I’m thrilled to share that the Maternity Abroad: Becoming a Mother in a Foreign Land guidebooks are now in Dublin, ready for attendees of the IV Perinatal Symposium this Saturday, 25/01!

This incredible event, hosted by the Gestaire Group, is all about empowering moms-to-be as they prepare for their first postpartum week. Highlights include expert sessions with a local expat doula, pelvic floor physiotherapist, breastfeeding consultant, and perinatal psychologist.

Although I won’t be attending in person, I’m honored that Maternity Abroad will be part of this special day. The guidebooks will be distributed to attendees, providing invaluable advice for navigating motherhood—especially for expat moms adapting to life in a new country.

If you’re attending, I hope you find the guidebook an inspiring and practical resource to support your postpartum journey. To learn more about Maternity Abroador stay tuned for updates!
