I was not warned about this part.

Before I became a mother, I had a very clear sense of who I was. My work. My relationships. My rhythms. My identity.

And then — birth. And suddenly the person I was before felt both very close and very far away at the same time.

I still had my name, my face, my memories. But something had fundamentally shifted.

What I was experiencing has a name: MATRESCENCE — the psychological, emotional, and identity transformation that happens when a woman becomes a mother. It's as significant as adolescence. And just as disorienting.

You are not losing yourself.

You are becoming someone new. The old you and the new you are meeting — and learning to exist together. It takes time. It takes space. It takes someone who can sit with you in it without trying to rush you through.

That's what The Postpartum Space is for. 🌸

---

成为妈妈之前,我清楚知道我是谁。

成为妈妈之后——
那个"自己",好像变得有点陌生了。

这不是你想太多。
这是真实发生在每个妈妈身上的转变。

心理学上有个词叫"母性化"(matrescence)——
描述的就是女性成为母亲时,身份认同的深刻转变。

你没有失去自己。你正在成为一个新的你。

产后妈妈的整合空间,就是陪你走过这段旅程的地方。🌸

Some postpartum moms struggle silently for as long as they can hold it. They seek help — but sometimes it isn’t enough, because every situation is different.

For some mothers, things get better after a while.

But some others find it difficult to adjust: new job, new baby, new role… They hold it in until they can’t anymore.

As a postpartum mom, especially in the first 3 months, I had one expectation of my husband. One simple act that relieved my mental load. Just fold the clothes, wash the cup in the sink and pick up something off the floor.

If you’ve been struggling with postpartum moods or simply trying to adjust to your new mom role, DM me to understand how The Postpartum Space can support you.

产后妈妈的情绪和心理状况很少被看见。妈妈们都选择(或无形中选择)默默的撑过每一天。有些妈妈的状况会随着时间慢慢好转。也有些妈妈,情况一直无法得到改善,而撑不下去了。

其实,正视自己的心理需要被照顾,并不代表妈妈是脆弱的。只有当妈妈快乐了,孩子感受到幸福,会更加好带。

情绪低落可以被改善,只要你愿意踏出第一步。

“I don’t know if what I’m feeling is bad enough for counselling.”

I hear this a lot. And I want to be honest with you — you don’t need to be falling apart to deserve support.

Postpartum counselling isn’t about being broken. It’s about having somewhere to process what nobody else is asking you about.

Swipe through to see what it actually looks like — because it might be simpler, warmer, and more accessible than you imagined. 💛

“我不知道我的情况算不算严重到需要辅导。”

很多妈妈都有这个疑问。

我常常说,“你不需要等到撑不住了才寻求帮助。”

产后辅导,不是给”有问题”的妈妈的。

是给每一位需要喘口气空间的妈妈的。

Why The Postpartum Space?

Because when I became a mother, I realised something that surprised me.

There are spaces for pregnant women. Spaces for babies. Spaces for parents.

But very few spaces that exist specifically and unapologetically for the postpartum mother — not as a patient, not as a crisis case, but as a woman navigating one of the biggest identity shifts of her life.

Most of the support system around a new mother is pointed at the baby. Which makes sense. And also misses something important.

You are not just the person who keeps baby alive.

You are a person too.

The Postpartum Space is being built for the Malaysian mother who is quietly carrying a lot — who loves her baby deeply and is also, honestly, struggling. Who doesn't need to be in crisis to deserve support. Who is looking for somewhere warm, honest, and non-clinical to figure out who she is now.

It opens in October. I can't wait to open the door. 🌸

为什么我要创建产后妈妈的整合空间?

因为我发现,有很多支持孕妇的空间,有很多关注宝宝的空间——

但很少有专门为产后妈妈心理支持而设的空间。

为了让宝宝适应这个世界,
很多的妈妈选择默默承受内心深处的纠结。

这个空间将在十月开放。
它是为每位产后妈妈而建。🌸

"Is this just baby blues or something more?"

This is one of the most common questions postpartum mothers ask — and also one of the hardest to answer alone.

The short version: baby blues are real, very common, and usually pass within 1–2 weeks after birth. Postpartum depression is also real, more persistent, and needs proper support.

Swipe through to understand the difference — and save this to share with anyone who might need it. 💛

宝宝出生后心情低落——
是产后情绪低落(Baby blues),还是产后抑郁?

很多妈妈分不清楚,甚至不敢开口问。

这里简单整理了两者的分别,给你参考。

如果你不确定自己是哪一种——记得,开口问是最勇敢的一步。💛

This year has been one of the hardest of my life. And also one of the most beautiful. And sometimes both of those things in the same hour.

The moments where everything looks fine on the outside — baby is fed, house is okay, I'm back at work — but inside there's this quiet, persistent feeling of being slightly lost.

Occasionally there's a quiet breakdown inside. Other days, I feel it's not a big deal.

Some days I didn't know how to name it. Some days I didn't want to. Just... not quite myself.

If that's where you are right now — I just want you to know you're not alone in it. And you don't have to figure it out by yourself.

Over the next few weeks, I'm going to be sharing a space specifically for mothers in the first year, particularly for the new mothers. More soon. 🌸

这一年,是我人生中最难的一年。
也是最美丽的一年。
有时候,这两种感受会同时出现。

表面上,一切都好——
宝宝喂了,家里还算整齐,我也回去工作了。

偶尔会浮现一种说不清楚的迷失感
静静地、持续地待在心里。

有时也会觉得自己就要不行了。
有时会觉得不是什么大事。

有时候,我不知道怎么去形容它。
有时候,我也不想去形容。
就是...... 觉得不太像自己了

如果你现在也有这种感受——
我想让你知道,你不是一个人。
你不需要一个人扛着。

接下来几周,我会将会分享
一个专为产后妈妈而设的空间
特别是第一次当妈妈的你。🌸

For the past few weeks, I've been sharing a little more of my own postpartum journey here.

And the messages I've been receiving from mothers tell me — you needed this space too.

A space built specifically for mothers in the first year. A place to be honest about how you're really doing, without having to perform okayness for anyone.

More details coming soon.

If this sounds like something you or someone you know needs — follow along, and share this with her. 🌸

妈妈,这将是一个让你喘息、休息、整合自己的地方。

Things new mums feel but don't always say out loud:

"I love my baby — and I really miss my old life."
"I don't feel like myself and I'm scared I never will again."
"I feel guilty for not feeling happy enough."
"Everyone says I should be grateful. I am. And I'm also really struggling."
"I'm exhausted but I can't sleep even when I get the chance."
"I feel completely alone even when I'm surrounded by people."

None of these means you're failing.
All of these are more common than you think.

You are not broken. You are not alone. 💛

妈妈,这些感受,你有过吗?

有时候,只是需要一个地方说出来。
欢迎来到产后妈妈的整合空间。
妈妈,我们一起喘口气吧~

Nobody prepares you for the fourth trimester.

We pack the hospital bag. We set up the nursery. We read every book about labour.

But the months after birth? Those are the ones that catch most mothers off guard.

Your hormones change, your sleep is affected, and your body is still healing. Sometimes, mothers don't realise these affect their emotions and make them think they are not good enough.

To all the new mommies, you are good enough. You've gone through a life-risking event and brought a beautiful human being into this world.

Now is the fourth trimester, when you have a new identity and new duties. "It takes a village to raise a kid". I also think that moms deserve care as much as the baby - a happy mom raises a happy baby.

Save this if you're in it right now. Share it with a mother who needs to hear this. 🌸

妈妈,我们一起喘口气。

I’m a counsellor. I’ve spent years sitting with women through some of their hardest moments — relationship breakdowns, identity crises, grief, loss of self.

And then I became a mother.

Nothing could have fully prepared me for what the postpartum period actually feels like from the inside. The exhaustion that goes beyond tired. The love that coexists with overwhelm. The quiet grief of losing the version of yourself you used to know. The moments where you smile at your baby and wonder why you still feel so hollow.

I knew what was happening to me. I had the language and the knowledge. I even found myself searching for answers at 3am, scrolling on social media for connection or chatting with AI about being a new mom.. And yet I still felt alone in it.

That told me something important — if I felt this way with all the knowledge I have, how must other mothers be feeling without it?

That’s why I created The Postpartum Space — 产后妈妈的整合空间. A space that is warm, flexible, online, and led by someone who isn’t just trained to listen — but who is in it with you.

You don’t have to show how okay you are. You just have to show up.

— Phoebe Teo
