored with a Hollywood Star of Fame in April 2017 where his wife and son joined him in celebrating.

The family represented their hometown football team, the Seattle Seahawks, while Faris led the parade as the Grand Marshal in August 2016.

Chris captioned this photo of the family, "The best part of parenthood is experiencing old things as new. Currently off to see the wizard, the wonderful #WizardOfOz."

Jack finally gets to meet Eagle, the Humboldt penguin he got to name, at a zoo in Seattle.

With a rambunctious toddler in tow, it's not easy to get the perfect selfie on the first try. The actress joked on Twitter, "You can tell by our faces that I've been trying to take this felfie for a while #hatwearinfamily."

The Mom star and her little guy share a special day out and about together.

Jack roots for the Seattle Seahawks along with his loving parents. 

"Happy boy, happy wife, happy life, porch swing," Pratt captioned this sweet moment on Instagram.

Anna and Jack make time to flash a smile  before heading to the airport.

While some 'rents might have a major freak-out moment over this small fiasco, Anna kept her cool by sarcastically tweeting,"Potty training is going so great! I'm a natural!" 

There's nothing like quality bonding time with your adorable baby!
