Turia Pitt and Michael Hoskin bring baby home

The happy couple welcomed their first child into the world last week. 

And on Wednesday, burns survivor Turia Pitt and fiance Michael Hoskin bought their newborn son Hakavai home. 

The 30-year-old motivational speaker was seen beaming from ear-to-ear as she carried the baby capsule into her home located on NSW’s south coast.

Wearing a casual pink top and grey joggers, Turia looked ever the proud mama and she slung a baby blanket over her shoulder. 

Michael appeared happy and relaxed as he strode into the family home wearing a white T-shirt and dark blue joggers. 

After Turia exited the vehicle, she carried her precious cargo up the stairs leading to the house. 

The couple were accompanied by Turia’s parents Célestine Hitiura Vaite and Michael Pitt who helped them carry their belongings out of the car.

Turia’s mother was seen carrying a pillows and bags while dressed in a summery beach dress.

The proud parents shared the exciting news of the birth via Turia’s newsletter last Friday, with two photographs showing their bundle of joy.

‘We’ll be in this little newborn bubble for a few weeks but we wanted to pop our heads out for a moment to share the news directly with you,’ she said in the newsletter.

 ‘We are totally in love, and just so stoked!’

The baby announcement comes just days after Turia – who suffered burns to 65 per cent of her body – posted a picture on Instagram with the caption: ‘We’re frothing to meet you Baby Hoskin!’

On her blog, the motivational speaker revealed that she wasn’t nervous about the birth of her first child.

 ‘Of course, with any big change approaching, there’s a certain element of uncertainty,’ she said.

‘And when you know that you’re going to experience pain, that can be pretty scary,’ she added. ‘But I’m not looking at it that way.’

The author said she was going to apply the same technique to every major surgery she had since the fire in 2011 to the birthing process.

 ‘I write a list of all the bad things that could happen – it’s going to hurt, I don’t know if I can do it, what if I can’t handle the pain,’ she said.

‘Then I write a list of all the good things – how grateful I am to still be here, to have a beautiful partner like Michael, and to get to experience this.

‘I could look at it in the negative way, or the empowering way. If I look at it in the empowering way, I feel better – so that’s the way I choose.’

Last month, the Australian athlete revealed the gentle workout pregnancy regime she was doing to keep herself active leading up to her childbirth.

‘I’m definitely not in full, intense-o Ironman training mode, but I am still exercising daily,’ she said.

‘I go to Pilates two to three times a week, introduced more yoga to my routine and try to either walk or swim every day.

‘I kind of think giving birth is a bit like a marathon in that the stronger and fitter I am going into it, the easier I think I’ll find it (and the quicker I’ll recover from it too).’

Speaking to Daily Mail Australia in October, Turia said she already knew the kind of parent she wanted to be before her little man arrives.

She said she was determined to raise her son with the same relaxed, laid-back lifestyle she had growing up on the NSW south coast.

‘[I] can’t wait to do all the stuff I enjoy with him – going for a surf or a run – it’s going to be so cool,’ she said.

 ‘We [Michael and I] both love being outside and keeping active. We’ll be down at the beach with him all the time.’

She spoke fondly of Michael who has been a devoted partner throughout the pregnancy – and the painful rehabilitation after she was trapped in a raging bush fire six years ago during an ultramarathon in Western Australia’s Kimberley.

‘Nothing has been difficult,’ she continued.

‘He’s been awesome as usual – really supportive and he’s frothing. He can’t wait.’
