Aha! It’s officially time to gear up for Christmas (yippee!), and I admit this year I feel extra crackers about Christmas. As it’s the season of giving, we’ve pulled together

some inspiration with a tree-full of treasures with our Make a Wish product page on p33.

And of course it wouldn’t be winter without a party, whether you’re looking to dress your little ones up (page 14) or on the hunt for some maternity partywear (p37) we’ve got all the motivation you’ll need to shop ’til you drop.

For me, Christmas advocates a sense of pride as we watch our brood enjoying the delights that the festive season brings. But do your share your pride virtually too? Research shows babies born in Britain make their first appearance online within just one hour of birth. We take a look at the media mania with The Rise of Sharenting on page 10.

However there are some things we should share, like how to look, feel and smell(!) great this season. Check out Jenni Baden Howard’s Show Stoppers! on page 22 with some scent-sational new arrivals for mum!

Enjoy the season,

W E L C O M E T O T H E W O R L D

fter being married for seven years, Mark and I decided to try for

a family – and I fell pregnant straight away. We were

delighted, surprised, excited and scared all at the same time.

I loved being pregnant, and I felt great throughout the pregnancy. From about seven and a half months, though, my legs, ankles and feet became very swol-len – looking back, it could've been an early sign of pre-eclampsia. But I was tested at the time, and it was ruled out.

The day before Jack was born, I woke up very early in the morning, thinking that my waters had broken. We went to hospital for an examination, and it turned out that it was just a show. During the examination, the doctor said that my fluid levels had gone up, which, again, could have been a sign of pre-eclampsia. However, it was ruled

out as my blood pressure wasn't raised enough, and I had no protein in my urine. I was allowed to return home.

The following morning, at around 4am, I started getting contractions. They felt very different from the Braxton Hicks that I'd had, and I knew that I was in labour. Mark called the hospital, and they advised me to stay at home until 9am. At 9.30am I went into hospital, and

I was already six centimetres dilated. I’d always wanted a water birth, but

when the time came I completely forgot about it and didn't even think to ask whether the birthing pool was available. Mark was great – supporting me and encouraging me throughout the labour. My midwife had a very calm, relaxing manner about her

which helped immensely. When I was pregnant, Mark and I

always talked about whether our baby would have hair or not when he was born. So the first thing I asked after Jack was born was ‘does he have hair?’ Jack had a full head of black hair, he even had a Mohican, and we thought that he was the most beautiful, most trendy baby on the ward!

About three hours after Jack was born, I got a very bad headache. I told my midwife and she said that she'd give me some paracetamol. The last thing that I remember is the midwife trying to take my blood pressure. From this point onwards, I don't remember a thing. Apparently, I turned to Mark, who was beside me at the time, and told him that I felt weird. Mark didn't even have a chance to respond before I grabbed my heart and started con-vulsing. Within seconds, the midwife pressed the emergency button and ten health professionals entered the room.

AProud parents share their birth experiences with us and

Baby Hampshire welcomes three new arrivals into the world.

Jack Benjamin DawsonSon of Mark and Chantal Dawson

Born on the 8th of January 2013, at Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital, weighing 7lb 15oz

after Jack was born was 'does he have hair?’


Mark and Jack were moved into a corner, and a midwife stayed beside Mark to reassure him. Mark said afterwards that he thought that his worst nightmare about childbirth was coming true – that he'd lose me and have to raise Jack by himself.

Because I’d grabbed my heart, Mark had thought that I might have a blood clot, but in fact I was having an eclamptic seizure. I was given medica-tion to lower my blood pressure, and I also had to have a blood transfusion as my iron levels were very low. I can't

remember any of what happened just before the seizure, or for a period of time after it. Mark was advised to take photos of me on my own, as well as photos of me holding Jack after I regained consciousness, to support me in putting the pieces together when I fully regained consciousness.

The midwives at Basingstoke Hospital were brilliant – we couldn't have asked for better care. Mark was offered dinner, and a bed for the night next to Jack and me. He was able to get up to look after Jack during the

night, as I wasn't well enough. Jack and I stayed in hospital for nearly

a week. When I returned home, my iron levels were still very low and I was anaemic for about three weeks. I had a visit from a midwife or a nurse every other day to check my blood pressure and monitor my progress. Although I felt very unwell, it was lovely to be home with Mark and Jack, and we just took it easy for the first week or two.

We've settled in really well now, and the traumatic events that happened after the birth are almost forgotten. We were given a birth reflections session at Basingstoke Hospital, where the senior midwife, as well as the midwife who had been there when Jack was born, sat us down and took us through what had happened step by step. They also took me into the room where Jack was born so that I could put all the pieces together, in case my memory had not returned fully.

Seeing how fast the last nine months have gone, we realise that it won't be long before Jack's all grown up, and making his own decisions. Our little family is very precious, we do everything together and just enjoy each other's company.

Ifound out that I was pregnant two weeks before we were due to start IVF, after three years of trying for a baby.

I remember the day we found out as if it were yesterday. We had been out the night before, at a friend’s wedding, and had danced the night away. The next morning, though, I had severe abdominal pains and went to A&E. I told the nurse that I was due to start IVF treatment, so I wanted to get everything checked out. She took some tests and left me in an observa-tion room while she tended to other patients. Nearly an hour passed before she came in and announced, with a very big grin on her face, that I was pregnant. She’d checked the results three times to make sure.

I was stunned and overwhelmed, and I burst into tears of joy. The nurse hugged me, and she cried too! I was then rushed to the Early Pregnancy Unit for an ultrasound and an exami-nation, because of the abdominal pain

and a possible risk of ectopic pregnan-cy. Alex had been called, and had been told that I’d been moved to the EPU, but was given no other details.

I saw the sonographer on my own, and within five minutes I’d seen that the gestation sac was fine, and the pregnancy was confirmed. I was then wheeled into the waiting area, where Alex was pacing the floor. He looked concerned, and I smiled, then burst into tears again. “I'm pregnant,” I said.

Although we’d had a tough time con-ceiving, I had a very smooth pregnancy and I enjoyed it immensely. I had mild sickness from 6-8 weeks, and lived on ginger biscuits. I continued to swim up to 28 weeks, and I felt as though I was glowing. Having a winter baby meant that I could curl up with lots of layers and hot chocolate, and hibernate until the baby arrived.

My due date came and went, and all my NCT friends had given birth and relayed their stories of labour. I was eager to see my baby. I’d experienced lots of Braxton Hicks, and I tried everything to spur on labour: eating pineapple and curries, going for long walks, and even playing in the snow. But a week passed, and still nothing.

On the night of the 1st February, I had what felt like period pains and went to bed early. I woke at 1am, thinking that I had Braxton Hicks again. When Alex ran me a bath at 2am, I knew that something was happening – I usually love the water, but I couldn't get comfortable. At 3am we called the maternity ward and I explained my symptoms. I was told to ring back at 6am. I went back to bed with a TENS machine on, but after 30 minutes, I looked at Alex and said, “this is it”.

Alex drove to hospital, with me pant-ing and chanting quietly in the back seat. I was admitted at 4am, by a lovely midwife called Alison. I was 4cm dilat-ed and in active labour. After an hour we were moved to the birthing pool room, where my midwife lit electric candles, dimmed the lights, and Alex rubbed my back.

The pool was lovely and warm, and every time a contraction came I breathed it out and chanted ‘re-lax’ while leaning over the side. This went on for three hours. During the shift

change at 8am, I overheard one of the new midwives say that it wouldn't be long, and this spurred me on and gave me extra energy. I wasn't offered any gas and air, or painkillers, and I com-pletely forgot that they were there.

At 8.30am I felt the need to push, and I tried several positions to help the baby out. Isabella arrived at 8.56am. I

found the whole experience very pos-itive – during the final thirty minutes the pain was unbearable, but I knew that the end was in sight and this gave me the motivation to carry on. I held Isabella in my arms to keep her warm. She was slightly blue, but very serene and calm.

During the day, Isabella slept on my chest, feeding when she needed to. I loved those first few hours, the closeness we had, and the sense of accomplishment and joy. We were discharged that evening, after the mid-wives were happy that Isabella was latching on and feeding well.

The first night at home, we were nervous about what lay ahead. Isabella slept for an hour at a time, waking to feed, and for the first couple of weeks she slept on me or close by in her Moses basket. Breastfeeding was exhausting, but worth it, and Alex and I took turns looking after her. It was a full-time job.

The biggest challenge was adapting to the new lifestyle. Both Alex and I are very sociable creatures and we love to travel. Occasionally we get to go out on date nights and leave her with her dot-ing grandparents and friends. We've already braved taking her on a plane to Southern Ireland and we'd love her to see as much of the world as possible.

Having a winter baby meant that I could curl up with lots of layers and hot chocolate, and hibernate until the baby arrived.


Isaac Samy BrunetSon of Pema and Samuel BrunetBorn on the 28th of March 2013

At home in Hambledon, weighing 7lb 8ozBrother to Jamie, 2½

Before I had my first child, Jamie, I worked as a community warden at a nature reserve on the Isle of Wight, taking children

of all ages to explore wildlife on the coast. We lived on the island, and Sam-uel commuted to work on the mainland.

When I was pregnant with Jamie, the biggest thing we did to prepare was change our car. This time we felt that we had no choice but to move house. Samuel comes from a large family, and he felt that the commute to the main-land was diminishing his family time, and his opportunity to be a hands-on father.

Having another little one on the way hastened this decision. We found a lovely home in Hambledon, and moved when I was 27 weeks pregnant. People here have been very welcom-ing, and we can walk to the play area and pre-school easily. We have coun-tryside and lovely views, which help to offset our pangs of homesickness for the island.

When I found out that I was preg-

nant again I stopped my extended breastfeeding of Jamie – I felt that my body couldn’t do both things at the same time. I had a lot of nausea, but, somehow, with the distraction of a toddler, I survived with minimal nap-ping and plenty of healthy eating.

At 37 weeks I was diagnosed with obstetric cholestasis. It’s a nightmare of a condition which causes intense itching. I’d been through it in my previ-ous pregnancy, and this time, although I had high bile acid levels, I didn’t feel as bad as I could have. I knew more about what to expect, and when and where to get help and support.

Once I was ill with the cholestasis, we went into Queen Alexandra Hospital in Portsmouth for weekly monitoring, and I took medication. I considered an early induction, but having received test results and taken advice, I decided to wait until my original due date.

I was planning to use a doula for support on the labour ward, and I found a lovely lady called Sue, who has five children of her own and was happy to be on standby for this, or in case I needed a babysitter for Jamie at short notice.

I thought I would have another couple of weeks, at least, as Jamie had been eight days late, but a week before my due date I was feeling rather uncomfortable in bed, and in the early hours of the morning I woke Samuel up to keep me company. We messed about, looking for magazines and books on the Kindle he'd got me for Christmas, and I then had what I thought were false labour pains.

Samuel suggested that maybe my real labour had started, and also suggested that we call Sue over to look after Jamie. I was adamant that

I wasn’t in pain, and didn’t want to waste people's time. Samuel remem-bered me saying something similar when I had Jamie, so he ignored me and phoned Sue anyway!

After phoning Sue, we realised that I was having regular contractions and Samuel put my hospital bag into the car. By the time Sue knocked on the door, ready to look after Jamie, I couldn’t even face getting down the stairs. I was rocking and singing myself through the contractions which, though intense, were not as painful as I remembered from my previous

labour. My waters still hadn't broken. Samuel and Sue called 999. Fortu-

nately, a midwife was able to help over the phone, while an ambulance was called. At this point I was hanging off the towel rail in our en-suite, feeling the urge to push the baby out. I was panicking because I’d planned to be in hospital, not at home without even a midwife to help if my medical condi-tion caused problems.

All I remember after that is Sue ask-ing me how I was feeling, and Samuel helping me onto the bed, so the baby wouldn't arrive in the toilet or on the bathroom floor. In one big rush, Isaac

was born on the bed. My waters broke as he was born. A few minutes later the ambulance crew arrived and I was transferred to hospital with Isaac, so that I could have a managed third stage of labour and have my blood pressure monitored.

It was a low moment, in the am-bulance on a cold March morning, without Samuel or Sue, hoping my little baby would keep breathing and not get cold. Once I was at the hospital I overcame my fear, got through the third stage, and felt relaxed enough to bond and breastfeed with Isaac. Sam-

uel joined me there, and between my blood pressure being monitored and routine baby checks, we fell in love with our new arrival, who didn't seem too bothered by his swift birth. We were treated like experienced parents by the hospital midwives, because on the birth report it said ‘baby delivered by patient's husband’ – he had saved them a job!

We were given a lovely quiet, big room where I could recover and we stayed there until we were released in the evening. By then I felt amazing – on top of the world. I’d entered the hospital on a bumpy hospital trolley,

feeling like a scared child holding on to her baby for dear life; but I left feeling like a heroine, with a snugly wrapped bundle in a car seat.

The months since Isaac's birth have been so much better than I expected. I’d worried about coping with two children in nappies, but, actually, I'm enjoying their antics. Since Isaac was born we’ve had much more family time, and Samuel has spent more evenings and weekends with us, now he no longer has the island-mainland commute.

At this point I was hanging off the towel rail in our ensuite, feeling the urge to push the baby out.


The delivery suite was once a private space for parents to welcome their new addition into the world. But no longer. Since the

advent of social media, mothers and fathers have been inviting friends, fam-ily, colleagues and passing acquaint-ances to share this precious moment – not literally, but virtually.

Research shows babies born in Britain make their first appearance online within an hour of birth. Almost

two thirds of parents (62 per cent) post pictures on Facebook, Instagram, Flickr and other sites, and they take an average of 57.9 minutes to do so.

As anyone on Facebook knows, more and more of us regularly upload imag-

es of our children and updates about their antics. Commissioned by print site Posterista, the poll of 2,367 parents of under-fives saw a whopping 64 per cent claim they upload such images at least three times a week. One in five do so at least three times a month, while only six per cent said they never post images of their children.

The motives for the phenomenon – dubbed sharenting - are varied. More than half (56 per cent) said they did so to keep distant friends and family up-dated; nearly as many (49 per cent) do it to express their love for their child; a

third (34 per cent) believe it is an ideal way to store memories; while more than one in five (22 per cent) admit it is a form of bragging.

Back in September, American Amy Webb, head of digital strategy agency Webbmedia Group, posted a feature on web magazine Slate, about why she and her partner will never post information about their daughter online. She said it was the only way to protect her child against facial recognition, Facebook profiling, and corporate data mining, and suggested the tendency to sharent is robbing our children of their anonymity. Her article proved highly controversial, with many reacting angrily to the sug-gestion that they had compromised their children. So how much thought should we give this issue?

We asked psychologist and biologist Aric Sigman, who has written exten-sively on the health implications of excessive screen time.

The father-of-four said, “There are good things that can come from using a social tool to aid you in a healthy way, but it seems to be displacing a lot of social face to face interaction.

“As we all know, mothers encounter more of a sense of isolation, particularly

as many do not have that extended sup-port network around them anymore. A lot of women feel exposed and out of sync with the rest of society and social networking may fill some of those gaps. However, it has been overused by a lot of people from all different demographics in our society, from children to teenag-ers and new parents.”

Dr Sigman is less about the content, than the amount of time we spend online.

“Non-essential screen time is a huge health and mental health issue,” he says.

The physical down side of this sed-entary pastime is obvious, but there is also an emotional aspect as a growing number of people develop a “depend-ency” on social media.

Dr Sigman says, “Facebook and social networking offers a form of social comparison. Previously people would do that with real people who

lived nearby, but on Facebook you can big yourself up to anyone you want and people use it as a social marketing tool. It is the virtual version of keeping up with the Joneses – but it isn’t the same.”

“It leaves out a lot of nuances that might not go missing if you were speaking to your friend on the phone. One effect is competitiveness which leaves some people feeling like win-ners and others like losers.”

He adds, “There’s nothing wrong with using social networking to do what

you used to do with an envelope and a stamp, like sending images of your baby to your loved ones, but what can be a tool also ends up being a burden if it’s misused or over-used.”

“We need to get the balance right. Screen time is a form of consumption, just like salt, sugar or anything else, so we should think carefully about the

RESOURCES

Advice for parents on safe and sensible social networking

• Think twice before accepting somebody as a friend. Would you want that person to access information and pictures of your children?

• Regularly check on your friends list to ensure that you are hap-py sharing private information with them. Only give informa-tion out to people you consider friends in the real world.

• Carefully consider each picture on its own merit. Is it really necessary to show toddlers on the potty or in the bath?

• Consider cropping or editing pictures to make them more suitable for online use.

• Are you posting too much about your children? Over-shar-enting may lead people to defriend you.

• The same can be said for bragging. Avoid the tempta-tion to tell everyone how you squeezed yourself into your skinny jeans two weeks after giving birth.

• Share your thoughts about sharenting with grandparents. If you do not want images of your children online, make sure they understand that.

• Avoid creating a sense of isolation by limiting the time you spend online. It will also set a good example for your children.

amount of our consumption.”Part-time teacher Esther Bitan Spitzer has been a member of Facebook for more than a decade, but the 27-year-old rarely posts pictures or details of her toddler son.

She says, “There isn't much good that can come of it. It can upset childless friends or those struggling with sec-ondary infertility. I don't see the point of sticking my little one’s pictures all over everyone's screens. Children are too innocent for that.”

“I also steer away from the 'young mum competition', where they are obsessed with which baby reached the next milestone first and worry themselves silly if their baby is three weeks ‘late’.”

Privacy is also an important issue. Esther says, “Once a picture is online anyone can get hold of it, blow it up, use it to do what they want and the thoughts of someone using my baby's innocent pictures for immoral purpos-es creep me out.”

Mother-of-two Charlotte Antoniou describes herself as a “fully fledged Facebook addict”, but her experience has not always been a positive one.

The horticultural therapist from north London was totally against the site and people who sharented, but all that changed with the arrival of her second daughter two years ago.

She says, “I thought it could be dan-gerous putting things up and opening yourself up to everybody. Those were my initial feelings, but then I realised there were lots of things happening that I didn’t know about because I wasn’t on Facebook, so I thought I should join.”

Charlotte posted regular updates about her children and how happy they all were. Or at least that was how

it looked.Speaking candidly, she admits,

“Looking back on it, I was going through a difficult time with post-na-tal illness and perhaps looked to Facebook to portray this mummy who was having an amazing time with her children. Yet inside I wasn't.”

“Coping with this double virtual life as well as public/private persona was physically and mentally exhausting. The more positive and happy my posts were, the more unhappy I was.”

When Charlotte was diagnosed with post natal depression, Facebook actu-ally turned out to be her saviour as she discovered a private members’ group for women with the condition.

She says, “All the ladies on there had, or were going through, post-na-tal illness. It helped so much in my recovery.”

Fortunately Sarah Linton-Walls does not share Charlotte’s problem, but she has found the site equally helpful as a first time mum. She belongs to Monster Mummies, a private group for women who had all expected their babies in September 2011.

More than two years later, many regularly meet or update each other about their children’s progress.

She says, “I do post pictures of my son on Facebook, but I might just post them on the Monster Mummies group rather than my own page, as I’m not sure they’d be very interesting for anyone else.”

She adds, “If I think back to all those sleepless nights, it was such a comfort to have loads of other mums on Face-book to chat to. It was so much more useful than any website or book.”

Beauty Editor’sTop Tips

Top make-up artist Dani Guinsberg’s work has graced the pages of glossies including Vogue and Marie Claire. She is Founder of The Session School in London (thesessionschool.com), which offers one-to-one, professional make-up les-sons for women of all ages (this winter, our readers will receive a 20% off all con-sultations and workshops).Here, a few expert tips from Dani on taking your make-up from ‘day to night’, on-the-go!

For a quick, flawless face, opt for a quick dusting of Bella Pierre Pure Mineral Loose Foundation (£34.99) using a large, fluffy brush. This will create a flawless make-up base that will last all night. Easy!

A dab of Pixi’s Cheek Gel (£12) in Rosy, applied with fingertips, will give you a healthy flush of colour and glow.

Create smoky, evening eyes with dark grey or choc-olate brown eyeliner. Use the liner close to the lashes and smudge with a cotton bud or small eyeliner brush. Flattering and instantly glamorous!

Opt for a modern red lip by using a stain instead of full-on colour. Revlon's Just Bitten Lip Stain + Balms (£7.99 each) are amazing and take five seconds to ap-ply with the added benefits of being long-lasting and smudge-resistant!

Get party-gorgeous in minutes, look less tired instantly & give your hair a touch of winter glam...

For instant radiance, apply a liquid

highlighter to the tops of the cheekbones,

browbones and on the Cupid’s bow of your lips. Try Smashbox’s

Halo Highlighting Wand (£25).

Indulge in a hydrating and

radiance-boosting mask like Decleor Flash Radiance

Mask (£29), which works in 3 minutes.

Annabel Karmel'sWinter Weaning Coming up with purée

ideas in the winter involves a bit more thought as there is less seasonal fruit and vegetables available to us. However there are some delicious ingredients you can easily get hold of in winter that combined make purées bursting with flavours that will have you eating up any left overs! Inspired by my favourite home-cooked recipes, my stage 1 and 2 organic baby purées and new tasty sauces are ideal for when time is not on your side (available at Sainsbury’s).

W O R D S : A N N A B E L K A R M E L

Adding fruit such as plums or apricot can make a plain apple purée a little more interesting, but I love the mixture of pear and apple, this makes a lovely simple first fruit purée.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 RIPE PEAR, PEELED,CORED AND DICED

• 1 EATING APPLE, SUCH AS SPARTAN OR PINK LADY, PEELED, CORED AND DICED

• 2 TBSP WATER

METHOD

Put the diced apple and pear in a saucepan with the water. Bring to the boil, then cover, reduce the heat to low, and cook gently for about 10

minutes or until the fruits are all soft.

Cool slightly, then tip into a blender and purée until smooth. Serve warm, or cool quickly and chill in the fridge before serving.

The purée can be frozen in individual portions; thaw for 1 - 2 hours at room temperature when needed.
