I started my mom blog when I became a mom. My husband and I both live in Singapore, far away from all relatives. As a FTWM, juggling work and family is a daily challenge. We rely heavily on each other and on our helper. In today’s society, there is a lot of pressure for moms to be a perfect mom and do it all.
Here is sharing all my personal posts of my hopes and fears on being a mother. I hope that by reading this Singapore mom blog, my motherhood experience will uplift you and provide you with a sense of camaraderie.
My Motherhood Experience
- It’s not just you. Mom Brain is a thing and it’s frustrating
I used to be the one who could go to multiple back to back meetings without taking notes and still remember the details of everything better than the colleague who did. - Don’t forget who you were before you became a mom
For those of us who forget who we were as individuals before we got promoted to mom - I make a better employee as a mom
My take on why moms make better employees - Here’s why I don’t hang out as much anymore :(
A mom’s life is too busy for friends. - Why it’s so hard to work late as a working mom
It’s not that moms don’t want to. They can’t. - Being a mom is hard sometimes
I get you. I feel it too. - Don’t rush through the early days with your newborn
Dedicated to first time mummies, don’t make the mistake I did - To every exhausted mom out there…
You need to read this. - Do you feel like a mom who is always one step behind?
Tired of having to play catch up all the time? Me too. :( - Why moms are always tired but they choose to stay up late anyway
Solitude is golden. Enough said.
My Life in Melbourne
In January 2020, my family moved to Melbourne. It’s a huge move. I’ve never lived in Melbourne before. The decision feels crazy and I’m all excited and nervous at the same time. Follow me as I try to live and thrive in Melbourne here.

If you ever thought raising kids has never been more complicated or difficult, well you’re not alone! Whether it’s because of modern day’s societal gender roles or the proliferation of parenting philosophies, parenting has definitely gotten more difficult. I have compiled a list of my own motherhood experiences, tips and product reviews as I continue on this path to balance traditional values with the variety of modern parenting styles.
