A single mother is a human female single parent. They are generally included in the categories of single persons and unwed mothers.

Single motherhood may occur for a variety of reasons. It could be opted for by the parent (as in divorce, adoption, artificial insemination, surrogate motherhood, or extramarital pregnancy), or be the result of an unforeseeable occurrence (such as death or abandonment by one parent).
