Next Belly Basics, free prenatal event, is happening on October 29th, 2013! More details here.
Last night momstown Oakville held our first Belly Basics event at ellephysio. It was a really successful evening and we've already received lots of positive feedback from the moms to be about how helpful the event was and how much valuable information they learned.

momstown Oakville welcomed our guests with yummy cupcakes from Cupid's Gourmet Bakery, some refreshing lemon/lime water and a very important piece of information required by all of our pregnant mamas - where the bathrooms were! All guests also got a loot bag to take home which included great coupons from Fisher Price, Cupid's Gourmet Bakery and a gift card from Organic Baby Joy!

Our experts included:
-Evolve Yoga Studio on the benefits of pre and post natal yoga (mom and baby)
-Julie from Breast 4 Success for breastfeeding tips and support
-Halton Doula Group
-ellephysio who explain how physio can help after birth
-CReATe Cord Blood Bank
-Good Night Sleep Site Sleep Consultant

After the small group time, we gave away some prizes including a phone and email sleep consultant package from Good Night Sleep Site, a cord blood and peristem collection kit from CReATe Cord Blood and a one year membership to momstown Oakville (which also includes a 12 month subscription to Today's Parent magazine)! The Belly Basics event finished with a relaxing prenatal yoga demonstration from Evolve Studio.

We had a great group of moms last night (we had three who were expecting twins!) and can't wait to see them all again at another momstown Oakville event. Based on last night's success, sounds like we need to get working on planning the next Belly Basics event soon!
