ALTHOUGH MOST HEADACHES in children are not due to a serious underlying condition, they can affect their lives by interfering with school and other daily activities.

These can be treated by addressing simple lifestyle issues, using painkillers, tackling stress and treating infections accordingly.’
This doesn’t just serve an expectant mother’s curiosity. Modern scans and antenatal tests mean that medical conditions can now be detected with greater accuracy than ever before.
Nurture delivers distribution you can’t find elsewhere, reaching leading City firms’ parenting employee networks, demonstrating the confidence that occupational health managers have in the quality of Nurture magazine.
“One of the most significant breakthroughs has been with testing for the genetic condition Down’s Syndrome,” says Dean Meredith, Lead Sonographer at The Portland Hospital. “Until now the only options were a blood test and scans called nuchal translucency.” “If, after they are carried out, the pregnancy is deemed to be high risk – a risk of one in 250 or over - then expectant mothers are offered either an amniocentesis test during which fluid is extracted from the womb with a needle or chorionic villus sampling (CVS). This involves taking a sample of the placenta either with a needle

“Using either method picks up 93 per cent of Down’s babies but there are seven per cent who do not get detected, whose pregnancy progresses with the mother thinking that she is at low risk,” says Mr Donald Gibb, a Consultant Obstetrician at The Portland and at The Birth Company based in Harley Street. Now it is possible to use a blood test which gives a greater degree of accuracy without the risk of harm to the unborn baby. “It is revolutionary - in the thirty years I have been in maternity care this is the

7AS EVERY PARENT WILL ATTEST
to, travel with children often ends up being more stressful and tiring than a weekend at home. Packing can take a week of planning and still you manage to forget something crucial, the journey quickly turns into a cacophony of squabbling and, once you finally get there, the children are out of their comfort zone – the bed is too small, the room too dark, the food not right or the pool too cold. So for a hotel to get it right for children is extremely hard.
Ben and I had planned an indulgent week without the children in South Africa, something we try to do every year. But, at the eleventh hour, this had to be cancelled; Ben was needed on a fishing trawler in the North Sea before a month in Sochi for the Winter Olympics. Before he went, he really wanted to spend some quality time with all of us so we decided to go away for the weekend. Chewton Glen lies at the edge of the New Forest. It’s a convenient ninety minute drive from London but actually feels like a destination. I had been obsessed with this folkloric
forest where wild ponies roam when I was a child, and I knew it would appeal to my little ones. We had the added bonus of staying in a tree house and, within days of announcing this, our children had convinced themselves we would be surrounded by elves and pixies, and that baby wild ponies would be sleeping in their beds.
Our treehouse was our little cocoon from which we could watch the rain drip off the trees, water trickle by in the brook and, as night fell, the owls hoot Using natural materials where possible and glass, the treehouse embraces its magnificent setting. Even on a wet spring weekend, our treehouse was our little cocoon from which we could watch the rain drip off the trees, water trickle by in the brook and, as night fell, the owls hoot. While our room was indulgent with 180 degree windows, heated floors and a huge bath, the children had a little attic room, accessed by a ladder built into a bookcase. Two little beds were tucked into the eaves, and boxes of toys awaited their arrival. That night bedtime was a dream; no coercion just two happy children, leaping into their beds, excited for the day ahead. The next morning was one of pure indulgence. The children joined us in bed for cuddles and very soon we heard the ‘elves’ delivering our breakfast. We opened a little hatch and there was a wicker hamper, full of delicious breakfast goodies. We set up a little picnic on our balcony and

talked about the magical creatures that lived in the forest while devouring warm croissants. That day’s mission was to explore the forest. Your imagination can run wild with you here, so two hours passed quickly as the children searched for elves, pixies and baby ponies who needed rescuing. We then went on to the technicolour gardens at Exbury which never fail to astound. We returned just in time for a swim before tea. An hour splashing, jumping and swimming in the light and airy indoor pool finished the children off and they practically fell into bed, allowing me a rare, indulgent bath before dinner at Vetivier, the hotel’s renowned restaurant. On Sunday morning, we explored the grounds, the outdoor swimming pool, play area and tree house before the ‘elves’ delivered our picnic and we headed off to the beach. In spite of the winter storms, the beaches remained spectacular and provided plenty of flotsam and jetsam for hours of exploring. Salty, sandy, wind burnt and tired we returned to our tree house with heavy hearts for the children’s final bath. The only protestations we had that weekend came at the end when they realised we had to leave our forest utopia. But we promised we’d return and, within five minutes of leaving, they could no longer fight sleep and we drove home listening to the contented snores of two happy, exhausted children.

Practical Parenting WITH MARINA FOGLE
MARINA’S TIPS FOR PLANNING A WEEKEND BREAK WITH YOUR CHILDREN
Be realistic about the journey. Around two hours is easy, any more has the potential to become a nightmare. Also think about the timing of your journey. Children sleep beautifully in the car so try to tie it in with a good sleep. You might even avoid rush hour this way. Speak to the hotel beforehand to ask them what equipment they can provide. If you can borrow a cot and high chair you’ll have to pack less. Otherwise, I love the Phil and Teds MeToo Clip on high chair that folds flat. philandteds.com Check with the hotel about curtains in the room. If light pours in through thin curtains at 5am waking your child, your weekend will not be particularly restful. If you want to play it safe, it’s worth investing in the Gro Anywhere Blackout blind that attaches to any window. gro.co.uk You never know when your child might develop a temperature. Get into the habit of taking a small medical kit with you when you travel including a thermometer, Calpol and Nurofen. With little children, ask the hotel about food. Some provide puree menus or equipment to puree. Failing that, pack plenty of pre-made pouches such as Ella’s Kitchen or Plum Baby. If you’re storing food in your mini bar, remember often those fridges are cool enough to cool drinks but not for storing food or milk. Depending on the age of your children, remember to pack some toys. Think about what can entertain them for a long time but isn’t too cumbersome. If you’re heading to the country and have a small child, consider leaving your buggy behind. Country walks tend to be difficult even with ‘off road’ buggies. Instead take a baby carrier – Baby Bjorn is great for small babies and the Ergo baby is great for when they get older. babybjorn.co.uk

Rent a house by a lake in the Cotswolds. The Lakes by Yoo offers 3-6 bedroom houses to rent with a concierge service so it’s not dissimilar to staying in a hotel. There are plenty of activities to keep energetic children entertained including fishing, canoeing, cycling and even zip wiring across one of the lakes. If the weather’s bad, there’s a great spa and indoor pool. www.thelakesbyyoo.com/rentals Head to the beach. The Pig on the Beach is the newest of the hugely popular and reasonably priced Pig hotels and its location on Studland Beach makes it a perfect family getaway. Overlooking Poole Harbour, the miles of sandy beach are the perfect exploration ground for adventurous families. www.thepighotel.com Immerse yourself in Nature. For animal or tractor-mad children, a stay on Kate Humble’s working farm in South Wales is an experience few will forget. Stay at the Piggery, a two bedroom cottage at the heart of the farm. Collect your vegetables and eggs from your own garden each morning and days are spent mucking around with Farmer Tim. Lambing season is particularly magical. www.humblebynature.com Further afield. If the British weather has taken a turn for the worse, there’s nothing like a quick hop over to the Algarve for some early spring or late autumn sunshine. The Martinhal is a family friendly resort which is chic and luxurious enough to give the most discerning of parents a well-earned break too. www.martinhal.com
