Celebrate Pregnancy Awareness Month Published on Sunday, April 25, 2010 by

No.  I’m not pregnant! Hehe!  But, there is a fabulous event this coming Sunday in LA that I must tell you about.  For the past three years, I’ve attended Anna Getty’s “Motherhood Begins Now” Pregnancy Awareness Month events.  They’re usually the first week in May, perfectly timed after Earth Day.  Here is a brief overview of the event from the site:

PAM 2010 officially launches again this May with an inspiring FREE lifestyle event celebrating the four initiatives of our month-long campaign, in partnership with TreePeople. “Motherhood Begins Now, Celebrating Motherhood & Mother Earth” will be hosted by PAM founder Anna Getty , Ricki Lake, Catherine McCordJosie Maran, and Trista Sutter at TreePeople off Mulholland Drive in Coldwater Canyon Park (free shuttle parking at Harvard Westlake).  Attendees will be invited to participate in panel discussions with pregnancy, child development  and green lifestyle experts including reknowned pediatrician Dr. Alan Greene, author/filmaker Ricki Lake, actress Joely Fisher, and authors Elizabeth Rogers and Kim Barnouin.  A fabulous Pregnancy Fashion Show produced by Expecting Models will open with Grammy award winner, singer, songwriter, and the voice of Creed, Scott Stapp performing an acoustic rendition of “Arms Wide Open.”  Take a nature hike with mommy fitness expert Lisa Druxman or learn from Treepeople experts on planting, water conservation and more.  Ecostiletto & Bash Eco Events presents the Holistic Mommy Lounge Spa for your pampering pleasure. Enjoy tons of non-toxic toddler activities presented the Hot Mom’s Club.  Of course our sponsors & partners will have a focused area offering mommy-related & green product education and shopping!   Our day kicks-off with Trista Sutter & Jessica Denay’s book signing for The Hot Mom to Be Handbook at 1pm sharp!

The event is free, informative, and always nicely done.  There will be activities for the kids, food, and giveaways.  For more information, just visit their website.

I did not receive compensation for this post.  I just wanted to share with you some info about a great event that I’ve been to the last two years.
