Here's one Singaporean mama's story of the culture

Here's one Singaporean mama's story of the culture shock she got when enrolling her child in a Danish preschool: "I followed along on my daughter's first day at Minicastle, a forest kindergarten an hour away from central Copenhagen (a vast difference from the private childcare centre 10 minutes down the road from where we lived when we were back in SG). The children were allowed to play whatever they wanted, whenever they wanted, however they wanted. In Denmark, childhood is a magical period of time, filled with sounds of laughter and play. It's not rushed — figuratively and literally. In the early days, I would 'rush' Sara back home after picking her up; “Put on your jacket, let’s go!” I remember almost speed-walking with the stroller. It was too natural for me to focus on getting from point A to point B. Over time, I realised that the Danes look at a child’s life differently. Parents stopped and let their children wander a bit, checking out a flower or two by the sidewalk, or stopping to feed the ducks by the canals. Children are genuinely given space, and time to 'stop and smell the roses' when growing up, instead of racing to check off a list of academic goals. I believe this view of childhood can exist partly, or, dare I say mostly, because there is no looming pressure of having to be able to read, write, and spell when they start formal schooling; there are no 'streaming' exercises because the focus is on acquiring knowledge and experiencing the joy of learning, not getting a good grade. There are no high-stakes standardised examinations to get through when they reach 12."
We could all use a bit of the Danish philosophy in our lives! Keep reading in our link in bio as Singaporean mama Adrienne Goh details her experience navigating life in Copenhagen with her family, and how she got used to the Danish way of life.⁠

Definitely a dark, dingy mall staircase for me 😂 The baby was fussing and I couldn't get to a nursing room in time, don't judge! Your turn 👇🏼 (and if you didn't breastfeed, where's the weirdest place you've ever bottle fed your baby?!) #worldbreastfeedingweek #breastfeedingmom #breastfeeding

Lactation goodies have never looked this good 😍

Lactation goodies have never looked this good 😍 It's still #worldbreastfeedingweek so we're talking all things milk supply! Eating lactation treats has got to be one of the best parts of breastfeeding – yummy, sooo indulgent yet effective and often made healthily using organic ingredients and are sometimes sugar-free! You could make them yourself, but if you're in a pinch just check out our list of nourishing lactation bakes, drinks and even soups to try in SG: click our link in bio (we've even got promo codes for you!) 🍪⁠ What are your favourite lactation treats?⁠

With National Day coming up, we figured it couldn't be a better time to check out some funny and witty Singapore-themed card and board games that incorporate hawker food, local neighbourhoods, iconic landmarks, Singlish and more that are super fun to play with kids (who knew there were card games for hotpot and how well you know the MRT map?!).

Am I allowed to put ‘Nursed for two years’ on

Am I allowed to put ‘Nursed for two years’ on my resume? It’s a full-time job really. The hours are long and erratic, the client is extremely demanding and fussy. You are basically like a big story reporter on-call around the clock, not to mention that the moody client can easily have a meltdown at the drop of a hat. Oh and did I mention the client can often be gassy?⁠
This is by far the hardest job I’ve ever had. The toughest client. With zero pay.⁠
The thing about breastfeeding is that it’s such a rollercoaster and also, it’s so different for everyone, with different motivations. My sister and I are both fully formula fed babies and so I was adamant to do things differently for my kids in the hope that their immunity would be better than ours. Many moms make nursing look effortless; like, breastfeeding poster moms could literally be an ad. Good for them. Our struggling variety hate them a little bit… like how we feel about those celebrity moms who return to size 0 a mere nine weeks after giving birth.⁠
Many of us have a cow moment at least once, if not dozens of times in the first 6 months of motherhood...⁠

"With my firstborn, I was unable to breastfeed des

"With my firstborn, I was unable to breastfeed despite involving lactation consultants, ruling out tongue or lip tie, trying nipple shields, really, anything that would help make it happen. Alas it didn’t, but I became an exclusively pumping machine for 9 months, with a deep freezer full of milk to prove it. With my second, I elected to not spend my time attached to a pump, even bringing a tin of formula to the hospital when I delivered “just in case”. However, my second latched right on and 15 months later, still loves nursing at wake up and right before bed. If I’m home, he’ll feed during the day, but if I’m not, he’s content with his milk bottle. One of the reasons I elected to continue was because I had read that COVID vaccine antibodies could potentially pass through my breastmilk and offer him some protection. Although I frequently wish I had my body back all to myself, there are definitely reasons to continue if I can!" Kristen, Project Manager at Sassy Mama⁠⁠

(P.S We know there are lots of totally awesome dads out there doing the night shift with the kiddos too. But when bub is hungry and is breastfeeding - it's gonna have to be mama!)⁠⁠
