Dr. Nicole Martin Shares a Powerful Message About Body Changes During Pregnancy
The Real Housewives of Miami cast member, pregnant with baby No. 2, is not letting "trolls" get to her.
Dr. Nicole Martin's second pregnancy has been filled with equal parts celebration and struggle.
The Real Housewives of Miami cast member announced that she was expecting her second child with fiancé, Anthony Lopez, in early November 2023. Just days later, Nicole announced that her father, Miguel, passed away.
Still, Nicole, who is the mom to a 4-year-old son, Greyson, has found reasons to smile through it all. In January, she revealed that they will be welcoming a baby girl into the world come April, and Greyson could not be any more excited.
"He's the one that was really like, 'Can I have a baby sister?' He was very adamant and specific that he wanted a baby sister...," she told Us Weekly in November 2023. "But he wanted a baby sister because he felt like he wouldn't have to share his toys if it was a girl."

Although Nicole has shared a lot about her pregnancy over the past few months, and has received so much support, she is now responding to any comments about her appearance and body changes amid her pregnancy. Read on to hear what Nicole had to say when one commenter pointed out a prominent feature of hers.
Dr. Nicole Martin's Response to "Trolls" Amid Pregnancy
Nicole took to Instagram on Saturday, Feb. 24, where she posted a photo of herself decked out in cozy clothes while spending time indoors in Aspen, Colorado. The expecting mom and anesthesiologist looked fabulous in her brown coat, furry headband, and oversized sunglasses while rocking a glossy pout.
"Mountain life....is good," she wrote in the caption of the post. "If you can't ski, you may as well have fun getting dressed!"
But one commenter criticized her pout, writing that her lips were so big they were "trying to match her stomach." Nicole defended herself, firing back that "it's called pregnancy."
Nicole took to her Instagram story after writing that comment, where she shared some helpful information. She wrote, "Did you know that pregnant patients are 10 times more likely to have difficulty with airway management during general anesthesia due to pregnancy related changes to their oral airway?"
She continued to explain her slight change in appearance, noting that she normally "doesn't engage with trolls" but this time was different.
"I felt the need to say something, because as beautiful as pregnancy is, it is also a very challenging time, and a lot of women's lives, you know, you're going through hormonal changes, your body is going through all these changes, you're exhausted, you're not feeling well, and it's challenging in and of itself," she said.
"We don't need people commenting on how your nose has changed, your lips have changed, your belly is so big, are you having twins, when are you due," she explained. "Like, it's just not helpful in any way, shape, or form, so if you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all."
Dr. Nicole Martin's Pregnancy Beauty Treatment That She's "Obsessed" With
Nicole hasn't just been spending time in Aspen during her pregnancy but has enjoyed paying a visit to the spa to pamper herself.
Nicole paid a visit to Refine Health Miami in January, where she was pampered with a facial for her pregnancy bump, where an aesthetician was seen steaming, exfoliating, and massaging her stomach before finishing it off with a Hydro Jelly Mask.
"Am I the only one who didn't know about belly facials?!?," Nicole wrote on her Instagram Story at the time. "I'm obsessed! If we are friends and you're pregnant, know this is your pregnancy gift."
Part 1 of The Real Housewives of Miami Season 6 Reunion airs on Bravo on Wednesday, Feb. 28 at 9/8c. You can stream the uncensored version the next day on Peacock.
