Mum Shares Amusing Confession About Being a ‘Bad Mum’ Sometimes

A mum has made a cringe-worthy but amusing ‘bad mum’ confession that perhaps all mums can relate to.

Mum, Laura Mazza from Melbourne, has shared in her blog,�Mum on the Run, how despite having two happy and healthy children, two-year-old Luca and nine-month-old Sofia, she, too, experiences ‘bad mum’ moments.

On Tuesday, Laura made a post�detailing her most amusing, cringeworthy and relatable ‘sh***y mum confessions,’ such as sending her son to daycare with a runny nose, being distracted by technology and using her children to ‘get out of things.’

“Some days my children and I will stay in pyjamas all day… and I’ll pretend we all got changed in them when my husband gets home,” she wrote.

“I sometimes have dirt on my tops and I blame it on my kids even though it’s not from them,” she added.

Laura�also admitted that she saves post-4pm messy nappies for her husband when he returns home and often blames forgetfulness on her children and a ‘lack of sleep,’ even though she’s just forgetful. She also says she allows her son to�eat toast three times a day ‘because he doesn’t want anything else’ and she’s�’too lazy to argue with him.’

One of Ms Mazza’s most amusing confessions has something to do with her use of the crèche at her gym.

“I took my children to creche at the gym and sat in the cafe drinking coffee reading a magazine,” she wrote.

Despite her confession, she says she doesn’t really see herself as a ‘sh***y mum’ at all.

“We all do our best and sometimes it’s okay to be less than perfect because we are still good enough!

“I love my children more than the world, and would breathe my last breath for them, but if it’s between nappies or wine, you best believe they’re going commando,” she wrote.

Laura, who started her blog after giving birth to her son,�hopes to inspire other mothers to stop worrying about being ‘perfect’ and to just accept themselves.

“Life begins now it doesn’t wait for you to be a perfect weight or the perfect size. You don’t want to look back in 50 years having regretted wasting time waiting for the perfect body size to start living your life,” she said.
