(slang) maman de bébé, (formal)mère célibataire


Explanation:
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=baby mama
il s'agit d'une tournure qui vient du dialecte afro-américain :
A term used to define an unmarried young woman (but can be a woman of any age) who has had a child. As mentioned before in another definition, most of the time it is used for when it was simply a sexual relationship, compared to ex-wife or girlfriend. Usually this has a negative connotation, a lot of baby mamas are seen as desperate, gold digging, emotionally starved, shady women who had a baby out of spite or to keep a man.

Example sentence(s):
  • Urban Word of the Day The mother of your child(ren), whom you did not marry and with whom you are not currently involved. Oh her? She ain\'t nothing to me now, girl, she just my baby mama. So, can I get your number?

Reference: Baby Mama

Reference information:
Baby Mama
A woman who has a child out of wedlock with a man. She may or may not be in a relationship with the man, but most of the time, she's not. She may think she has some sort of position or leverage in the man's life, just because she had a child with the man, but all she is, is a baby mama, nothing else. Some baby mamas use the child as a pawn or weapon to "get what they want" from the child's father, IE: money, food, sex, etc. If the man is in a realtionship with a woman who has no children, the baby mama may become jealous and cause baby mama drama.

A stereotype associated with baby mama's is they are poor, lazy bitches who trapped the man into getting her pregnant or tricked him by saying she was on the pill, thinking the man would pay her way in life just because she has a child with him. Not all baby mama's are like that. The majority of them just act like they can control the man just because they had a seed with them, and make it difficult for the man and threaten to take the child away or sue for more child support if the baby mama doesn't get her way.
Damn, there go Jayro's baby mama. That bitch is always trying to get something from him.

Yo, did you hear about Reggie's baby mama? That bitch got an extra $600 a month from him in child support, now he broke as a joke!!

I don't mess with Mookie anymore. Ever since his baby mama found out about us being together, she won't stop calling him.

I'll never be a baby mama. I'm wifey material, and a man ain't gon get me pregnant without marrying me first!!!!

Man, my baby mama talking crazy. That bitch said if I don't come over and give her some money, I won't be able to see my son.

Bitch, you just a baby mama. If he really loved you, you'd be his wife.
