Naomi Watts

Naomi Watts is astonished she has managed to lose all her baby weight just two months after giving birth to her second son - because she hasn't exercised once.

I have lost 75 per cent of my brain power. It halved and then halved again. It's not just the sleep deprivation

Watts and partner Liev Schreiber welcomed little Samuel in December (08), just 17 months after the birth of their first child, Alexander.

And the 40-year-old insists she has reclaimed her pre-pregnancy figure without lifting a finger and without the need for any fad diets.

She says, "I haven't even done much exercise yet (and) I eat more now than I did when I was pregnant!"

Meanwhile Watts is convinced her two young sons are ruining her acting career, because caring for them is making her stupid.

The actress gave birth to Samuel, her second child with partner Liev Schreiber, back in December (08) - just 17 months after their first son Alexander was born.

And the British-born star admits nurturing two children under the age of two is draining her mentally.

Watts says, "I have lost 75 per cent of my brain power. It halved and then halved again. It's not just the sleep deprivation, it's the breast feeding. I call it the lactose lobotomy."

And it's having an affect on her acting: "Now I can never remember my dialogue when I'm working."
