What is a mom supposed to look like?

Maybe? I don't know. Mostly I look frumpy.

I'm sure I probably do!

Although, people usually seem genuinely surprised when I tell them my age, so at least there's that, lol.

My hair is pretty long and I style it and wear it down most days, so I think maybe that keeps me from looking too frumpy? But it's not like people are mistaking me for the teenage babysitter or anything so...maybe?

I look like a grandma some days!!!!

I try to maintain my sense of style but I definitely have under eye circles that don't want to go away! I do seem to be the only mom that shows up at the play gym or story time in dresses (but that's just my summer go-to!)

I SO look like a mom and I love it. Although luckily I once overheard someone say "There are so many young mothers in this neighborhood" as I walked by with my son. I am 37 years old so hopefully that means I look like a young mom.

This hair though. That's a mom

People always want me to cut it super short again but I know if I can't keep up with long hair my short hair will enter soccer mom territory WAY too fast for me to allow it!

I think so, when I am using my son as an accessory. Other times, no.

Yes.

@Cherrybee: I feel like a grandma most days!

I would like to say I don't look like a mom, but that's something for others to judge?
Should have asked all of us to post a photo
@MrsMccarthy: If you look like a mom, You definitely look like a hot young mom!

I look the same as I did before, just with longer hair and bigger boobs. I'm only 22 so I think most people would say I look too young to be a mom.. Unless they see me walking around with a stroller

@MrsMccarthy: Gorgeous pic!

@cyndistar: Not sure if you look like a mom, but this is a great photo!

I think I look the same as before, like a college student, just with bigger boobs (like @sunderling) and WAAAAY more tired.

I guess so? I like it most of the time though... I am a mom! I do wish I looked more out together though. I go through phases but lately I've been looking a little sloppy so I have I work on that!

I honestly have no idea. What is mom criteria; is there a checklist or something? I think I look more shlubby than before I had a kid, but I sure hope that's not what I'm supposed to look like!

Ha...Probably. I think the unwashed hair & drowsiness gives me away. I need to focus on becoming more of a MILF. Haha.
