My baby is 4 days old and despite two lactation consultant sessions I still can't get her to latch properly. She's screaming and I'm crying. The hospital said t…
Sharing this for anyone who needs it: KKH has a perinatal mental health service. SGH has a women's psychological support team. IMH has a postnatal depression cl…
Day 10. I haven't slept more than 2 hours in a row since delivery. I knew it would be hard but nothing prepares you for this. What actually helped you survive? …
He works, I'm on maternity leave, so the logic is 'you sleep in the day'. But I physically cannot sleep when baby sleeps because there are ten other things to d…
I'm 9 weeks and I can barely make it past 8pm. Work is dragging me down and all I want to do is sleep. How did you all cope in the first trimester? Any tips tha…
I exclusively formula fed from week 2. My milk never came in properly and after two weeks of misery and a baby who wasn't gaining weight, I switched. I made the…
At 6 weeks postpartum I couldn't stop crying. Not happy tears. I felt like my baby deserved a better mother than me. I finally told my gynae at the 6-week check…

Just delivered last week at KKH so thought I'd share. The nursing ratio is honestly great and the lactation consultants are top notch. Room is smaller than priv…

I love my job and I love my baby. But I feel like I'm failing at both. I leave work feeling like I haven't done enough, then I come home too exhausted to proper…
First birth: no epidural, I thought I was dying. Second birth: epidural at 5cm, serene, actually enjoyed the experience. My honest take is that there is no meda…
