No, Penny (played by Kaley Cuoko) did not want to have any kids in The Big Bang Theory. True TBBT fans are aware that Penny, who hails from a small town outside of Omaha, Nebraska, was terrified of the idea of having kids. During the start of The Big Bang Theory season 12, fans saw that Leonard and Penny went through a small disagreement where Leonard was ready to have kids and expand their family and Penny immediately shut down the idea.
The reason behind this is that Penny was afraid that she would be a horrible mother. However, in the series finale of the sitcom, it was revealed that Penny was pregnant.
