It's not a cliché when people say being a parent is the hardest job in the world. And being a mom in particular comes with its own unique set of challenges. That's why whether your a mom yourself in need of a laugh (sometimes to save you from crying) or you're looking for a way to bring a smile to your mom's face, these funny quotes about motherhood are just what the doctor ordered.
We pulled quips that are sarcastic, short, cute — you name it — from our favorite celebrity moms for inspiration. Yep, even though they walk red carpets, they definitely know all about the good, the bad and the gross that comes with motherhood.
If you're looking for a saying for your mom, use one of these in in a card, in a toast or make it part of the perfect Mother's Day caption. Or, if you're a mom — new or seasoned — bask in the honesty of these quotations and know that even if it feels like it, you're really never alone in the highs and lows of mothering.

First of all, you haven't seen your vagina in months, even though it's all her fault you're in this situation. Now that you can finally confirm that she is, in fact, still there, she isn't the gal that you remember, and would rather you back off and give her some space (and an ice diaper) for the time being, thank you very much.

I can be covered in spit up on a conference call while I'm pumping and that's okay, because this is my perfect. It may not be somebody else's, but this is mine.

Every day when you're raising kids, you feel like you could cry or crack up and just scream 'This is ridiculous!' because there's so much nonsense, whether it's what they're saying to you or the fact that there's avocado or poop on every surface.

After we got home from the hospital, I didn't shower for a week, and then John and I were like, 'Let's go out for dinner.' I could last only about an hour because my boobs were exploding. When the milk first comes in, it's like a tsunami. But we went, just to prove to ourselves that we could feel normal for a second.
