Turia is not one to shy away from sharing personal moments with her legion of fans across the country.
Following Hakavai’s birth, the athlete detailed every moment of his arrival in a candid newsletter – beginning with how she tried to kick off her contractions…
“At 40 weeks and two days, I saw my chiropractor and got my pelvis aligned. I swam a kilometre. I went to an acupuncturist. I made an eggplant parmigiana (I used a recipe touted all over the internet as the best labour inducing food out there – google ‘scalini’s eggplant parmigiana’ for the recipe,” she wrote.

“Later, Mum and I were being silly on the couch, Michael was rolling his eyes at our shenanigans and out of nowhere, I did a massive fart and broke out in uncontrollable hysterical laughter.”
“My waters broke too.”
Turia then went on to talk about how she was in labour for nine hours before being told she may have to undergo C-section if she didn’t opt for an epidural.
Hakavai was then vacuumed out, with the sound of his cry “filling the room”.
And baby makes FOUR!
Congratulations to the happy family. We can’t wait to hear Turia’s take on this birth!
