Just one of the items available for nursing moms in the Push for Birth online auction.
Expectant and nursing mothers in the Central Valley of California will love the amazing array of items currently available through an online auction called "Push for Birth" which is being put on by the Childbirth Resource Network. The items which are available for bid on this auction range from adorable hand-made baby items to beautiful, leather handbags by Coach and other makers. Families will enjoy gift cards to a huge selection of local eateries and child-friendly establishments, as well as gift certificates toward a variety of healthcare services, such as chiropractic care and in-home lactation consulting. There are yoga classes, birth doulas, and nail salon offers in the auction. One will even find opportunities for family travel, such as a cozy getaway to Shaver Lake and a set of 4 Park Hopper tickets to Disneyland. Each item is described and displayed on the Push for Birth web page, but the auction ends on November 13, 2009, so new mothers will want to take advantage of this opportunity before it is over.
The Childbirth Resource Network is a nonprofit organization of local providers and parents dedicated to improving birth and early parenting experiences in the central San Joaquin Valley. Their efforts are aimed at normalizing the community's perception of birth, as well as striving to achieve an atmosphere in which birth practices and perinatal services are focused on the family's choices, preferences, and needs. This group recognizes that pregnancy, labor and birth, and the early postpartum and newborn periods are especially important and sensitive times in the lives of women and their families. The Push for Birth auction has a goal of raising funds to create a Birth and Family Resource Center in Fresno to help serve the needs of the community's childbearing families.
For the breastfeeding women of the Fresno area, this auction provides an opportunity to peruse a large selection of baby-related items, along with many other gift ideas, just in time for the upcoming holiday season, without even having to leave their homes. When one is nursing a new baby, there may be few opportunities to do extended holiday shopping on foot, so this online shopping event makes an excellent alternative. For most breastfeeding mothers, a chance like this is worth its weight in gold.
