Why do we celebrate a baby’s full month and some catering options on FoodLine!

Ever wondered why your lunar or “Chinese” age always seems to be one year more than your real age? Well, that’s because traditionally, the Chinese have always regarded the completion of a baby’s first 30 days as their first birthday! This is also known as a baby’s full month and this all dates back to ancient times when infant mortality rates were higher since it was a lot harder for parents to care for their children back then. This month of good health for the baby was seen as a good omen and would mean that the baby would enjoy happiness, prosperity, and a long life. Nowadays, the full month marks the end of the confinement period for the mother of the child and a joyous baby’s full month party would be thrown to introduce the new-born to the world and the community. Of course, no party would be complete without quality and delicious food! Here are some caterers that’ll surely make a baby’s full month celebration special and memorable.
