This week in the Scary Mommy Confessional, there’s a lot of talk about starting and expanding families: from the reader who’s just about to go off birth control, to the one who just gave birth on the freeway, to the couple who have yet to inform one set of parents that their toddler exists. Of course, that’s not all people wanted to share. Read on for confessions about open marriages, pickleball-obsessed MILs, and more.

Scary Mommy Confessions are a tried-and-true part of what makes our site so fun. If you want to browse past Confessions, head here.

I’m gonna stop birth control this weekend 😬​
