Snacks, maids, and holidays: Why mums-to-be deserve more FREE stuff

As mums-to-be we deserve FREE stuff: like free snacks brought to us on demand.

And a free maid to do the housework, and maybe a free trip to Bora Bora along with a selection of flattering maternity bikinis. Sadly, HerFamily can provide you with none of the above. We apologise. BUT what we can do is hold a kick-ass roadshow masterclass, bringing a load of experts together to help you champion motherhood (well, no one ever becomes a 'champion' at motherhood, but you get the drift). Step forward the HerFamily (that's us!) Antenatal Roadshow, in association with WaterWipes. Taking place on Saturday, April 1 at 10am in the Dean hotel in Dublin, it promises to be both informative and serious amounts of fun (because pregnancy can be scary enough as it is and we prefer fun). You'll be greeted by breakfast canapes on arrival, while there will also be goodie bags for EVERY attendee when you depart at lunchtime. Speaking on the day will be Emily McElarney (hypo-birthing); Nicola O'Byrne (breastfeeding); Sinead Lawlor (sleeping expert), and Steph Sinnott (pre- and post-natal exercise). The event will be MC'd by our very own Her Channel Editor extraordinaire, Gillian Fitzpatrick. Expect to hear and learn oodles on the likes of overcoming a fear of labour; preparing for breastfeeding, and the importance of postnatal exercise for your physical and mental health. The four-strong panel experts will furthermore be on hand to answer anything and everything a discerning mum-to-be could want to know. This is a must-attend event and we reckon you'll walk away afterwards not only armed with your generous goodie bag, but also invaluable tips and tricks that might just make labour, giving birth, and early motherhood that bit easier. Success!

We will be recruiting for this event on site tomorrow – keep an eye out for it on Facebook and Twitter.
