Australia's most anticipated baby is expected to be born on American soil with Nicole Kidman showing no sign of leaving her adopted home as the due date nears.

The actress, who is eight months pregnant, will most likely give birth in a Tennessee hospital or Cedars-Sinai Medical Centre in Los Angeles.

The US tour dates of her country music star husband Keith Urban also point to an American birth, with a break scheduled between a Nashville concert on July 5 and Philadelphia on July 19.

Kidman has said she wants to remain close to her husband in the lead-up to the birth next month and has been spotted "nesting" in her Nashville home.

The Oscar winner may follow the path of long-time friend and fellow actress Naomi Watts, who moved into a multimillion-dollar home in the exclusive Los Angeles suburb of Brentwood shortly before giving birth to her son Alexander in Los Angeles last July.

Kidman and Urban bought a $7.6 million five-bedroom 4.5-bathroom home in Brentwood this year.
