Yesterday we covered Nicole Kidman’s glowing and enviably gorgeous appearance at the CMT Awards on Monday to support her husband, country singer Keith Urban, who was nominated for best male video. I said that she barely looked pregnant to me and many of you schooled me that all women show differently and that there are some women who don’t show until the very end of their pregnancies. I was big as a house from the fifth month on, so it’s hard for me to relate.
There is some speculation that she’s still using Botox and Restylane since she looks perfectly fresh-faced still, but others say that she’s got that pregnancy glow and it could be compensating for a lapse in visits to her surgeon. Commenter headache points us to documentation about Botox online, which says that they recommend against use during pregnancy, but that it is still up to the patient. Restylane is similarly advised against, but there are no definitive studies. It’s possible Nicole’s face just filled out during pregnancy. A Botox advisory site states that “Pregnant women who have enjoyed the benefits of the effects of Botox on the signs of ageing may find that this cosmetic treatment becomes superfluous during pregnancy, as water retention naturally puffs out the skin causing fine lines such as crow’s feet to become less visible.”
Either way, Nicole is looking great and you can’t underestimate the ability of a stylist, makeup artist and hairdresser to transform a woman.
Nicole told Access Hollywood in a brief interview before the show Monday night that she’s had terrible morning sickness. She also revealed that she’s waiting for her third trimester:
“I’ve had severe morning sickness…
“[I’m] good actually, really good. Waiting for the third trimester. Everyone says that is hard work.”
I don’t think you know hard work as a mom until the kid can start to walk, but that’s just my experience. I also only have one child, and I’m sure there are many moms of two children and more who would shake their heads at me calling just one child work.

I think CB said she only had one child, in her comment below Nicole’s quote.
-
Oh thank god. LOL It’s just too early I swear. Plus I’m really not sure Nicole thinks of those two as her own so it was easy for me to believe she said it. ooops.
-
I know the feeling.
-
I thought she was one of those intersexed people. since she’s pregnant I guess not
-
Morning sickness, that’s nothing when her kid gets here its going to be ‘Amazing” and and incrediable spiritual life evolving Journey Motherhood is” cause ya know Celebrities think they are the first ones to ever experiece such things.
-
Severe morning sickness might explain why she doesn’t look really big; She hasn’t gained much weight.
-
Caitlinsmommy, you are probably right about her weight gain. I was sick for eight and a half months with my 2nd son. The only weight I gained was baby related. I would be pleased I had only gained baby weight with the others, but I didn’t like sicking everything up enough for that! My fourth is due June 5, and no sickness! Yea!
-
She actually looks smaller here than she did in some photos from a few weeks ago. Which is weird. But whatever.

“I don’t think you know hard work as a mom until the kid can start to walk, but that’s just my experience”
I have a four year old and a two year old and I’m MUCH happier chasing around after them than being pregnant. I HATED being pregnant, and while getting no more than two hours of sleep for months on end is brutal, at least you can hug and kiss and smell the little one causing you the stress. When you can’t leave a chair because you know that the second you move you’ll hurl, it’s hard to appreciate this little being that you can’t see, or touch.
-
Keep that nasty man-batter out of you, and you won’t have that problem, Nicole.
-
its horrible that Nicole said she “only has one child”. Like her two adopted children don’t exist. Shame on her!
-
Cindy, she didn’t say that. I read it wrong.
-
Keith is alot better for nicole than tom cruise, as far as keith looks, there are more important aspects to a person than how good looking he/she maybe. It seems like nicole and keith have what it takes to raise their child well and pervent any wild, scary crap from happening.
-
Uhm Keith was knee deep in some serious addiction when she met and married him. Boy may not be batshit crazy but as a mother of two I would not have married him without being a number of years sober and I certainly wouldn’t have reproduced with him until then either.
But then again, I’m not Nicole.

I had severe morning sickness 24/7 for the first 18 weeks. That has been the hardest part of being a mother so far. And my child is 6 years old at the moment…
-
My friend (now 9 months pregnant) had such bad morning sickness that she actually lost weight over the first and some of the second trimester. After 7 months however her belly finally ‘popped’. When my sister was pregnant you could only tell from side on as she stayed slim throughout the whole thing!
-
I lost 24 lbs while pregnant and the week I delivered (9 days late) I was still 6 lbs less than my pre-pregnancy weight. It was the best weightloss plan I ever did! I ate loads of food too, as I would get violently ill if I didn’t eat large amounts of protein constantly. My last month I could wear my regular jeans-they looked weird, but I could fit.
-
Here’s the thing and I’ve been a botox user so I speak from experience. When you’ve been using it long term and regularly, after a while the muscles can atrophy and you can go for longer periods without needing any. Its quite possible that she’s given it away during her pregnancy but the results of years of use are still evident.
HOWEVER, that filler she has pumped into her lips is naturally absorbed by the body between 4 - 6 months so she would have to be having that topped up during her pregnancy to maintain that look.
Not making a judgement about the wisdom or otherwise of using it whilst pregnant. I’m just sayin’…
-
I always doubted that Botox was a category A drug in pregnancy! And my skin didn’t naturally plump out while pregnant - babies sucked all the oil out of my skin, making it more lined!
She reminds me of Bree in Desperate Housewives (and yes, Nic should have kept the red hair).
I like Tom. I didn’t for a while. I think he copped an awful lot of flack when who knows what the real story was. I was on the bandwagon for a while and loathed him and Pene for a while too, but now I just think poor him. Glad he’s got a happy family, including a biological little one. He must have been sad for years when no pregnancy worked out. Good luck to him and his family.
