Kim Kardashian Won't Use Botox Or Hair Dye During Pregnancy – Or Name Her Baby South

The pregnant reality star does have a figure to maintain, after all

Kim Kardashian may be one of the world’s most photographed women (and very concerned with her appearance), but thankfully she appears putting her baby’s health first during her second pregnancy.

The KUWTK star has insisted that she won’t have Botox during the next five months – despite claims that she’s recently had work done.

“No I don’t do fillers or Botox when pregnant like some tabloids are reporting, you would have to be really sick to endanger your child like that!” Kim tweeted recently. Message received, Kimmy.

She also took to her Twitter account to put a halt to rumours that she’s planning on going back to blonde. “Not this year. I’m pregnant so can’t. I loved it though so maybe in a year or two. It was so hard on my hair though.”

There’s some evidence that shows that using hair colouring agents when pregnant could harm your baby, which is why experts suggest sticking to natural alternatives such as henna during pregnancy.

One study showed that using hair dye while pregnant could cause the unborn baby to develop neuroblastoma – a rare infantile cancer that affects the nervous system. But there’s not a large amount of proof. Nevertheless, we’re glad that Kim’s avoiding colouring her hair until her bub is born in December.

But while Kim may be refraining from using chemical procedures on her hair or skin, she is determined to make sure she doesn’t pile on the pounds during this pregnancy. She received a lot of stick for appearing to put on excess weight while pregnant with North and is working hard to keep herself fit this time around.

“Just walked 3 miles and did 100 squats! Happy Monday,” she tweeted yesterday.

Kim’s also taking steps to lower her risk of developing pre-eclampsia for the second time. She’s been instructed to reduce her sodium intake and drink plenty of water to help avoid another pre-eclampsia attack.

She previously confessed that her experience with the pregnancy condition was so traumatic that it put her off trying for a second baby – temporarily at least.

This time around, Kim’s says she's been keeping a close eye on what she eats in the hope that it will help avoid another pre-eclampsia bout - and no doubt keep her weight gain to a minimum.

“The last pregnancy, I ate a donut every single day, I’m not doing that this time,” Kim told US Weekly. “To be honest, I’ve had really bad morning sickness, day sickness, night sickness. I can barely get out of bed.

“It’s a very different type of pregnancy from my first one. But I’m so grateful to be pregnant when we didn’t even think it was going to happen for us. I don’t care how sick I am."

But what of the baby's name? Kim and Kanye haven't revealed what they will be calling their child but they have said they won't be calling their son South.

"Why just add another direction? We're good. North is the best. I don't want to try and duplicate that with like a lower direction, you know?," Kim told Shaquille O'Neal during The Big Podcast.

Anyone understand that? We sure don't...
