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

Andy and I met in 1999, while we were out clubbing in London. We started dating, and got

engaged seven years later. We were married in Mauritius in 2008.

In 2011 we decided to move house, and bought a renovation project. To our surprise, within weeks of turning the new house into a building site, we discovered that we were expecting our � rst baby! I’d been using an app to record my monthly cycle and when I checked it, I realised that I was about four days late. I took a test, then called Andy immediately. I wasn’t convinced by the result so on my way to work I bought six more pregnancy tests – I took three, and they were all positive!

We were both very happy. We’d planned to start a family at some

point, if perhaps not quite so soon af-ter starting renovations to our home. Fortunately Andy is a director of a local carpentry and building company, so no time was wasted in getting the work underway.

Generally, the pregnancy went well. We invested in 3D and 4D scans, and discovered that we were expecting a boy, which we were overjoyed about. All of our baby-related purchases were kept at my parents’, as the nursery was under construction.

I was just three days into my materni-ty leave when I went into labour – at 37 weeks. It was half past midnight, and I went into hospital, but was sent back home. When I got home the labour be-came stronger, although never painful, and by 4.30am I felt ready to push.

I was convinced that the baby was going to be born then and there on the bedroom � oor! With Andy’s help we made it into the car, but I requested that

we go straight to the hospital and not pick up my mum, Marva, who was also going to be my birthing partner. Fortu-nately Andy didn’t listen to me. I have a very special relationship with my mum, and Andy knew that I would regret not having her at the birth of my � rst baby – I’m very thankful that he did.

We arrived at the Princess Anne Hospital at around 5.30am and, when I was examined, the midwife could already see our baby boy making his entrance. He arrived at 6.30am, after a natural birth. We were totally shocked, but overwhelmed with happiness. I’d been planning to give birth on the Broadlands Ward but we only made it as far as the main labour ward. As the sta� there aren't used to my kind of labour they took a photo of Ronnie for their scrap book!

We hadn’t agreed on a name but Andy was adamant that he would be called Ronnie. Caught in the moment,

Proud parents share their birth experiences with us and Baby Hampshire welcomes three new arrivals into the world.

I agreed. I don’t regret it, because it suits him perfectly.

� e following afternoon, we were sent home – but due to Ronnie’s un-expectedly early arrival his room still wasn’t ready, so we made a trip to my parents’ house en route and collected some clothes and essentials.

We absolutely love being parents. It’s a life changing experience, though.

Before Ronnie was born we had a very carefree existence, and now we need to plan so far ahead! We’re grateful to have such supportive friends and family – Andy's dad spent the � rst week of Ronnie's life decorating his nursery, and his mum cleaned and took us out when I wasn't able to drive. Ronnie also has numerous godmoth-ers who are very loving to him and

spoil him endlessly.My family are from Nicaragua,

and many of them, including one of Ronnie's godmothers, live in Miami. We look forward to getting Ronnie’s � rst passport and introducing him to the rest of his family very soon. Andy is also a keen snowboarder, and he can't wait to get Ronnie on the slopes when he's old enough.

It was 2006, and I was studying at Portsmouth University, when I met Chris. I’d been planning to go travelling after my gradu-ation and, when my travelling

partner pulled out, Chris stepped in. We backpacked around Europe and while we were in So� a, Bulgaria, I realised that he was ‘the one’.

On our return we bought our � rst home together, and we got married in July 2008. We’d both said that we wanted to have children, but I was surprised by how keen I was to start a family as soon as we were married. Chris didn’t take much persuading, but it took us two years to conceive Leo. During this time I established my career, Chris started a new career, and we had lots more travelling adventures together.

We live in Langley, close to where we both grew up. Our friends and family are all nearby, and we love raising our children so close to the forest and the beach.

Having waited a while for Leo, we were very shocked that Imogen came

2_BH_Front (20-42).indd 22 02/08/2013 14:54

LO C A L FA M I LY L I F E S T Y L E | 23

along so quickly, but we were both overjoyed. We didn’t � nd out the sex as we’d known that Leo was a boy from week 16 of the pregnancy, and we thought that it would be nice to expe-rience a pregnancy not knowing.

I planned to have a home birth. However, at 37 weeks we found out that Imogen was breech. We had an unsuccessful ECV and were advised to have an elective caesarean. We were disappointed not to be able to have the home birth, but having a date booked in for the baby to be born made preparations much easier, espe-cially in terms of childcare for Leo.

Driving to the hospital early in the morning was a bizarre experience, because we knew that we would soon meet our baby. I was � rst on the list and went into theatre at 8.30am. Everything was very calm and civilised – very di� erent from Leo’s natural delivery. We’d spent time researching caesarean births, and we were keen for it to be as natural and peaceful as possible. � e theatre sta� were very accommodating and did everything they could to help. We listened to Jack

Johnson, we had the lights dimmed, and everyone was quiet for the moment of her birth, so that the � rst voices she heard were ours.

� e screen was lowered and we were given time to � nd out her sex for ourselves. It felt as though it took an eternity to comprehend that she was a girl, but it was probably less than a minute in reality. We were so shocked, we both kept crying and saying ‘she’s a girl’ to each other.

Although it wasn’t at home as we’d planned, Imogen’s birth was a very positive experience. Chris was very supportive throughout – very involved in my pregnancy, delivery, recovery and helping with Imogen once we were home. I’m very lucky to have him.

I was still numb from the epidural for a while after the birth, so I spent a lovely snuggly day with Imogen tucked inside my nightdress, feeding as and when she liked. We didn’t dress her until the afternoon, when lots of fam-ily and friends came in to meet her. I wasn’t in any discomfort at all, and everyone kept saying that I didn’t look as though I’d just had a baby.

Once the numbness wore o� , though, the recovery was much harder than I’d anticipated. It seemed as though everyone else on the ward was walking around as normal within 24 hours, but I was in agony even attempting to shu� e more than a few steps. I came home after three days, armed with lots of painkillers, and it was ten days before I felt able to leave the house and re-join the rest of the world in normal activities.

Chris was amazing. He took a month o� work and did everything for Leo, Imogen and me, so that all I had to do was concentrate on establishing breastfeeding and getting as much sleep as possible. For the � rst few days after Chris went back to work we did very little, but it wasn’t long before we were out and about as normal, attending baby groups and having lots of days out.

We decided to make the most of my maternity leave and get a puppy. As much as we all adore Dexter, in hindsight I think this was perhaps a step too far – puppies are much harder work than babies! Having Dexter means that we get out for a walk at least once a day, on muddy days, when I can’t use the pushchair, I strap Immie to my front and Leo to my back. I get lots of comments about ‘having my hands full’, but I absolutely love every moment of our life and I wouldn’t change a thing. Having the children and the dog so close in age can be challenging, but it’s lovely seeing them grow up together. Now that our family is complete we can just concentrate on enjoying it.

Initially, Will and I were just friends, but after a couple of years our relationship blossomed – and three months later we were living together. We got engaged after a year, and were mar-

ried a year after that. We both knew that we wanted to have children, and that we wanted to be married before we started a family.

We were extremely excited when we discovered that I was pregnant with our second child. Being pregnant was hard work, with a toddler running around – there was no resting when I was tired, or crawling into bed when I felt sick – and I felt sick all day and all night until 14 weeks!

I'm slight and my bump was tiny (as it had been during my � rst pregnan-cy) so I was given a few growth scans to check that the baby was healthy. We had a scare at around 25 weeks when I slipped over at the swimming

pool. Our daughter, Willow, banged her head and I split my elbow open, but fortunately, four hours later, the hospital gave us all the all clear.

We decided not to � nd out the sex of the baby – we wanted another sur-prise. We dug out all the unisex baby clothes and got the crib out the loft. We created contingency plans so that no matter when I went into labour Willow would be looked after until we

were all home together. We made a list of everything that we wanted to do be-fore the baby arrived, from sorting and reorganising, to DIY and things to buy – because we knew that we wouldn't have any time once the baby was here. We thought we were ready!

My waters broke in bed, at 3am, on my due date. I woke Will to tell him but he didn't believe me because there was nowhere near as much � uid as there had been with Willow. We spent the next few hours timing contrac-tions and, at 9am, we dropped Willow with our good friends, Helen and Pete, and made our way to the hospital.

� e birth took nine hours from start to � nish although I’d expected it to be quicker! Every time I sat or lay down my contractions stopped, so I spent a lot of time walking around. Will was amazing throughout. He was

really supportive, and tried to help me through it with jokes and massages - though during contractions I just wanted silence! After two and a half hours of panting and pacing, I eventu-ally delivered standing up, leaning over the bed.

Logan’s umbilical cord was very short, so we had to be re-positioned on the bed before we could have a cuddle. Will had been too emotional to cut the cord at Willow's birth, but he cut Lo-gan's expertly. We were so relieved that Logan had arrived safely, and we were stunned by his beauty, and amazed at his long � ngers and nails, as well as his full head of hair – Willow had been

practically bald. I felt less battered and bruised the second time around, and luckily I didn’t need any stitches, though my legs and back ached from all the pacing during labour.

We were back at home in Colden Common just four hours after Logan arrived. We were relieved to be home and felt ready to start our new family life. Willow had decided that she was getting a little sister and had nick-named her Sweet Pea - so it was a little confusing for her that the baby in mummy’s tummy was now here, and was not the girl that she had been expecting! In the early days she had

moments of jealousy, but she quickly became the loving big sister that we knew she would be, cuddling Logan and giving him kisses.

We're very settled now. We’re lucky, because Logan sleeps for more than three hours at a time – something that Willow didn't achieve until she was ten months – and he’s even slept through the night on a handful of occasions. We have good days and bad days, but on the whole we've merged into an awesome foursome really easily. It's hard to believe that Logan has only been with us for a few months, it feels as though he's always been here. ✿

We’re going Pumpkin crazy this Autumn. Becky Dickinson delves into the history and health benefits of this iconic fruit

and looks at five fun things to do with your pumpkin.

Nothing symbolises Autumn quite like the sight of giant orange pumpkins. And of course, halloween wouldn’t be complete without ghoul-ish lanterns, carved from these horticultural wonders.

A pumpkin is really a squash, and comes from the same family as the cu-cumber. As well as traditional orange ones, you can also get blue, green and white varieties. And yes, pumpkins are technically a fruit, not a vegetable.

The idea of leaving an eerie, glowing face on the doorstep has been around for centuries and was said to ward off evil spirits. in the early days, turnips

containing a burning lump of coal were used, until it was discovered that pumpkins were far easier to carve and the coal was replaced with a candle.

medicinal myths surrounding pumpkins also abound, from relieving burns, to removing freckles, to curing snake bites. The reliability of some of these claims may be debatable, but pumpkins are known to contain the immune boosting vitamin c, as well as vitamin A, which is important for good skin, healthy vision and growth. What’s more, these are both antioxi-dant vitamins which may help keep cancer cells at bay and stave off aging.

Both the seeds and flesh of pump-

kins contain potassium, a vital mineral in heart health, energy production and muscle function. Pumpkin seeds are also rich in the amino acid, tryptophan, which is important in the production of serotonin – our so called ‘happy hormone.’ to top it all, pumpkins are high in fibre and very low in calories.

Aside from their nutritional benefits, at halloween glowing pumpkins are an invitation to trick or treaters. But lanterns aren’t the only thing you can do with pumpkins. From growing to cooking, carving to crafting, pumpkins are packed with possibilities and offer a myriad of fun activities for children.

Lo c a L fa m i Ly L i f e s t y L e | 11

Whether you’re aiming for something simply scary, or a detailed work of art, the rules of pumpkin carving are the same.

1cut the lid. Slice off the top of the pumpkin, angling the knife towards the centre of the

pumpkin. The idea is to make a lid that can be replaced once you’ve finished carving.

2 clean it out. Scoop out the seeds, stringy bits and mush from inside the pumpkin. Put the

seedy goo to one side. next scrape away chunks of the harder flesh until the wall of the pumpkin is about 3cm thick. keep the flesh for cooking later.

3Add the face. either draw your face straight onto the skin, or draw it on paper first and tape

it to the pumpkin. Prick holes along the lines of your design into the pumpkin skin, so you end up with a series of join the dots to carve into, then remove the paper. let your imagination run free – why stick to faces? try animals, letters or even a pumpkin foetus!

4carve. cut out your shapes with a pointed saw-blade knife, using a gentle, but firm, sawing

action. Obviously, this is a job for grown-ups. you may need a few different-sized knives. Any pieces that break off can be reattached with a toothpick.

5light. Place a tealight in the base of your masterpiece. cut a small chimney hole in the

lid to let out heat and smoke.

don’t let all that flesh go to waste. For an Autumnal warmer, try this deliciously simple pumpkin and sage soup.

1Place your pumpkin flesh in a baking tray with a handful of torn sage leaves and a few cloves of garlic.

Season, then drizzle with olive oil.

2 Roast in the oven at 180 degrees/Gas mark 4 for around half an hour.

3When the flesh is completely soft and cooked, simply blitz it all together with the garlic and sage in a food

processor. The pumpkin should have released a fair amount of liquid, so pour that in too. As pumpkins are around 90 per cent water, you shouldn’t need to add any stock. And that’s all you need for an amazingly easy, rich and velvety soup. For a sweet treat, pumpkins are also great in cakes and pies.

Pumpkin seeds make great craft activities. kids will love sloshing around in the slimy fibres to find the hidden seeds. Once you’ve got them, rinse and dry, then use them to create seed pictures, by sticking them into shapes of flowers, animals or whatever takes your fancy. you can even make vampire fingernails.

After all that, if you have any seeds left over, they can be roasted in the oven to make a delicious seasonal snack. toss with olive oil and salt, then spread them out in a single layer on a baking sheet. cook at 140 degrees/Gas mark 1 for around 45 minutes until the seeds turn golden brown.

don’t stop at just growing pumpkins, you can even name them. if you’re growing your own pumpkins, wait until the fruits are about the size of a small melon or large grapefruit. Then carve your children’s names into the skin using a nail or small knife. The cuts should just break the skin and not cut into the flesh. As the pumpkins swell, children will be amazed at how their names grow too.

The possibilities of pumpkins really are endless and mouth-watering. What will you do with yours this autumn? ✿

PERSONALISE IT

don’t throw your seeds away. Wash, dry and save a few in a safe place to grow your own pumpkins next year.

keep the seeds until Spring, then plant them in individual pots. When the seedlings have a few leaves and all chance of frost has passed, plant outside. if you’re short of space or don’t have a garden, look out for miniature varieties of pumpkin like ‘Baby Bear’, ‘Jack Be little’, ‘munchkin’, and ‘Sugar Pie’ which can be grown in containers and are as cute as their names suggest.

if you haven’t managed to grow your own pumpkins this year, then why not visit a Pick your Own Farm instead, like crockford Bridge Farm in Addlestone, Surrey? There’s a sizeable pumpkin patch where you can hunt for your own auburn globes.

Center Parcs aqua Sana Spa day (from £69 per person). whether you squeeze it in as part of a

family break OR escape with a girlfriend or two, this great package lets you enjoy some well-deserved ‘aaah’-time from 9am-6pm, with full use of the

‘world of Spa’ facilities (from steam rooms to a spa pool), lunch and refreshments. The perfect autumn/

winter treat! More info at aquasana.co.uk.

DefineD eyebrowS

I know. It’s hardly a make-up trend, but well-groomed, naturally defined eyebrows were one of the most talked-about looks on the autumn/winter catwalks (as seen at shows such as Rochas, Chloe and Stella McCartney). And, the thing is, they really do make a difference in helping a busy mama look polished and, well, more awake.

There’s a fine line between well-shaped and over-plucked (and who hasn’t been over-zealous with the tweezers?). Super-thin arches can be quite aging, too (and repeat-ed plucking will make hair growth weaker over time).

The easiest approach is to have your brows professionally shaped (by waxing or threading) and then to maintain that shape at home, armed with a great pair of twee-

zers. I think Tweezerman’s classic Slant Tweezers (1) (from £19.50) are hard to beat (I’ve tried the thumb-grip ones, but personally find them a bit too fiddly).

If you’ve got sparser areas which need to grow back, fill them in with a little

soft make-up or shadow (go one shade lighter than your brows, for the most natural result). Try

the new KIKO Milano Eyebrow Expert Styling Kit (2) (£13.90).

If you remember, give them a quick brush through with a clear eyebrow gel, such as the The Body Shop’s Brow & Lash Gel (3) (£10).

black eyeliner

Another big look this season, although the sixties/fifties-in-spired ‘winged out’ looks seen on some catwalks are a little “faffy” for everyday. However, wearing a “skinny” line along the upper lid - as seen at Victoria Beckham and Christopher Kane - is a quicker, easy option which works equally well on autumn days or nights out.

The quickest way to draw the line? Try a ‘felt pen’ liner, such as Bourjois’ brilliant Liner Feutre (4) (£6.99).

reD nailS

If this season’s red lips aren’t for you, then a slick of red nail polish makes a fun, glam-it-up-a-notch change from summer’s pinks and pastels.

Keep nails short and gently rounded at the edges - it looks modern, makes applica-tion quicker and easier and is the easiest shape to maintain. Regular readers know I wouldn’t be without Nails Inc.’s Glass Nail File (5) (£17), the best investment I think you can make on the ‘DIY mani’ front!

Colour-wise, I’ve become completely obsessed (all things being relative) with ‘greener’ nail polishes, such as the fabulous Zoya range of formaldehyde, toluene and phthalates-free varnishes. I find they go on quickly and smoothly, look glossy and come off more easily, too.

Try Zoya’s Nail Polish in Carmen, Diana, Sooki or Tamsen (6) (£10.50) (naturisimo.com). For longer-lasting colour, I follow with Butter London’s super-shiny Hardwear P.D. Quick Top Coat (£16, at Harvey Nichols).

Translate catwalk make-up trends... here’s how to make three of this season’s hottest looks work for you.

Going for a theme means it’s relatively easy to achieve a coherent looking nursery or bedroom (be prepared to redecorate regularly to keep up with changing interests though). But themes can also overwhelm – be careful not to lose the all important balance between rest and stimulation. The way to overcome ‘theme-overload’ is to stick to one golden rule of interior design: create a single point of focus and keep the rest simple. In three practical tips: 1. Keep walls and floors neu-tral and add easily replacea-ble accessories. If you can’t resist themed wallpaper, use it on just one wall.2. Don’t buy themed basics such as a bed, wardrobe or curtains. Instead, be creative and capture the essence. A hammock can turn a room into a desert island or pirate ship, sheer drapes and pretty bedding can create a princess bed. 3. Try guiding your child gently towards a theme that you think will last longer than their current crush on Ben10. An appreciation of good design is learnt and starts early. ✽ For more decorating tips or to book a design consul-tation, go to Room to Bloom www.room-to-bloom.com
