Bo Zhao, 41, of Center City, Philadelphia, in the United States, gave birth to her first daughter, Milu, in June 2018.

During her maternity leave from an e-commerce company, Zhao and about two dozen other mums eager for community started meeting at the Nesting House, a now-shuttered spot in South Philadelphia. The women described the group as "mums lifting up mums, women lifting up women."
