Stroller, Birth Plans, Nannies…Oh My — Brooklyn’s In-The-Know Mom Experts Tell You Everything You Want to Know in Preparation for Baby

Being pregnant with your first child is one of the most exciting times in your life. It can also be somewhat stressful. There are so many different products to buy, so many things to think about — your childbirth options, whether you want to hire a doula or baby nurse, what products are really necessary to have when baby arrives, what to register for, how many nursing bras to buy, what to look for in a pediatrician…the list goes on and on.

Well, soon-to-be mamas and papas, babybites Brooklyn is here to help!

We are going to answer ALL of your questions and tell you what you really need to know on every topic that’s on your mind right now, including, but not limited to:

• your delivery/birth options (what to really expect)
• baby doulas, nurses, postpartum doulas (what they do, how much they cost, how to find one)
• best brooklyn resources for new parents (lactation consultants, pediatricians, daycares etc.)
• products products products (what to buy, what not to buy, what each product is for, where to get them)
• childcare options (the lowdown on nannies & daycare)
• breastfeeding tips (including advice on buying bottles, pacis, pumps, nursing bras, etc.)
• and more!

There’s so much to talk about, but since we’ll only have an hour and a half, we will be sure to poll the room so that we cover the topics that are most important to YOU!

Snacks will be served.  Dads are encouraged to attend.  We look forward to seeing you and your beautiful bumps there!
