The 28-year-old star of "Titanic" confided now was the time to "lay the ghosts to rest."

"Fourteen hours with no drugs at all, but then I had to have an epidural because I was so tired," she said of her latest experience. "It was an incredible birth."

Winslet's daughter Mia, 4, is by her first husband, Jim Threapleton. Her 11-month-old son, Joe, is the offspring of her second husband, Sam Mendes.
