Nicole Kidman's Morning Moan

Nicole Kidman is suffering from terrible morning sickness.

The Oscar-winning actress - who is expecting her first baby with husband Keith Urban - has had stomach troubles throughout her pregnancy but says everything else is going to plan.

She told US TV show 'Access Hollywood': "I've had severe morning sickness but apart from that I'm good actually, really good."

However, Nicole, 40, is preparing herself for the worst for the last few months of pregnancy, after being warned by friends.

The 'Moulin Rouge' star - who is due to give birth in July - said: "I'm waiting for the third trimester. Everyone says that is hard work."

Nicole already has two adopted children, Isabella, 15, and 13-year-old Connor, with ex-husband Tom Cruise.

She had made no secret of her desire to have a child with Keith.

She previously said: "I love babies. I would say it's in God's hands. If God wills it, it will happen, right?"

Nicole and Keith met at a black-tie ball for Australians living in Los Angeles in summer 2005. In April of that year, Nicole said: "I have got hormones running through my system. That is why I sit wriggling, saying I want to have a baby."
