But when you return home, suddenly you’re the one making the decisions.

How long can breast milk stay out?
When should it be frozen?
What if it partially thaws during transport?
How do you know if it’s still safe?
What is lipase, and when should you even test for it?

Questions that seem “basic” are often the questions nobody had the chance to learn.

Not because mums aren’t capable.

But because when everything is being done for you, there isn’t always an opportunity to understand the why behind it.

Grateful for the opportunity by Momley Loft to support mums as they transition from confinement to home life.

You gave up more than anyone counted.
-
And in return, you got something that doesn’t have a name yet.

Just… a life that is fuller and harder and more yours than anything before it.

The robbery was real.
So was the gift.

Maybe the better question isn’t:

“Do I need freeze-drying right now?”

But:

“If my breastfeeding journey changed tomorrow, would I be glad I explored my options today?”

I found out that in Singapore, only about 3% of mums are still exclusively breastfeeding at 6 months.

This was from Singapore 2021/2022 national breastfeeding and child feeding survey.

It made me wonder what happen in that 6 months, the return to work, the lack of rest, the pumping schedule, the washing, the night feeds, the lipase worries, the freezer space, the bottle refusal, the quiet mental load of trying to keep going.

Maybe the number is not a reflection of how little mums care.

Maybe it reflects how much mums are carrying.

Real story: This bottle actually started with plain water. I kept it around because sometimes wet wipes just aren’t enough when the baby poo gets sticky (mums with babies under 6m would get me!)

Then I thought why not use it with reconstituted breast milk powder, and it’s been surprisingly useful ever since. One of those accidental mum hacks that just stuck around.

A little backstory behind this. 🤍

Some of these mum personalities are inspired by mums we’ve met. Some are a blend of feeding journeys we’ve seen again and again, after 3 years of walking with mums through freeze-drying.

the daycare mum.
the night-feed mum.
the weaning-but-not-ready mum.
the “i pumped so hard for this” mum.

None of them are exactly one person, but all of them come from very real stories.

And you might just find a little bit of yourself in one of them too.
