Being a mother of one, I’d like to say a word of thanks to Motherhood for its invaluable and useful advice. I now subscribe and look forward to every issue. Prior to reading Motherhood I have never been inclined to keep the magazine. But now I hold on to every issue as the variety of articles in Motherhood can be kept for a lifetime use. The variety of information is also extremely entertaining. Here’s a salute to motherhood for all the great articles! Keep up the good work.     - Tammy Tan, mother of a three-year-old.

I was on my way home from work, when I passed by a newsstand.  The April’s issue of Motherhood really caught my eye. After looking at the April’s cover, I did not think it was possible to have another cover that was as fabulous. However, you did it again. The May’s cover was even nicer. Ever since then, I have decided to subscribe to your magazine. Kudos’ to your team. I look forward to receiving my June issue. Keep up the good work! I was wondering if you could run an article on circumcision though. - Susan Lau, mother of a four-year-old.

I am a regular on your Motherhood web site, and I must commend you on the recent improvements. I am going to be a mum soon and it is my first time, so I appreciate all the help I can get. Motherhood web site is a one-stop portal. Through your web site, I’ve also made friends on the forum. So now I don’t feel like the only one who seems to have so many questions and worries. I’ve been reassured, informed and even entertained by your good ideas and stories. I’ve even made it my homepage! Three cheers!  - Rina Sim, a mum-to-be.

I’ve never been the sort to actually write in to a magazine to express my thoughts or thank them for their great articles. But after reading May’s issue, I had to write in to express my gratitude. I am a month away from delivering, and your article, “Ultimate Guide to Your Growing Baby”, really made me feel closer to the lil' one growing in me. The story of birthing in South Africa also proved to be an interesting read and so was miracle fat busters: truth or myth? All I can say is, Keep up the good work motherhood. I really can’t wait to put the knowledge I have acquired from reading your magazine to good use. - Juliana, a mum-to-be.

This is the first magazine I have picked up ever since giving birth to twins’ three years ago. I never saw the need to pick up a parenting magazine as I thought the articles would be similar to what’s available online. Boy was I wrong. Also, thank you for you hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) article. When I first read about HFMD in the newspaper I was very worried. But your article has helped understand it better and I’m now aware of necessary precautions I should take. Thank you for putting my mind at ease and do keep up the good work! - Violet Lim, mother of a twin three-year-olds.

“I have been a loyal follower of Motherhood long before I even got pregnant! And now that I’m expecting my first child, I look forward to putting into practice all that I’ve learnt! Thank you for the useful articles that has prepared me for what may just be the most challenging journey in my life!”- Lorraine Tan, mum-to-be.

And now, even though my kids are already five and three, I still find the magazine an invaluable source of information.”– Linda Than, mother of two kids.

 “I have been reading Motherhood since I gave birth. I wish that someone had introduced this magazine to me before I got pregnant. I could have done with more information then.”
 – Julia Kim, mother of a three-month-old baby.

“I simply love recipes segment in the magazine. The pictures look so lovely. I even tried out the recipes featured in the February issue. Not only were they simple to do, but they were simply delicious!” – Angelina Durai, mother of a 15-month-old baby.

“I was given a copy of Motherhood when I was pregnant with my first child in 2002. Although, my son is already four years’ old, I still subscribe to Motherhood as I find the materials worth reading. I have actually seen the magazine evolve over time. It just keeps getting better!” – Mindy Tan, mother of a four-year-old kid.

“I enjoy the recipes segment. I think that maybe Motherhood should also consider doing recipes for the novice cooks as well.” - Julia, pregnant mum-to-be.

“I like the fashion pages but would really prefer to see a fashion spread catered for young babies. Thanks!” – Siti Norazia, mother of six-month-old baby.
