OHbaby! Coverstars

OHbaby! Coverstars

Meet just some of the gorgeous newborns who star on the cover of their own personalised OHbaby! magazine.

Babies born in the first six months of this year were eligible for a fantastic opportunity - their very own personalised OHbaby! magazine. The promotion marked the 20-year anniversary of Huggies' support for Plunket. And we were thrilled to be a part of it.

Hundreds of New Zealand parents have taken up the offer and created a very special memento of their precious newborn.

meet Chloe

Chloe Denise Hudson had her first trip to school in Papamoa at just three weeks of age. She took part in big brother Caylum's "show and tell" presentation. Caylum, aged five, and his two older siblings adore her and give the tiny baby big hugs, says mum Bronwyn. "But they all wish she didn't sleep so much so they could play with her more! But I'm delighted she's the cruisiest little girl in the world and already sleeping seven or eight hours most nights," says Bronwyn.

meet Felicity

Felicity Hannah McIntosh of New Plymouth, lies contentedly asleep for her cover shot keepsake that will go into the memory box in the McIntosh household. Her older siblings also have their own mementoes. Cameron, aged three, has his umbilical cord clamp, photos and cards from the few days he spent in the neo-natal unit after his birth. Older sister Jodie, seven, has her first ballet shoes taking pride of place, but Felicity will be the first with her own personalised magazine.

meet Caleb

Auckland newborn Caleb was given the name Wiriata as a middle name in memory of his great great grandfather who fought in WWI with New Zealand's Maori Battalion. His mother Angela, who is comparing Caleb's progress to her own records in her original Plunket book, says he's well on track to living up to his father's expectations of becoming an All Black captain.

meet Jonah

Jonah's full name is Jonah, Hiruharama Marcus Mangai, a name rich with meaning. His parents wanted to give their Dunedin-born baby a Hebrew name while Hiruharama is the Maori word for Jerusalem and pays tribute to his Dad's Ngai Tahu descent. "Marcus" was added in memory of a friend who recently died in a helicopter crash.
