We weren't meant to raise our children alone, Mama. So we are here to give you a helping hand, share a recipe, chat about our insights of Motherhood and give you access to experts in mother care, birth, pregnancy and postpartum. Welcome to the FYC Village.
Some of the most powerful parenting moments aren’t the big milestones, but the quiet, everyday ones. The way your child’s eyes light up when you really see them. The deep breath you take before responding when you’re running on empty. The tiny hand that reaches for yours without a word.
It’s in these seemingly ordinary moments that your child’s brain is wiring for connection, safety and resilience. And here’s the best part that wiring isn’t set in stone. Thanks to neuroplasticity, both we and our children can re-shape and strengthen those connections at any stage of life.
I remember waking up in the hospital after giving birth and feeling something I hadn’t expected an almost unbearable hunger. Not a craving. Not a “maybe I could eat.” A deep, bone-tired hunger that felt all-consuming.
And I wasn’t alone. So many mums tell me the same thing.
There’s a particular kind of silence that surrounds early pregnancy loss.
The kind that makes you question whether your grief is valid. The kind that leaves you holding not just your heartbreak, but the weight of unmet expectations and unanswered questions.
