Emily Ratajkowski shut down claims she received lip injections while pregnant with her first child

Emily Ratajkowski has denied claims that she underwent cosmetic procedures to improve her pout, which looked much fuller in recent months.

In response to a sea of ​​lip injection accusations over the weekend, the 29-year-old model reminded her 27 million followers that swelling is a normal part of pregnancy throughout the body.

“ I’ve never had lip injections (not people judging – you look good!) But you can’t even get injections when you’re pregnant! she wrote on her Instagram story.

She explained, “ A woman’s blood volume increases by 50%, which is why women may have a little swelling in their face and lips during pregnancy. ”

Although the symptom is not very common, according to parents, “ some expectant mothers have larger lips, ” but they usually deflate a few months after giving birth.

The effects of lip injections in children are unknown and the FDA recommends against doing so.

Speaking more to critics, who keep saying she’s “ forever pregnant, ” the Gone Girl star pointed out that it had only been three months since she broke the news.

“ LOL, yeah, the pregnancy is 40 weeks which can certainly sound like a long time, but I announced halfway through my pregnancy, ” she joked.

Ratajkowski, who is expecting her first child with her husband Sebastian Bear-McClard, also revealed that the experience had “ strangely passed to her very quickly. ”

In addition, she noted that it was “weird” to see her “body change so much in a few months.”

“ I have a whole new appreciation for what my body can do and what is beautiful and I’m going to celebrate it here when I feel like it, ” she concluded.

Ratajkowski has always had a noticeably plump pout since he rose to stardom in Robin Thicke’s Blurred Lines music video almost eight years ago, and even inspired Charlotte Tilbury to name a shade of lipstick “ Hot Emily. ” after her.

During her pregnancy, the Gone Girl actress also worked on an upcoming essay book which currently bears the title My Body.

She announced the news of her baby on the cover of Vogue and wrote an essay on why she won’t report sex.

“ When my husband and I tell friends that I’m pregnant, their first question after, ‘Congratulations’ is almost always ‘Do you know what you want?’ She says.

“ We like to respond that we won’t know about sex until we are 18 and that they will let us know at that point, ” she said, admitting that “ everyone is laugh at that. ”
