To really hate the phrase "yummy mummy"

[Mammylamb]

Lots of lovely people use this phrase (especially when a new mum posts a photo of her and baby on Facebook) but I just hate it! It sounds so false. Some people comment this on my photos; and trust me, I am not yummy!

[LyingWitchInTheWardrobe2726]

I don't like it either. Not when people post it about other women or worse - when women post it about themselves. It's on par with the vile MILF

[BeautyGoesToBenidorm]

It's twee beyond. I inwardly roll my eyes when I hear women I know describe themselves as yummy mummies. Mind you, I dislike the word 'mummy' when it's used by anyone other than a child!

[BBQsAreSooooOverrated]

Yup. Don't like it at all

[everythingis]

It's twee as hell. I like milf though it gets to the point

[Farfromtheusual]

It makes me cringe so so much!!!

[EdmundCleverClogs]

It's so waits to be flamed chavtastic. Sort of thing they use to describe zeleb mums in low rate magazines/daily mail or on This Morning .

[MilkTwoSugarsThanks]

I suspect I would have less of a problem with it if I was one!

As it is, I'm not. So YANBU.

[Justmuddlingalong]

I think high maintenance when I hear that phrase. Not a compliment IMO.

[frikadela01]

As much as it makes me cringe I have noticed that the women who use this to describe them selves on Facebook do tend to have built their entire personality and life around being a mum and it actually makes me quite sad. A wan I used to be very close with calls herself this and her Facebook is full of memes about being a mum and the kids, I know behind it all is a funny, intelligent, interesting woman but if you only saw her Facebook you'd think she was just a mum.

[RochelleGoyle]

YANBU, it's a hideous term.

[Mammylamb]

Glad it's not just me. Was beginning to feel guilty about being a bit snobby! Would never be horrible to someone in real life who said this. It just sets my teeth on edge! Partly I think it's due to women getting judged on how they look. I'm a grown woman; not a little pretty princess. I've got a job, a baby and a life to lead; being "yummy" isn't something I aspire to. Being "super organised and efficient" is

[MilkTwoSugarsThanks]

Ooooohhhh... "super organised and efficient".

When you crack it, please PM me

[everythingis]

Frika - I agree

[snozzlemaid]

There's a woman at work who has a mug with this on. She's 55 and about to be a grandmother!
Awful phrase.

[justinelibertine]

I'm more like a Crummy Mummy...

[EatTheCake]

I love yummy mummy, last week dropping off youngest at nursery one of the other mums told me that's what I was I had a cheesy smile all day

[Slightlyperturbedowlagain]

YANB

[Slightlyperturbedowlagain]

YANBU

[glueandstick]

I identify with 'slummy mummy'

[Pinkheart5915]

I kind of like it.
I've no complaints at being called a yummy mummy

[nearlyreadytopop]

Hate it. Why do mothers need another label? What's the alternative, a non yummy mummy? I don't get why anyone would label themselves with it

[Sparlklesilverglitter]

I don't mind it and I've been called far worse in this life than a yummy mummy, I'll take it a compliment

[pipsqueak25]

i was once called a snob because i said i hated ! the expression 'yummy mummy' , but it's a bit common imho, i'd never see it as a compliment, i'd rather be seen as oity toity

[buzzlightyearsdinosaur]

For me it is up there with 'mumtrepreneur', I am not sure which one I hate the most.

[polyhymnia]

I didn't think it was ever used seriously, these days at least - see it as ironic, stereotyping. and not really a compliment.
