Events This Week
A couple of things going on this week that you might want to know about, and a tip on finding the spring consignment sales in your neighborhood:
The NoVA chapter of ICAN (International Cesarean Awareness Network) will hold its monthly meeting on Wednesday evening, February 15, from 7 to 9:30 p.m. at the Tysons Pimmit Library in Falls Church (7584 Leesburg Pike). Here's a description from the group: "The International Cesarean Awareness Network (ICAN) chapter of Northern Virginia is for those who are pregnant or have never birthed, and for those needing support after a cesarean. ICAN's mission is to improve maternal-child health by preventing unnecessary cesareans through education, providing support for cesarean recovery, and promoting Vaginal Birth After Cesarean (VBAC). We strive to lower the rising cesarean rate through education, provide a forum where women and men can express their thoughts and concerns about birth, and provide a support network for women who are healing from past birth experiences."
A new round of Saturday Itsy Bitsy Yoga classes in NW DC's U St. Corridor begins this week. Packages are available for attending four, five, or six classes, which are held at the family-friendly Boundless Yoga studio. The babies' class runs 10:30 to 11:15 a.m. and the tots class is 9:30 to 10:15 a.m. For more info or to register, visit itsybitsyyogawithmoira.com.
And pre-registration is now open for Melody Kisor's popular "Pets & Babies" class, to be held Saturday, March 4 from 12:30 to 2:30 p.m. in Alexandria. Featured recently on the front cover of the Examiner, this class will help you get your four-legged "baby" ready for the arrival of your new little one. For more info or to register, go to thebabyduck.com/pets.
Regarding late winter and early spring consignment/benefit sales - two of which I posted about yesterday - be sure to check the special section on this topic at Our-Kids.com. Amy Miller of Our-Kids puts together the definitive, comprehensive listing each season. If it's happening, she'll have it posted! To share info about a sale you're involved with this spring, send it to amy at our-kids dot com. (You're also, of course, welcome to forward to me if you also want it posted here: sarah at dc-baby dot com.)
