ABOUT THE EVENT

Calling all breastfeeding mothers, families and supporters!

The pandemic will not dampen our spirits and the annual Big Latch On, in conjunction with the World Breastfeeding Week, is back this year to bring together members of the breastfeeding community virtually!

THE BIG LATCH ON 2020

This year, we will be conducting the BLO online via Zoom! As usual, family members and anyone who supports breastfeeding are welcome to join the event.

Hosted by celeb-mummy Joanne Marie Sim, with our Guest-of-Honour MP for Louis Ng Kok Kwang, who is also the Adviser to Nee Soon GRC, we promise that this year’s BLO will be just as fun and exciting like every other year!

– Big Latch On 2020 Record –

As usual, we gather for BLO to contribute to the annual count of most number of mothers latching or pumping at a single time. Encourage your family members and children to join in all the fun!

– BMSG Sharing on Breastfeeding @ Work –

BMSG has always championed breastfeeding at work. We know that it can be daunting for breastfeeding mothers to return to the office and worry about whether they can continue breastfeeding. We will have a sharing by mums on breastfeeding at work and while #workingfromhome together with some of our counsellors in a special segment during the event.

– BMSG Breastfeeding Quiz –

As usual, we have prizes up for grabs from our generous sponsors for our BLO Breastfeeding Quiz! Stand a chance to win exclusive prizes in the BMSG Breastfeeding Quiz and test your breastfeeding knowledge!

Also, all attendees will enjoy a curated e-goodie bags exclusively for them!
