My MASH results never included a kid staring me dead in eyes while I’m on the toilet, yet here we are

Behind every Mom is ...

A basket of dirty laundry Happy Mothers Day

I must say, I think we might have a mini Picasso living under our roof

My 18 month old daughter when confront by a quandary stares menacingly and blows raspberries until said situation resolved itself.

I wonder if that applies itself in the adult environment? I’m definitely trying that next time I’m in the office.

Yesterday, as usual was a busy stressful working day. No longer living close to my adult children has been challenging, full of missed moments, noisy FaceTimes with the grand children and endless messages with them all. As I sat at my desk ploughing ...

I love them to death, but god, raising them is like reading hyroglifics blindfolded

On Monday my eldest daughter turns 8

"On the night you were born, the moon shone with such wonder that the stars peeked in to see you and the night wind whispered, ‘Life will never be the same.’ Because there had never been anyone like you...ever in the world." I don't ...

How do you let go

When you have been a parent for so long and every choice you make is because of your children, it is hard to now make a choice where I have only thought of me. I feel selfish sometimes, and quite often sad as the days move forward. I have moved away...

Thursday December 17, 2020! 22 years ago this day I gave birth to identical twin boys! Happy Birthday Pete and Repeat!

I never thought that I would ever be a mom to two beautiful children. Two amazing children. I love my kids so much. They are so full of love and laughter. How did I get so lucky?

They can be funny when they want to 😂

Today I was in the car with my kids and we got into the topic of Christmas. I had mentioned that I had gotten them all gifts that would keep them busy and entertain them through quarantine, I got them books and board games which are all things they ...

Proud parent of a great kid, who is sometimes a bastard, but that’s okay

Afraid To Do This Alone....

I've kicked my husband out after I found out he bought lingerie for another woman...the attorney process has been started... Our two year old son is going to suffer because of his infidelity... My son asks for his father throughout the day whil...

He is the Best Thing I Ever Planned

I am the proud mom of a rambunctious 2 year old boy who I love more than anything and anyone. Since the day he was born, I knew no one would ever take his place in my heart. Currently he is at a stage in his life where he would see an object, tell...

I hate doctor’s appointments

Today I had to take the day off from work in order to take one of my kids to see his neurosurgeon, every time I have to make an appointment with them I fear the worst and my anxiety quite honestly maxes out. Luckily everything went smoothly today, n...

I don’t want my kids to grow up

We are moving, and today I went down with my kids to our basement and had them go through boxes of their old books, school things, toys, etc. I asked them to pick and choose what was coming with us, what was being donated, and what was being tossed o...

Single mother to a wonderful teenage daughter.

Hi everyone :-)!!! Can someone give me a tip on how to work from home, taking care of your toddler while working, house chores and taking care of your own self.. :-( I'm so tired and stressed with all this

💕Alexis Paige💕 2-2-20💕 best thing that’s ever happened to me!

I will be, in June. Although it’s certainly much earlier than I would have liked to welcome a baby, I’m so excited to. My boyfriend is away at university though and I only see him every couple of months, which is really difficult for me. 👶🏼

Today was an okay day. Yes, just okay. My LO(little one) is 20months old and it seems that i still can not grasp motherhood. For example my temper is shorter, my patience is extremely shorter and i am extremely stressed. I am honestly stressed for no...

I am a mother first and foremost. I love being a mom, but I had major gender disappointment finding out my 3rd was another girl. I'm over it now.. kind of.. I want more kids but I'm so scared of them all being girls.. eh.. feelings! How is...

I am a mother, and it's been the greatest blessing in my life

Haha! I’ve done this thinking it was rotten food or something..

Is there anybody here who would be interested in hearing my story? I like to write and I often write and reflect about my time being pregnant.

I hope everything goes well.. I have been marriage almost 3 years. I still don't have kids. It's because i have sickness a few years ago. Sometime I felt sad.. My husband always supporting me with kindness words.. She said those things wit...

My single most biggest achievement and the most difficult job.

I remember going along to our 12 week scan whilst pregnant. I was worried that there wasn't a little baby inside me after all and that my husband would be so disappointed. It felt weird for him to be coming to a hospital appointment with me. ...

You know what’s the hardest thing of having a newborn??? THE NONSTOP CRYING! Sleep is officially nonexistent. I find myself bouncing the baby at 2 in the morning singing “Hush little baby” The first days were the worst. The 3rd night home, he wo...

It ain't easy, let me tell you 😆. I would say that the past 15 years have definitely been a learning experience for me, but a great one.

I had an emergency C section because my contractions were slowing down the baby’s heart rate and he was at risk, but luckily everything went great, and we are both healthy to go home today. I’m still in pain, and I can barely cough without feeling li...

I became a mother on February 19th 2019 at 11:18pm. And today I get to go home with my beautiful baby boy. ❤️❤️❤️

You know you’ve just about lost it, when going to target by yourself is like a whole vacation. 👏🏻

Don’t you just despise when other mothers/fathers try to interfere with your parenting? First of all, I’m the mom, I know what’s best for my children, I know how to handle them. Every child is different, and every mother/father parents different to w...

I love shopping in the scrum of a mall during Christmas but it wears off after about 20 minutes of getting bumped and pushed around in the small stores. Most wonderful time of the year, I suppose! :)

I am the blessed mother of the most amazing little girl. Her name is Hope Amari which means gift from God. She is truly a blessing and I feel so incredibly blessed that of all the little children in heaven God chose her for me. I love this child like...

By the time I realized my mother was right, I had a kid, who thinks I’m wrong. 🤦🏻‍♀️ And the circle continues

I feel like my child doesn’t trust me with anything, he won’t tell me anything that ever happens, and it worries me that if something bad would ever happen he wouldn’t trust me enough to tell me about it. I have no idea what I am doing wrong. How can...

I truly do feel like my son saved my life or maybe gave it more of a purpose. Before i had him i truly felt as if i walked this world without anyone truly loving me simply for me. That no one saw me simply for me. His love changed that for me. I see ...

I had a baby when I was in High-School. I went into labor while in class.

My twins are 4 months old today! They're the best things that have ever happened to me. 😁

My oldest is getting his learner’s permit tomorrow. I’m not crying, you’re crying!

There’s a bit of our mothers in us all,,, 💗

I love them ❤

On my way to see my mom in the nursing home. Although I love her, I am also dreading the never ending emotional abuse

I had my daughter back in December and I’ve never been happier.

Looking for excersise i can do with a 5 month old. Its winter here fridgid cold so i wont be taking walks with the baby untill spring.but i would love to get some excersise throughout the day.

This is so true!! 😂

What do you think is the hardest part of being a parent?

Can hardly remember what it was like before I was, lol.

I don't know why I try being nice and sweet with my son, I know for a fact he won't come out of his room or even respond to my calls until I'm screaming like a psycho from the kitchen for him to come eat. 🙄

I love my boy all the way to the moon and back. He's my inspiration always giving me something to hold to in this world. Long life my prince charming. You are!the best

A parent will only ever be in 1 of 3 places. In front of their child to cheer them on. Behind them to have their back. Next to them so they don't walk alone. My kids are my babies, they were yesterday, they are today, and will always be. They ...

The boy has transitioned from youth size jeans to men's, and a youth size 7 shoe to a men's size 9. When did his feet become bigger than mine?? 😭

I never actually realised as a child, but once you start singing nursery rhymes to your own child you notice how bloody sinister most of them are...😐

I just had my second child today at 6am this morning. Noah Alexander, 7lbs 7oz. Natural labor is terrible. But I'll recover quickly :) I'm happy.

How much do you typically spend on your children’s Christmas gift? I want my kids to feel special, but I don’t want to go overboard...

There is a saying in Korean that there is one sided love between mothers and sons. Could this be true?

It’s so heart breaking and exhausting when one of your child gets upset with you for being a parent then calls his dad and says he rather live with him. You can’t win. Everything seem so unfair. It feels hopeless sometimes...

I've been a bit nostalgic for my boy's younger years. He was a mellow, curious little boy who wanted not much more than his Legos and Matchbox cars, and opportunities to be near the water. I've raised him on my own since the day he was...

My son is diligently working on a nest egg of his own 😉 See pic above "If I had a dollar for every assignment I left until the night before"

To all the Australian mums...back to school gate grind 😉

This woman speaks my language...(pic attached) "Um, regarding Wacky Hair Day. The thing is, kids are naturally anxious about their appearance just really on any given day, so to disrupt the routine, you know, a routine that some of us are bare...

Peace out xxx (pic attached)

Hip-hip hooray for school holidays 🎉 It's been a tough term, particularly for my youngest child so, for something special I got 3 types of ice creams for a celebratory afternoon tea. I'm pleased to report it was enjoyed by all 😋

If you're a mother of small children, you know dinner time can be a battlefield. However, I am pleased to announce: for 3 nights running, there have been ZERO complaints/rejections at the dinner table. All 3 children have eaten everything on t...

I am honestly amazed sometimes at the lengths my youngest will go, to not have her hair brushed in the morning. I was going crazy this morning looking for her brush everywhere and only discovered later in the day it had been 'hiding' in t...

I love my little family so much. Each child with his/her unique personality, each so infinitely precious. Sometimes they send me mad, but at the end of the day, I am head over heels for my little people. I am so proud of who they are becoming. I ...

So, tomorrow is Mothers Day. It's an interesting day. The whole mother thing...mothers present, mothers passed, mothers-in-waiting, mothers of angels, mothers estranged, mother monsters, mothers MIA...there's one for all of us. We...

I truly feel as though I have failed my children in so many areas. Hopefully I will wake up tomorrow feeling more positive with better resolve.

Great Advice From My 11 Year Old Son... Mom, I always keep my socks that I'm going to wear for the day on top of the xBox because then they are nice and warm when i put them on for the day.

This little lad literally brightens up my days.

I am a mother of two amazing boys, but definitely going through some struggles right now. My husband and I are really having trouble in our marriage, and I am not sure how much longer things can go on. We fight all the time, and the intimacy is gone...

It's just hit me that if I do talk to my mum tomorrow & all goes how I want it to go then my daughter could be finding out I'm her mum really soon!! 😱 Lol god I'll have to figure out how to be a good mum.

Before I became a mother, I had heard all about how exhausting, frustrating and all around difficult it was, the constant pressures and obligations that come along in having children. The cons seemed to outweigh the pros. But when I became one I knew...

Hence why I joined Similar Worlds; to talk to other parents. I may not have her here yet, but I'm so excited to meet her.

I am the mother of twin sons that we adopted from birth. No mother could love her children more than I do my sons. I am surprised and honored to see my previous avatar on this group.

This is so true hahaha Happy Moms Day

I'm putting my daughter in child care on Monday. I'm super sad. I know I need to work, but I just want to be with her all the time.

My favourite human being, soon to be beings, on this planet. 🌎

It doesn't feel like two minutes since I found out I was pregnant with B, and now he's two and he has a brother/sister on the way in a few weeks. It's crazy!

I have two beautiful daughters whom I love with all my heart and soul.They are both sweethearts and really good kids.I feel very lucky to be a mother to them.

My kids are awesome. After picking up mega and mini munchkin I go through my obsessive switching of radio stations. Finally hear the first few notes of Freebird. From the back seat I hear "oooh turn it up" from my son, and clapping from my ...

My heart broke into million peices today when bubba brought me a picture of his daddy and I and asked "where am i?". I told him he wasnt born yet. He seemed content with the answer but all thats pressing on my mind today is my little boy wi...

So we finally made our mind on the new nursery for N. It's located nearby H's workplace so that's pretty convenient. Cheaper and looks promising too as it's a franchise and not privately owned like the previous nursery. Heard grea...

Yep, it works ;) 😈

You know when you get one of those days when you just don’t want any responsibility put on you and you get it anyway. Today for me was one of those days. I am alone at home. I am the housewife. I organise everything but today I just wanted to hid...

Yes I am a mother of 3......2 cats and a bunny😝😝😂😂

I have a 3 year old son. Who is the light of my life. He started early childhood development classes a few weeks ago. He loves it.

The kids went back to school today and I know I'm doing something right as I watch them so excited to be back. Didn't think that my daughter going into year 6 would affect me so much but it just felt like yesterday I was holding her hand a...

My heart goes out to a friend that lost his son to overdose today. He had been struggling with addiction for years. I hugged my own kids extra tight before bed tonight.

Just been reminded of being at work and pulling out my laptop in a meeting only to find it covered with superhero stickers ❤️😂💻

Back to school shopping is officially completed! Crossed the last item off the lists. Found a 2" green binder, red plastic folder with 3 holes and pockets and fasteners, a white eraser, yellow college ruled 250 page composition book...So happy t...

On Point!!! 👍
