Different mummy types

Wherever you live, you’ll meet these mummy types as you go about your day

Competitive Mummy

Anything your tot can do, hers can do better. While your little one’s best trick is hanging spaghetti hoops off her nose, her baby Einstein could count to 10 by the time he was one.

Yummy Mummy

Yes, her with the blow-dried hair, skinny jeans and organic home-made baby purées. Yummy Mummy may look perfect with her designer buggy and togs to match, but you can bet she has to get up at the crack of dawn to keep up the façade. Whatever.   

Nervy Mummy

She’s always fretting. ‘Is my baby too hot?’ ‘Is my baby too cold?’ ‘Will that extra bit of cheese I gave him at lunchtime give him tummyache?’ All mums have their niggles from time to time but Nervy Mum is on panic mode 24/7. Chill, lady, your tot and you will be much happier if you just learn to go with the flow

Your real mummy mate

Sometimes she looks a mess because the baby’s been up all night. She doesn’t pretend it’s all perfect or easy, and sometimes she just wants to go to bed for two weeks and let someone else do all the hard work. She’ll support you through the good and the not-so-good bits and knows exactly what you’re going through. 

Mummy mates are also great for meeting up with to exchange tips and experiences - especially when it comes to making those all-important baby buy decisions. So why not merge the two into one and get together for a coffee at your nearest  baby-friendly Tesco café?

It’s not only a great place to meet for a natter, it’s also the perfect opportunity to get your hands on everyday essentials at great value-for-money prices, from birthing-kit essentials to innovative breastfeeding pumps and health products.

There’s everything for you and your baby under one roof to help make the cost of parenthood that little bit easier – and hassle-free!

For those times when you can’t get out to meet up, why not visit tesco.com/babyclub - a genuine 24/7 club where mums can make new friends online using the chat room to share experiences.
