As a mum, you’re constantly worried that judgemental eyes are burning into the back of your head. Because you’re just not doing the ‘mum’ thing right.

You worry that you’ll get judged for not making your own organic baby food, or for the fact that you let your kid jump in muddy puddles, and now he’s walking home all wet and soggy.

But if you stop and listen, you’ll realise people aren’t judging you. They’re saying, “Good on you mum.” Because we all realise that the most important thing in life is to have fun, knowing we can deal with the mess later.

Mamamia and OMO Ultimate have teamed up with four of our favourite mums to recall the times when their kids made some impressive messes. Watch them laugh about it now.

Over to you, how did your views on what matters change after you had children?
