Carmen Electra may be completely smitten with her fiancé Rob Patterson, but she says motherhood can wait – for now.

“I hope to be a mom some day, but I’m not rushing to be one,” Electra told PEOPLE at Shrine at MGM Grand at Foxwoods in Connecticut. “It would be a lot of fun. A lot of hard work, but I’ll look forward to it someday.”

The bombshell took a detour from filming her latest movie Mardi Gras in New Orleans to meet Patterson’s parents. “They’re really cool,” she says. “We had a great day today and . . . we’re looking forward to doing some dancing then going straight back to New Orleans.”

She may be getting back to work on her movie, but that’s not the only project Electra, 36, has in the works. She will be releasing her own new line of portable stripper poles so ladies can get a work out Carmen style. “They’re so much fun,” she says. “I actually put one up in my living room with the help of a girlfriend.”

“Pole dancing really isn’t as easy as it looks,” she adds. “I’m still taking pointers. It’s a good workout.”
