Brisbane Baby Expo - I think there will be nappies!

[Cassalina]

Hi all,

I just came across some info on the Natural Baby Expo in Brisbane at the RNA Showgrounds this week (7 and 8 October).

My guess is that there will be nappy stalls there!!!! :smiliedance: From previous expos I've been to it is a great opportunity for new cloth mums to check them out (that's what got me hooked) and I'm pretty sure they have expo specials as well!!!

Thought it may be of interest. From what I can see there are heaps of other exhibits there, but I'll be zooming from nappy stall to nappy stall checking them all out! Lucky I haven't spent this months budget.:yelclap:

PS I've no affiliation with the expo - just thought it may be of interest. Personally I loooovveee an expo!!!

[Oscar's mum]

I dare say there will definately be nappies there - and hmmm Veve said she is getting there early re: cherub's kiss so I am guessing Cherub's Kiss will have some nappies there;)


Tempted to go just to get one of those! lol

[kymmy]

Oh I am so jealy.
I hear there will be nappies at the Melbourne Parenting Expo so I better tighten the belt and save for that.

hi veve. i remember what you look like from the last cloth nappy expo i saw you at......so i'll look out for you. hopefully i can get there. will there be stuff for toddlers to do?????

[mysonroger]

actually, i've been hanging on to a '2 for 1' voucher for the expo. and i know there are some mums out there who really need to watch every penny, and some months are harder than others. So if this is one of those months, and you want the voucher, let me know and i'll post it tomorrow so you have it for the weekend.

[cheezelkat]

We'll be there ;)

[veve]

Yup, looking forward to going. And to see Jack's legs in action :)

oh dear .. I"m afraid that Jack will be firmly strapped to me when I am there .. :laughing: or he would just walk away!!! (he thinks he is SOOOO clever) :smiliedance:

MSR .. you better introduce yourself .. lol .. I'm drawing a blank .. could you give me some more hints .. there were LOTS of new mummies there!!! :o

- it says in the blurb in the bubhub calendar that there will be toddler activities

Veve: "Ummmmmm....nut :no: :confused: !!!"

Nah, but seriously, I am pretty forgettable. except for when I spontaneously combust.....

i was at some expo in a small hall somewhere near whoop whoop in brisbane. i won a door prize , breastfeeding jewellery, and i got the prize and said to you 'I've never won anything before.....''''' but at the time i didn't know it was you. it wasn't until i was on BH later that we figured it out. can't remember what suburb it was, but i think it was a church hall???? this was around about april this year

[veve]

Oh oh! I'll be there too! No doubt with veve and Jack! :D

MAAAAYBE ... :p

oh ... feel the love :p

[Oscar's mum]

www.nurturenappies.com.au will have a stall at the expo and they have quite a range of nappies too;)

[Mum-of-Preston]

Cherubs kiss will be there but only allowing 2 nappies per customer so that she has enough to go around.

Also Baby Beehinds will be there too.

So excited about getting my hands on a HB finally.

Cherubs kiss will be there but only allowing 2 nappies per customer so that she has enough to go around but she will be taking orders on the day.

sorry MoP .. but I have to contradict you there .. at the expo Lesley will definately have nappies :yelclap: - but between selling nappies and discussing the nappies (dont forget .. there will be people who haven't SEEN a MCN before- so discussions are fairly detailed) .. Lesley will barely have time to breathe ... if you want to order nappies you'll have to do it the old way - through the cherubskiss site :yes:

EVERYONE- dont forget your bubhub ribbons on the day .. I want to see pink ribbons people!!!

xx
Jen

[~V&M~]

We'll be there, but no pink ribbons fur us, seeing as we don't have a pram yet! Well we do, but we'll look at little weird pushing an empty pram around :laughing: Have been looking forward to this expo for months and have had our 2 for 1 ticket deal stuck on our fridge for ages as well! Look forward to hearing what everyone got on Monday :D

[cheezelkat]

I'm wondering how to get DP out of bed early too look at nappies tomorrow :laughing:

I'll have a pink ribbon on me...somewhere. DS will be in my red chickadee pouch so someone can come say hi to me!

is it a special pink ribbon, or do you just where any old pink ribbon. it sounds a bit like the purple hats ladies....... :laughing:

[veve]

*sob* .... oh girls .. its soooo sad :(

Jack is sick .. he has had a 'bug' as my Dr so clinically called it .. *sob* :crying: ... and although I am very upset to see my boy sick .. I am TWICE as upset that he is sick THIS WEEKEND .. seriously .. I usually have NO life .. and this weekend I have lots of exciting things to do!!!!

my Dr thinks it is only a 24hr gastro thing (and he DID manage to keep a tiny lunch and tiny dinner down) - tomorrow we try dairy again .. and fingers crossed - if there are no dramas tomorrow .. I will go to the expo on sunday ... phew .. :fingerscrossed:

*sob* - sooo .. if you are heading ot the expo tomorrow .. I am very very jealous .. and if you are heading in the on sunday .. I'm really hoping to be there too!!! :fingerscrossed:
