Recently Finland was voted as the best place to become a mother.
Not only do they have one of the lowest infant mortality rates in the world,
but for 75 years their Government has provided every expectant mother with box
containing starter items, like clothing, sheets, a mattress, toys, of course this box that can and is used as a bed and so much more! Regardless of economic background, every baby born in the country is given an equal start. Of course women have the option to accept the box or a grant if they wish to purchase their own items but 95% of women opt for the box!
and I would too, it's kind of spectacular....
check out the full BBC article "Why Finnish babies sleep in boxes"
so good, wishing this was an option for all mothers!
