Welcome to the Bellies Pregnancy group - a prenatal group that centers on holistic preparation, informed decision making and an individualized approach to bringing a baby earthside. This group is focused on connection and community.

On the second Monday of every month, join doulas and mothers Samantha Garcia Gagnon (from bellies inc. and samanthagagnon.com), Stephanie Penner and Michelle Short (both from Wildflower Birth Collective www.wildflowerbirthcollective.ca) and other pregnant folks in your community to connect and share.

Each month we will have a topic that we will start the session with and then it will be an open forum for any questions or sharing you would like to give.

Bellies community space is an inclusive community and our pregnancy group is open to all pregnant people.

We are located at 205 - 12165 Harris Road, Pitt Meadows. Please note, our office is on the second floor and only accessible by stairs.
