As hilarious as it is universal, each chapter presents a common parenting scenario with advice on how to get through it in the easiest and most efficient way possible. With chapters such as “How to Sleep Until 9 A.M. Every Weekend” and “When Seeing an Infant Triggers a Mental Illness That Makes You Want to Have Another Baby,” as well as a Sh*tty Mom quiz, this is a must-have, laugh-out-loud funny book for the sh*tty parent in all of us.

“Smartly, brashly, nearly criminally funny. It also—no small thing—carries a powerful message to all parents, but especially moms, that distilled to its essence is this: chill.” —Time.com

“Sh*tty Mom does for motherhood what Chelsea Handler does for female scatology. It’s a long overdue little burst of honesty from the supposed minority of mothers who are, in fact, not that maternal. . . . After a generation of supermoms one-upping each other in dead earnest on playgrounds and schoolyards, the emerging mass appeal of Sh*tty Mom is a welcome relief.” —New York Observer

Special Orders 

To allow our store to offer the most options as possible we partner with some of our key vendors to allow for Special Orders. Special Orders consist of merchandise that we do not stock or is currently back ordered with the vendor and Special Orders either ship directly from the vendor or they're shipped to us upon purchase and we ship directly to the customer. 

Any items purchased from specific brands (listed below) OR have a special order variant are considered FINAL SALE and cannot be cancelled or exchanged for any reason per vendor policies.

Because of this process, ALL special orders take additional time to ship. If your order contains BOTH in-stock and special order variants your order will ship complete unless additional shipping is paid to split the order and ship separately.

Special Order Vendors

Annie Selke, Dash & Albert, Pine Cone Hill, Julie Vos, Juliska, Oh My Mahjong, VIETRI, Bodrum, Mackenzie Childs, Casafina, Costa Nova, Mottahedeh, Estelle Colored Glass, John Robshaw, Banwood, and Simon Pearce. 

How do I tell if it's a special order?

Most of the brands above will have 2-3 variant options. Single means IN-STOCK at our store and ready to ship. Anything sold in sets or via Special Order variant means it will need to be ordered from the vendor.

Shipping & Exchanges

Orders are processed within 3-5 business days, Tuesday-Friday. Please note during our busy season, October-December and during any special sale events orders will take additional time to process. Processing means prepare for shipment & does NOT include the actual time of shipping transit.

Once items are prepared/processed for shipment, standard shipping in the continental US takes 2-7 business days in transit. Most items are shipped from Atlanta, Georgia.
