Have you cashed in on your hipster status for motherhood?
Our post Mom Officially Loses Her Cool resonated with our readers. Apparently, since having kids, many moms think they've lost their edge. We get it -- it's hard be hip when
you're wiping spit up off your shoulder -- and don't even get us started
on mom jeans.
Think you may have lost your cool? If you answer YES to four or more of the following questions, it's time to face the fact that your hipster days -- like your flat stomach -- are far, far behind you.

#15. You actually look forward to heading to Target for a shopping spree.

So cute…and true! Can you do one for the dads? *lol*
- Aradia
the only one that actually applies to me is: “When digging in your purse for lipstick, do you pull out any of the following: pacifier, Matchbox car, fossilized animal cracker?” but I also pulled out random cookies and toys from my purse pre-baby! lol
- Naomi
wow the only one that applies to me is maybe the forever 21 one. But because I just can’t fit in the clothes their anymore. They are made way to short haha. I guess Im not a good judge considering my son is 14 so I dont have to deal with the toys in the purse or the disney tween queens.
- mary
Yay! I’m apparently still hip! However, my kids are teenagers now, so that helps as far as not knowing about play areas and pulling out matchstick cars. Just wait till your kids grow up some….then you can be hip again!
- Devilish Southern Belle
I see myself in lots of those, but I did just buy myself a pair of jeans in the JUNIORS dept. at Macy’s! My 12 year was not impressed, however…
- sarah
Man now I feel even older. I fit into most of those, so sad :( Only plus is that teenagers actually like hanging out at my house and with me. We all have a great time talking and playing games and joking around. So I guess I’m getting old, but still kind of cool :)
- Wendi
I apply to practically all of these, my oldest is seven and I feel so much like my mother….here is one….Do you purposely start a conversation with the cashier at a store just to have a true excuse for being gone from the kids that much longer, Or how about….Do you miss a credit card payment just so you can have and adult to talk to in the middle of the day! HaHa my favorites!
- joy
Well, I guess I am still pretty cool then. I just moved to a new town…I don’t even think there is a play area in the small … town…no cars in my purse :)just diapers..lol…still didn’t make it to four of them tho. …so you are looking at one cool chick!!! Well, in my mind I am at least..lol..great post!

Hi! That’s a cute list. My daughter is now a 14 yr. old freshman. I have never been able to wear the smaller clothes & always have loved the granny panties! Lol, my daughter & her friend’s usually say I’m the cool Mom. So as long as I have their approval, I don’t worry:}
- Tracy
No granny panties but not thongs either cuz they just get on my nerves, no crackers in the purse, no mom jeans, and I shopped at Forever 21 yesterday, though the L size was too tight in the jacket even though I’m a size 10, but found some very fun earrings and bracelets. : ) Semi-cool? Semi-uncool? Maybe, but I don’t really care. : ) Fun post.
- Suzanne Eller
OH THANK GOD! I’M STILL CONSIDERED COOL! LOL.
- praying4baby#2
Oh I am not cool anymore according to this test. It’s bad when you can sing the entire theme song for ‘The Suite Life of Zack and Cody’. Argh.
- priiacosmetics
Okay, Awesome. I twittered back before looking. This is hilarious. I am happy to stay that if I’m going by your chart, I’m still pretty darn cool.
- Julie maloney
Yay, I’m still cool! (I knew that. :b ) Only 1 out of all of ‘em!
