Motherhood changes you. There is no doubt about it. Just look at me – before I gave birth to my three sons , I was your typical single lady. I couldn't be bothered to cook anything more complicated than a fried egg . I spent most of my nights in sought-after restaurants and trendy bars. I wasted my monthly salary on the coolest clothes I could find. 

And then came motherhood which inspired a fundamental change in me and in every aspect of my life. All new moms know what it's like to feel tired, drained, messy and like you'll never look like yourself again. That is doubly true for the breastfeeding mother who must also master this incredible art that does not always come as easily and naturally as we were told.

Yet, what bothered me most as I was navigating through this new chapter was how miserable I looked. I grew more and more reluctant to accept maternity as the end of the easy-going and cool woman I was- and the style that reflected her. 

I recognized that while someone new was emerging through the beauty and the hardships that motherhood has brought, I was also unwilling to let the flame of who I was before stop burning. I knew that I have to find a way to take pride in how I present myself to the world, once more.

I decided to achieve that by creating a fashionable and functional nursing cover that looks as good as it feels. That would simplify the act of nursing but will also serve as a fashion piece in the process. Something that would cater to the needs of the old me and the new me- all at the same time. 

Since I couldn't find what I wanted, I spent endless sleepless nights sewing, stitching, cutting and bringing the stylish breastfeeding cover I envisioned  to life.

After two years of rigorous trial and error, I'm very excited to introduce Babi to the world, a 6-in-1 breastfeeding kimono designed to make your life simpler, reflect your desire to resemble your stylish-old-self, and of course, make breastfeeding easier.

I hope you find it as liberating as I have and pray that it brings you the same sense of self it brought me when I needed it most.

You got this, mama.
