By now, most of us have heard of Type A and Type B personalities. But TikTok, in all its chaotic, caffeinated glory, has ushered in a new maternal archetype: the Type C mom. And if you’ve ever searched for your debit card in the fridge, used Apple Pay out of pure survival, or offered your toddler the choice between “Daniel Tiger or nap,” then congratulations—you might just be one of them.
That’s the premise of a viral TikTok video by Taylor Vasquez, a mom of two, self-proclaimed “Type C personality,” and woman currently fielding tens of thousands of comments from moms shouting in the digital void: “This. Is. Me.”

Wait—what is a type C mom?
The term isn’t scientific (yet), but Type C moms are quickly becoming the internet’s favorite new identity. They’re loving, attentive, deeply involved—but also overstimulated, semi-forgetful, and so clearly not Type A. Think: late to daycare drop-off but remembered the sunscreen; emotionally attuned but always a little mentally scrambled. There’s a gentle chaos to it all, a lived-in humanness that’s resonating with millions.
In her video, Taylor narrates a day-in-the-life:
“I can’t find my debit card anywhere, but they should take Apple Pay, right?”
“I’m so overstimulated if I hear someone say ‘mom’ one more time, I’m going to lose it.”
“We need to use the free and gentle for Brody’s clothes because he has sensitive skin.”
It’s raw. It’s funny. It’s painfully accurate. And it’s giving thousands of moms a moment of deeply-needed validation.

The comments section? Basically group therapy in the best way
With more than 9,000 comments and counting, Taylor Vasquez’s comment section has become a full-blown confessional booth for moms who are tired of pretending they’ve got it all together.
@tschlu wrote: “IVE NEVER FELT MORE SEEN IN MY WHOLE LIFE.”
@ashley chimed in with the rallying cry of the moment: “I knew I wasn’t type A and I knew I wasn’t type B. That’s because I am this 🤣 I’m type C!”
And @momlifelens05 shared: “I thought I was type A with ADHD… but nope here I am! this is my village 😅😊”
Several moms, like @brendylashay, reflected on the deeper neurodivergent undercurrents: “I thought I was a type C mom but after some ChatGPT research I have undiagnosed ADHD 😂”
To be clear: A TikTok comment section isn’t a place for diagnoses—but it is a place where moms are recognizing themselves, sometimes for the first time. For many, the “Type C” label is less about clinical categories and more about emotional resonance. It’s a name for the mom who loses her debit card, finds it in a jacket pocket from last fall, and still makes it to Target—because that’s where the real strength lies.
Why this moment feels bigger than a meme
Yes, TikTok trends come and go—but this one hit a nerve, not just a For You Page. Moms didn’t just watch Taylor Vasquez’s video; they felt it in their bones. The mental juggling, the overstimulation, the running internal monologue that goes from laundry detergent to “Cars” on repeat—it’s not a punchline. It’s a lifestyle.
And it’s striking a chord in a culture where modern motherhood often feels like a performance of control in a system designed for chaos. There’s no federal paid leave, childcare costs more than rent in some cities, and the myth of the “perfect mom” still dominates Pinterest and preschool pickup alike.
So when a video like this cuts through the noise with real, messy, funny truth—it doesn’t just go viral. It gives language to a kind of motherhood we’ve all been quietly living. And now, we’re loud about it.

TL; DR: If you’re a type C mom, you’re not alone
Whether you’re laughing through the chaos or quietly crying into your coffee, you’re part of a growing tribe of mothers redefining what it means to be “good.” Type C isn’t a failure of organization—it’s a win for authenticity.
So the next time you’re watching Cars for the third time while eating crackers over the sink, remember: You’re not a mess. You’re a Type C mom—and finally, you’ve found your people.
Sponsored shoutout to @Tide Laundry, who Taylor tagged in the video, because even Type C moms need detergent that gets it.
