Kim Kardashian predicts she will gain 60 pounds during her pregnancy.

The 32-year-old reality TV star - who is set to give birth to her first child in early July with her rapper boyfriend Kanye West - says that although she has gained less weight than her sister Kourtney, 33, had at this stage while expecting her second child Penelope last year, she thinks she will gain a lot more over the next few months.

She told 'Live! with Kelly and Michael' on Tuesday (26.03.13): ''I've gained 20lbs. At this stage Kourtney had gained 30. I probably will gain those 60 pounds, just give me a couple more months.''

Kim recently admitted that she doesn't mind her body changing, despite working out almost daily to keep her figure trim and toned, because Kanye, 35, loves her growing curves.

She told E! News: ''I think it's really cute now that my belly has popped a little bit. I think it's really a sexy thing; it's cute.

''It's just such an exciting thing for the guys to see our body go through all these different changes. [Kanye] loves it and embraces it and he's helped me feel sexy and embrace it.

''There are maybe two or three covers just this week that say I am 200 pounds. I'm like, 'You are 60 pounds off here'... It wouldn't even bother me if I gained all the weight.''

Kim has been relying on Kourtney, who shares son Mason, three, and daughter Penelope, nine months, with her boyfriend Scott Disick, for advice but hasn't had any cravings for junk food.

She said: ''I couldn't survive without Kourtney. She has given me the best tips about strollers and everything.

''I want to have those cravings, like cheeseburgers, but I haven't. Now I eat healthy I don't know what's going on.''
