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,

e had both

always been keen

to have a family, and in

the early days of dating, Andy and I had shared that desire with each other. Over time, it became clear that it was something which we wanted to do together. We were delighted, though rather sur-prised, by how quickly I became preg-nant – we’d only decided that the time was right a couple of weeks before.

I had a pretty straightforward pregnancy. I suffered from sickness in the early days, but a few chocolate chip cookies here and there helped with that! I’m also rhesus negative, so I needed extra injections and hospital check-ups.

The labour didn't go entirely accord-ing to plan. Around two weeks before my due date I had some bleeding, and I was admitted to hospital as a pre-caution. I spent four days in hospital, then they decided to induce me. After a few attempts, with a variety of drugs,

I finally went into labour. The hospital and midwives were

amazing, but it wasn't smooth sailing. I had been pushing for a couple of hours at full dilation, when Monty started to show signs of distress. The doctor decided to prepare me for a ventouse delivery – in an operating theatre, in case an emergency c-section was required. After I arrived in the first the-atre an emergency c-section for twins was prioritised, so I had to leave that theatre and wait in a holding area.

I was taken into a second operating theatre, where it was decided that I needed an episiotomy to help Monty out, because he was pushing into my pelvis. The epidural hadn’t been 100% effective, so I could feel some of this. There was no crying when Monty was delivered, and he was taken into a corner by the paediatric crash team,

The hospital and midwives were amazing,

to get his breathing started. After what seemed like an eternity, but was proba-bly only five or ten minutes, Monty was breathing properly, and he was briefly handed to Andy and me, before being taken to the special care unit.

It was a long and tiring night, but Andy had been by my side the whole time – apart from when he went out to buy himself and the midwives some doughnuts! After the birth Andy went with Monty to special care, while I had stitches and waited for news in the recovery wing. I think Andy feels a special bond with Monty as a result of being with him for those first few difficult hours.

Happily, both Monty and I were fine. We were each given a course of antibiotics, and were discharged after a couple of days. I wanted to get home as soon as possible - though the support from the midwives after the birth, such as their advice on the best ways to feed

a newborn, was very valuable.It felt slightly surreal when we came

home, but Monty slept through the whole thing. Now it feels as though he’s

been with us for much longer than four months – in a good way! Like every new parent, we think our little boy is perfect.

Austin and I are teach-ers, and we met when we were both on a training placement at the same secondary

school. We lived together, got married, and bought a house – having a baby was naturally the next step. That little box room was crying out to be turned into a nursery.

We were very private about our de-sire to start a family. We’d been trying for a while, and when we saw the positive test we were both overjoyed, and disbelieving.

Up to week 33, my pregnancy was a dream. I loved my bump, and I loved being pregnant and showing it off. Then week 33 hit – with an inspection at work and incredibly hot weather. My feet ballooned! They were very painful, and I was beginning to get more tired and stressed at work. Because I’d felt so well previously, I’d intended to work up to week 38, but by week 35 I felt like a crazed woman – on a mission to get things sorted at work, working late, and perhaps doing too much.

On the Thursday of that week, I started to notice that I was leaking a bit at the end of the day. I convinced

myself that it was my bladder, as everyone had said that by eight months you could hardly control it. I kept it to myself and just carried a spare pair of pants around with me.

The following Monday morning, I went for my 36 week check-up with the midwife. When I mentioned the wet-ness to her she said that it was most likely my waters leaking out because the baby’s head was in place. I listened to her explanation, but I couldn’t

believe it – I was only 36 weeks and, besides my swollen feet, I felt fine.

I left the appointment and went to work as normal. But while I was at work I googled my symptoms, and I was shocked by the horror stories online. When Austin picked me up that evening, I told him the situation. I then called the hospital and they said to come to straight in. When we got there it was confirmed that my waters had broken, and that I’d been risking major infection for five days. They wanted to induce me straight away.

We were shocked. Our NCT teacher had said to be ready at 37 weeks, and we were not at all ready at 36!

We were in our work clothes, we had no bags packed, and we hadn’t even completed our pre-baby shopping. We managed to convince the doctor to let us go home, so that we could shower, eat and pack things. We were stressed, but also strangely calm – and excited that we were going to see our baby much sooner than we’d expected.

They inserted the induction drug at 2am, and left me on a ward to try and sleep. At 8am they had to insert a new

one, and after that things worked very quickly. It took me by surprise – we’d settled down to a game of Scrabble, thinking that we would have to wait out the day, but we only completed four turns before I was in too much pain to play.

Austin was incredibly supportive – calm and reliable throughout. He was really good at talking me through the contractions, and he had a timer app on his phone, which was incredibly useful. He was great at instilling confi-dence in me, when I thought I couldn't do it, he made me believe that I could.

Our ideal would have been a water birth, but as I had to be induced, that

immediately went out of the window. It didn't matter, though. The midwives talked us through each step, giving us options but also telling us what would happen next – the situation took over and we just did what was best for the baby. When Baden was born we felt amazement and joy, but also relief – I think neither of us had admitted how scary this induction and early birth had been.

We stayed in hospital for the fol-lowing two nights. The main focus was on getting Baden feeding. It took some work, lots of advice, and a few tears to get us feeling confident and ready to go home. We’d never realised how time consuming and emotional breastfeeding can be. It’s really daunt-ing, having come out of labour totally exhausted, to then have to focus on waking your baby every two hours to attempt to feed.

It had been heart-wrenching, having to stay alone on the ward without each other, and it was a relief, as well as exciting, to be able to go home. It just felt right – coming home to our little Edwardian terraced house and being together as a family for a whole night. It was great to be a proper mum and dad, and to have our son to take care of.

Austin had the six week summer holiday with us, which was a fantas-tic family experience, but it was also a time of major learning. Austin is back at work now, and Baden and I are finding our routine; making new friends and starting new activities. Sutton is a great place to have a baby, the midwife and health visitor services are really good and the local children's centres offer loads of activi-ties and opportunities.

I left the appointment and went to work as normal. But while I was at work I googled my symptoms, and I was shocked by the horror stories online.

A lthough we’d always known that we wanted to have children, Mark and I had thought that it might prove difficult.

I was diagnosed with endometriosis when I was seventeen, and I’ve had four operations and had to take a drug which caused me to go through a false menopause – it’s very strange having hot flushes in your twenties!

When I fell pregnant in 2010, I sank to my knees and cried with happiness. I was in labour for three days with my first child, Lara. My birth plan went completely out of the window, and I ended up having pethidine and an epidural. During the weeks after having Lara I felt very sick, and I finally discovered that I had retained placen-ta – I was very lucky that this didn’t have a more serious outcome.

It was quite a surprise, sixteen months later, to find out that I was pregnant again. I didn’t tell anyone for the first two days. I felt that I wanted some time to think about how life was going to be with two babies, plus I felt a bit anxious after the difficult birth

and recovery I’d had with Lara. Mark was over the moon when I

told him. He’d always wanted to have children about two years apart, so that they could play together when they were little. He said ‘well, at least we’ve learnt from the last experience to go in and get an epidural as soon as possible.’ I told him that I was going in with exactly the same birth plan as the

first time. I wanted to have another at-tempt at my dream birth: in a birthing pool, with just gas and air.

Apart from a few cramps at the beginning, the pregnancy went really well. I had much more energy than I’d had with Lara and I managed to keep going to the gym regularly. Towards the end of the pregnancy, though, we

had some devastating news: Mark’s mother, Carol, was diagnosed with cancer and was given months to live. It was so hard knowing that soon after our baby was born, Carol was going to be leaving us.

Towards the end of the pregnancy my sister, Amy, came to stay and help out. My due date arrived, and Amy and I went to the gym for a very low inten-sity workout – I found that regular ex-ercise helped me both physically and emotionally. Three days later, I decided that it was time to do a big food shop, so we set off. I’d been having cramps for a couple of days but nothing I couldn’t deal with. I also felt a bit sick. I had a cup of tea on the sofa when we got home, and decided to go to bed for a rest. As I stood up, I had a dropping sensation and my waters broke.

Fortunately, Mark was working from home that day. We, very calmly, packed up some bits and set off for the hospital. When we arrived they said that we could either go home and wait for the contractions to become strong-er and more regular, or stay in hospi-tal. They said that second time round

things could happen quite quickly, and Mark felt that it was safer to stay. Two hours later I was labouring in the birthing pool, with gas and air.

At one stage the pain got pretty intense and I told the midwife that I thought it was time to get out of the water and have some drugs. The midwife said ‘I wouldn’t if I were you, I reckon your baby will be making an appearance within half an hour.’ Mark whispered words of encouragement into my ear and it was quite amazing – my body just seemed to take over, and the contractions and pushing came hand in hand. It only took a few pushes, then I lifted my beautiful baby boy out of the water. His arms were outstretched and we sat there holding each other. It was one of the most magical moments of my life: I had had my dream birth.

Leo and I went home the following day. I was pretty busy during the next few weeks, spending as much time as I could with Carol, and recovering. She was so proud of our little girl and boy. We decided to have Leo’s christening as soon as we could so that she could be there. Shamley Green, where we live, is such a special village – everyone pulled together to help us arrange it. Leo was christened when he was just ten weeks old, and it was wonderful to have all of our family present.

Carol’s health deteriorated fairly quickly, and when my sisters-in-law were feeling particularly low they would have a cuddle from Leo for

strength – he was our angel. We were all there when she passed away. I had just fed Leo, and he slept innocently in the room, snoring. It was strangely comforting to hear him.

Mark and I have experienced some of the saddest and happiest moments of our lives together. Leo and Lara will grow up knowing how special and loved they are, and what a strong,

amazing woman their grandma was. There’s a lot of laughter in our house

from all the funny and entertaining things our babies do. Of course, there are challenging times, but they’re defi-nitely outnumbered by the good times. We feel blessed to have been able to bring two amazing, happy, healthy little people into this world and we’ll never take that for granted.

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.
