I have just come back from Ireland's Pregnancy & Baby Fair 2013 thanks to Tony Kealy's who chose me as one of their competition winners!
I won a pair of tickets through their Facebook page; Tony Kealys and so I brought along my also pregnant sister! We are only 20 days apart- me being due before her on the 9th May ( soooo excited)!!!! :-)
I just want to congratulate them on an amazing job that they did and I have to say it was a lovely day out with great special offers and plenty of stalls set up. At each stall there were great goodies and samples of products that I was genuinely interested in checking out. We each had several bags when leaving to our excitement! I was even more delighted when I returned home and opened my goody bags to find some great discounts and also some vouchers for 50% off newborn nappies in Aldi which I use all the time!
There were plenty of stalls and more than enough helpful staff at each one to keep us occupied for a couple of hours. I didn't purchase much as I already have everything I need right now but I did see some great offers that I'm sure would suit others!
What I did purchase was a stretch mark repair cream from a product called Silderm for €25. I thought it was great value from speaking to the lovely sales adviser. She was very helpful and explained how the product gets under the skin to the dermis where it can start to repair the torn dermis. I was impressed and wanted to try the product. There were samples there but as it cannot be bought in shops anywhere near by I decided to invest and try it out ASAP! I'm always looking for new products to treat my existing stretch marks. I am pleased to say that throughout this pregnancy I did not get any new stretch marks!
I will try this cream and post about the results! I am feeling very optimistic that the results will be quite good. There are also lots of other products to try from this brand and a stretch mark prevention oil to prevent stretch marks before they appear.
To check out the product for yourselves I have a link to the Silderm website here.
I also bought a beautiful red velvet cupcake from the cupcake stand; Johnnie Cupcakes. I had to mention that because it was soo nice the perfect ending to a lovely afternoon. Looking forward to this company coming to Cork...
It was a lovely day and has made me even more excited about my baby arriving - I am ready and waiting patiently whenever it is ready to make it's appearance... :-)
Regards,
Naoimh
