Olivia Wilde is soon to become a busy mum-of-two as son Otis waits to become a big brother.
Managing all this, her acting career and humanitarian work is hard work and Olivia says that she misses her little boy when she’s busy conquering the world.
In an interview with People magazine, the actress spoke about one part of her routine that helps with the home sickness.
“I love the smell of all the baby stuff. It’s all so lovely.
“Otis been using the same lotion since he was tiny. And actually, when I go away for work and I can’t be with him for a couple of days, I bring a little tub of it and wear it.”
Braving the looks she might get from her co-stars, Olivia says it’s totally worth it.
“I don’t know if this sounds super creepy, but I wear it as moisturizer on my arms so I vaguely smell like him.
“People are probably like, ‘Why does this lady smell like diapers?’ ”
The Vinyl actress is expecting her second child with fiancé Jason Sudeikis and says that she loves the connection she feels with her body during pregnancy.
“There’s something really beautiful about pregnancy.
“It is a time when you feel very connected to your body so right now — not having reached the point where I am definitely physically pregnant — I feel beautiful being in that space.
“This is what makes me feel best: when I can be in that space and be pregnant, but also be living my life and running around and working hard and being a good mom to my son and just feeling like, ‘Wow, I have all these internal and external factors that are making me feel great.’ ”
