On hand for consultations will be midwives, doulas, childbirth and new baby instructors, breast-feeding and postpartum support, chiropractors, acupuncturists, herbalists, pre-natal and infant massage therapists, pre-natal yoga instructors, and local support groups.

There will also be free massage, personal consultations, lots of prize drawings, face painting, demonstrations and mini lectures by local experts throughout the day.BABI promotes awareness of evidence-based care and options in order to reduce unnecessary birth interventions, improve breastfeeding success rates, and preserve healthy mother, baby, and family attachments. Through compassionate, accessible, and non-judgmental education and resources, BABI seeks to increase and promote normal, spontaneous labor and vaginal delivery, minimize mother/baby separations, and reduce the maternal/infant morbidity and mortality rates.

BABI promotes great-er awareness of evidence-based care and the broad range of choices available to birthing women as well as birth professionals, restoring dignity, satisfaction and joy to the birthing process.
