About the Twin Cities Birth & Baby Expo
"I didn't expect it to be so full of energy and life; often these things are so boring and impersonal."
"If I had known some of the things I saw/learned of at this expo, I might have been better prepared for our birth and felt less 'powerless'...knowing there are many ways to do things."
"I appreciated running into businesses and organizations that I hadn't heard of before, even being pretty tuned-in to the baby/birthing community around here."
