Mom Confessions

Let's share some silly things that happen in our mom life...we might be a little embarrassed by them but we are not alone!

My mom confession is that the only thing I like about bath time for my LO is sitting on the edge of the tub and soaking my feet at the same time.

What is your mom confession?

I hide chocolate in the bathroom and lock myself in there when I need a break lol 🍫

I hide my favorite jelly beans from my daughter. Worked really well for a whole 3 months until she found them last night. Dang her!

I love this post!!
My mom confession is that I nurse my daughter to sleep because I hate her throwing a fit to go to sleep.

Once in awhile, I like to dress my son in white and cover him with my daughters baby blankets and put a little bow in his hair to pretend he’s my daughter from 5 years ago. They could be twins!! 😬😬😬

Avatar

My mom confession is I tell my husband we need something from the grocery store so I can go and be alone for 20 minutes 😬 I’m going to soak my feet in the tub from now on too!

Avatar

My confession is when I don’t feel like playing with the kids, and I want to relax, I’ll take out all the blankets and build a fort with their bunk beds so they’ll hide out in there for awhile while I watch Netflix and watch them on the baby monitor 😂

Avatar

When I am not ready for the morning yet I will let my kids watch Netflix for about an hour so that I can read and drink my coffee in peace before we jump into the day.

Sometimes I can’t wait for nap time because she is asleep and I can’t do what.

Avatar

Sometimes I tell my husband that my daughter was a handful during the day so we can go out to eat.. really I’m just too lazy to cook or get anything done around the house 😐

At my nightly pump session I would pump my normal 15 minutes with the light on my pump (a spectra) and then turn the pump off but keep the light on so my husband thought that I was still pumping. That way I could continue scrolling Facebook for an extra ten minutes while he got the baby ready for bed. Lol. His own fault that he can’t even notice that the pump isn’t making noise!

Avatar

I have been counting down the days to back to work, I can’t wait to let other people take care of my son some of the time.

Avatar

She gets limited screen time of stuff that I tell myself is “educational” but I really just want her to stop climbing all over me for JUST. FIVE. MINUTES.

Avatar

I take an extra $5 out when I put gas so I have extra spending money (for ME) when I go shopping.

Avatar

I was told I couldn’t have kids, 3 years later I ended up pregnant. Now i have a 3 month old and I’m a stay at home mom (and my hubby wants me to be until she’s 2) anyway all I can think about is going back to work so someone else can watch baby and I can pretend my life is not being ruled by a miniature human 😂 I just wished I could have some days “off”

Avatar

My mom confession is that I tell my oh I don’t feel well so I can sit in the bathroom on my phone without having a baby trying to climb in the bath😅

Avatar

My mommy confession is i take my 2yr old in the restroom while i gotta go already and have her was her teeth since she likes doing that anyways hehe

Avatar

My confession is that meatballs are my best friends for the past couple of days. I don’t feel like cooking, so I’ve been making instant pot pasta and meatballs. The kiddo loves it! 😬

Avatar

Sometimes, I pretend I’m dead asleep when I hear the baby take a massive poop after he wakes up in the morning (co-sleeping). That way my SO has to get up and change him and I get my few extra minutes 🤣😍

Avatar

When I put my son down to nap then I flipped on the TV, sound is off and caption on...I run into the kitchen and either eat half a container of Nutella with the spoon or I get a packet of hot chocolate and pour into a cup of water over and over again for a half hour straight! Then I’ve got to get up and do laundry/clean but first I must have my fix!

Avatar

I hide in my closet and eat my favorite foods so I don’t have to share with my babies 🤷🏼‍♀️

Avatar

I tell my husband I still have to pee often throughout the night, just like in pregnancy, because of hormones... so that I can get breaks from crying infant and he does the work. 😬😬

Avatar

No matter how tired I am, I always read during his naps or when he goes to bed. reading comics on my phone is my “me” time and it’s the best 😂 I especially love the romantic stories! Lol

Avatar

I eat all my little ones baby snacks and tell my hubby the baby ate them all so he can buy us more ☺️

Avatar

If i hear (or smell) my baby having a nasty poop, I’ll wait a couple minutes and hope his father will notice or walk in the room so he can change the babies diaper instead of me. He enjoys it and i do not. 🤢

Avatar

When my kids didn’t know how to read , I used to read the last word of every line of every page of a story and be done in ten minutes. Lol.

Avatar

This hasn’t happened often I swear!!


I work full time and there may have been a time or two on my day off with my Little one I honestly didn’t feel like doing chores all day so we hung out all day and played and maybe an hour or 2 before dad came home we started master cleaning (hard vacuuming) so it seemed like we were busy all day 😇
Dad didn’t notice the difference lol

Avatar

some days i just let my child get herself snacks all day so i don’t have to cook. and what i do make is in the microwave 😞 i feel guilty because providing healthy food has always been important to me. then again i havent been able to walk in 5 weeks (on crutches) so... justified laziness??😰

Avatar

I found out I could control what my son is watching from my phone to the t.v. So when it’s time for bath I just put on bath songs for kids. First time it happened he turned the tv off came upstairs and said someone is controlling the t.v.I told him it’s Santa.Ever since then he believes Santa is watching and does what’s needed by me. LOL.

I'm pansexual and really want a girlfriend. I have 3 kids and an understanding husband. I don't believe that monogamy is for everyone. I've never cheated on him but miss the feeling I get from being with a woman.

Avatar

I'll tell my husband I need to go and get wipes for our daughter, so he'll give me cash. I'll go to target by myself and walk around for a while and then go to Starbucks and spend the money he gave me. Little does he know, we still have wipes from our baby shower 🤷🏽‍♀️🙃😬

Love my husband. Love my kids. But…

I’m 32 weeks pregnant with twins. I take care of my 4 yo, 2 yo, and 1 yo. I barely have energy to stand anymore. I cuddle and watch movies with my kids all day at this point. My husband is less pushy in this pregnancy in wanting to be touched or love up on me. But I feel more like a tool these days more than ever. He gets frustrated (not to a crazy degree) but I can tell he huffs because he’s probably sexually frustrated from me not wanting to be touched on. (my boobs are super sensitive atm) I love having the babies part, but the pregnancy also now has me feeling like a baby making machine. And a tool with big boobs made for touches and my husbands pleasure. Ofc I love my husband and kids, but with my hormones all wack, it really doesn’t feel the same when you’re not turned on. It’s so hard for me to get turned on. I’m uncomfortable all the time in my own body. Babies moving in there all the time. My children cuddle me all day but get rowdy at the end of the day, so I end up getting touched out and I can get irritable when my husband tries to touch me affectionately. He doesn’t have the tact necessary for me right now, when I wish he wanted to go in for a normal comforting hug I’m let down more often than not, there is almost always a boob groping involved as well. I tried to just let him touch me last night so he could get it out of his system, but he could tell I felt tense. Wish my boobs weren’t such an uncomfortable place for me to be touched. Idk why I’m making this post. Probably just to vent. Wish men were equally as emotionally intelligent as women. Wish I didn’t feel like I still owe him something because he’s picking up a lot of the house load and yet I still need to ask him to do more before these twins arrive. He’s tired every day when he comes home, so he takes a shower sometimes works out, and helps get the kids to bed. So it’s a struggle getting him to help any further than that. Weekends are my only time to get to him. But it’s a struggle to find time on weekends too. I know if he wanted to he would. But there’s just no drive.

Maternity leave Employment rights?

I have 6 weeks left of work and they have completely changed my job spec including my job title and all my responsibilities, they have done this ahead of advertising my maternity cover apparently to fit business needs which I am fine with but i explained as long as it doesn’t effect me before I go. They have now turned round and said they want me to do the training for it before I go and want me to sign a variation in contract asap. Are they allowed to do this? I thought you had the right to come back to the same job within 26 weeks and I haven’t even left yet and they’re changing it? I was going to see what the job was when I got back and go from there but now they’re wanting me to sign this change in contract before I go I don’t know what to do, do I have to sign it ?
