Welcome baby Hakavai! We take a look back on Turia Pitt's pregnancy journey in pics

So much love for this growing bump!

Dec 08, 2017 1:20pm

When inspirational burns survivor Turia Pitt revealed that she was pregnant in June, our hearts filled with love and joy for the 29-year-old motivational speaker.

Turia, who suffered burns to 65 per cent of her body during an ultra-marathon in September 2011, has said that she always wanted children – something she asked doctors if she would still be able to do following her horrific experience in The Kimberelys.

“One of the first questions I asked was if I would still be able to have children,” Turia explains.

“I always get asked if I can have children. People assume that I cannot because I have been burned but the doctors never said, ‘You’re going to struggle’, never said I had to adjust my expectations. On the inside, everything is fine.”

Here, we celebrate Turia’s wonderful pregnancy journey as we celebrate the arrival of her baby boy, Hakavai, with fiancé Michael Hoskin.
