'Fuller House' Season 5: Stephanie's motherhood in Tanner house to be key aspect in final season of family sitcom

The plot of Season 5 will see how Stephanie Tanner, the witty child fans saw in the prequel Full House, transforms into a mom who is in charge

Fuller House has been renewed for Season 5 and this will be the last of this family drama-comedy sitcom. The end of Season 4 showed us that the Tanner house had welcomed another baby into the fold. The new baby is Stephanie Tanner's (Jodie Sweetin) firstborn. Her motherhood role will depend on how the Season 5 plot moves forward. 

Kimmy (Andrea Barber) plays the role of DJ's ( Candance Cameron Bure) best friend and a constant in the show since 'Full House', the prequel to 'Fuller House.' She finally gave birth to her brother Jimmy's (Adam Hagenbuch) and Stephanie's baby girl. The Fuller House crew did not reveal the name of the baby, which could be one of the things to look forward to in Season 5.

Netflix could also introduce Jr. Stephanie Tanner as the highlight of the show as the difficulties Stephanie faced in having a baby of her own was adequately covered. 

Full House always had children as "priority" when the sitcom started and embraced the concept of family with Danny (Bob Saget), Jesse (John Stamos), Joey (Dave Coulier) sticking together.

Actress Jodie Sweetin attends the premiere of Netflix's "Fuller House" at Pacific Theatres at The Grove on February 16, 2016, in Los Angeles, California.

The cast of 'Fuller House' did see a return of the Full House cast except for the Olsen twins. This series brings together most of the themes of 'Full House' with a more in-depth look at children, and, this time, the story is focused on DJ, Stephanie, and Kimmy's lives. 

Season 5 will shed light on Stephanie's parenting journey and her experience would be more entertaining and satisfying than that of DJ's. Stephanie has always been the cool and thoughtless one. She never had any intention of learning about raising children till she was put in a situation where DJ and she had to raise a family after DJ was widowed. 

A new parent goes through his or her won course of hardships, but besides that Stephanie was actually unable to carry her own child. The makers of 'Fuller House' have portrayed the situation in a heart-warming and subtle manner, making it highly relatable to women audiences. Not to forget, Stephanie had a huge fan base in Full House as a child with her wit and one-liners. Fans are eager to see her transform and grow into a mother in the last season of the family sitcom.
