WIN 10 Double Tickets to Durban’s Baby Bootcamp

July 20, 2016 by Heather Step 17 Comments

baby bootcampPart of the rite of passage of pregnancy seems to be attending some form of education regarding your upcoming baby’s arrival. If you can have every kind of bootcamp under the sun, then why not have a baby bootcamp too?

Two  companies have paired up to bring this to you! They are Paed IQ (which is SA’s 24/7 pediatric hotline) and Clicks (a company which will give you lots of nice goodies at the event). 

baby bootcamp activities

Tickets cost R200 and guests can expect breakfast treats, an amazing goodie bag filled with Clicks products, expert advice and fun competitions on the day of the event. The events are intended to be like an educational baby shower celebrating children and parenthood.

For more information or to book your seat online, please visit https://paediq.com/babyBootcamp.html

There are a whole lot of interesting speakers, one of which is our very own mom blogger Leigh Jansen (Diary of a Durban Doula). Here is a list of some:

  2. Dr Navashnee Dhaver, obestrician and gynaecologist, currently completing her PhD in obstetric haemorrhage to decrease maternal mortality.

Leigh has had a variety of interesting careers including ballet teacher (that must help with the birth breathing!), teacher, lecturer and business analyst.  Her blog is a lot about advocating for the informed choice. Having recently given birth to her third child, issues of self care and support are particularly of significance to her.

Just to say, two weeks ago I didn't post any photos. We had an awful time in Uitenhage and for the first time actually skipped a round and went home early enough before it got dark.

Just remember that winning only comes after those tough times.

OH and my wall is finally up! Major victory!

I really feel like we turned a corner this weekend.
After days of pain, Nicky had dental work done and he is no longer in pain. Such a nice emergency dentist who met us on Saturday afternoon to get things done. 
Also the airsoft gun is finally working!
After weeks of getting the charger sorted we realised the batteries weren't fitting in the gun. Thank God for Linda and her crew at @planet_paintball.pe who exchanged a part to make the whole thing work and let Nicky try it out with some other people. At no cost. We are so grateful.

Last Sunday night we heard a crash but I thought it was from the other side. I thought I should look at my phone to see what was going on and saw missed calls from my neighbor.

Some guy had literally driven into my wall.

So while we have been dealing with fixing walls, insurance claims and a lot of follow up, what is a girl to do but take refuge in a chocolate desert?
