Writers' Conferences for Mothers with Small Children
I'm having my first baby in eleven weeks. As an already established professional writer, used to going to conferences, traveling to book festivals and to do readings, I'm facing a big change in my life! None of these things include babysitting or make it obvioius that a small child is welcome. So I'm curious...Does anybody know if there are mom-friendly (that is, kid-friendly) writers' conferences?

Well, I may try to organize something like this in the Bay Area (California) in a couple of years. I'd try to organize it at a place where there is affordable housing for out-of-towners. We'll see. My baby is 8 weeks old, I'm going on book tour starting in another month, and I just need to get through all of that first. :-)
