What does everyday life with a toddler in China actually look like?
In this episode of Chasing China, I’m sharing our real daily routine — from early mornings, kindergarten, nanny life, activities, meals, bedtime, and the little things that make our life here different.
I’m also sharing what feels especially “China” about raising a child here: malls instead of playgrounds, checking air quality, taxi rides, deliveries, and building a life far away from family.
A look into expat motherhood in China — not the Instagram version, but our everyday reality.

The Darkest Chapter of My Motherhood – My OHSS Story
This is probably the most vulnerable episode I have shared so far.
After deciding to try for a second child, a fertility treatment unexpectedly turned into a medical emergency.
I spent weeks in the hospital, faced severe OHSS, pregnancy loss, and one of the most challenging times of my life — while being away from my baby.
In this episode, I share the full story: the fear, the uncertainty, the physical pain, the emotional struggle, and what this experience taught me about motherhood, gratitude, and resilience.
🤍 A reminder that even the hardest chapters can change us.
