  • Vanessa · 1 year ago
    Have been getting some great submissions I just want to add down here, (if you submitted sites that I am not putting up, I am saving them for the next contests for best parenting site, dad blog etc)

    Fun Baby Blog

  • Michele · 1 year ago
    Thanks so much Vanessa! So exciting to be listed here with some of my favorite bloggers!
  • Loralee · 1 year ago
    If you are looking for good Dad blogs, you have to include dadgonemad.com.

    Funniest dad blog on the planet.
  • melissa · 1 year ago
    I'm so glad I found your sight through 5 Minutes for Mom! I look forward to the insight you provide. My girls are pre-teen; however my husband and I help with our church youth group.

    Great job!
  • Michelle Potter · 1 year ago
    Thanks for all the great links to check out! I'll be busy all day!

    However, I am really surprised that Mommy Life (http://mommylife.net/) is not on your list! Barbara Curtis is a mother of 12. Four of her sons have Down Syndrome, and three of those are adopted. (She had a son with DS and decided she wanted more!) She's also a published author of books on parenting, politics, and Montessori techniques (written to regular moms), and has over 900 published articles in newspapers and magazines all over the country. Best of all, she's very down-to-earth, not at all preachy. Just reading her blog feels like talking to your best friend -- your very smart, experienced, well-spoken best friend!

    You should REALLY check out Mommy Life (http://mommylife.net/).
  • Vanessa · 1 year ago
    Oh I will check it out! It was not submitted so I did not see it, oops. Well hopefully people will see it here. Maybe I will find some good articles and post them in my interesting articles of the week section, thanks for bringing to my attention!

  • Sadie Daniels · 1 year ago
    Hi Vanessa:
    I am not sure if you ever plan to update your list but I would love if you would consider me at some time in the future.

    A little bit about me....My name is Sadie and I am a New York City Mama, raising two wildly spontaneous girls, married to a totally lovable un-spontaneous man. Roll us all together and it just works.

    You can find me at www.heymamas.com, amusing myself and my family, with tales about my navigation through Life, Love, Marriage and Motherhood in New York City. I won't tell all the stories, just the good ones.

    Thanks Vanessa!!
  • momathome · 1 year ago

    One key to writing a good top mom blogs list is not have a billion images and links that bring down your reader's browser when they visit the page. I tried to view moms.alltop.com page and it brought my browser to its knees. I had to end task on Internet Explorer.

    Your list is much more readable and accessible. Thanks!
  • CanCan (MomMostTraveled) · 1 year ago
    What a great list! I'm inspired!

    Hi, what a great list, I think I'm never going to stop procrastinating with all these great blogs to read!

    Thought you might want to take a glance at my blog, I've been told by many that it has helped put their difficulties with mothering and life in general in perspective).

    http://www.micropreemies.com link to my blog is on there until I transfer it to that domain.

  • Fluttermom · 1 year ago

  • Cosmetic Surgery · 1 year ago
    Excellent site guys! great work!
  • A Week In The Life of A Redhea · 11 months ago
    And here I was told my website was the best blog about teenagers ... but what do I know? I'm just busy trying to keep my breasts from sagging to my ankles while beginning to look up at my son. There should be some rule that mothers remain one inch taller than their sons, thus growing with them. That way I am always arguing down ...
    Always,
    Catherine, the redhead blogger
  • Erin Skinner · 9 months ago

    Hello, by the way your looking fabolous, my name is Anthony and I do SEO at thecutekid.com, so i'll surf for related sites... see how they monetize... found yours... very cool.

    Oh yeah I also think you made a little booboo: "I read a ridiculous about of parenting websites.

    I think you mean Amount..."

    Regards!

    I didn't see list for new mom with frustration. I don't think I'm only mom who is frustrated with changes that motherhood brings.
  • Vanessa Van Petten · 8 months ago
    I do not think you are the only one! There are not many blogs we reviewed for new moms because we gear towards parents of 7-25 year-olds, but you are definitely not alone in that!

  • Andie Komatchia · 8 months ago
    I just have to tell you about a great inspirational website. My friend Janean writes - Memoirs of A New Me. She has found a way to remain hopeful when there are days when her hope should be gone. Her oldest son was injured in an accident and is now has a severe brain injury. A few months later her husband was in a roll over collision and nearly lost his arm 2 days before their 20 year wedding anniversary. As a result they became homeless a few months later. She has 4 boys total 18, 13, 5 and 4. The 5 year old is autistic. Somewhere she lost her self and she takes us on her journey to rediscover herself.
  • Vanessa Van Petten · 7 months ago
    thanks for sharing that, I am so glad you like the website!

  • Theresa Walsh Giarrusso · 7 months ago
    Hey Guys - I am new to your site and am excited about checking out all these wonderful parenting blogs. I am bookmarking the page right now. What a great resource. We have a nice parenting community in Atlanta on a blog called MOMania. (blogs.ajc.com/momania) It's a nice mix of parents -- some with older kids who can advise the newer moms. We discuss a lot of parenting dilemmas such "Do you alert the school when your child has lice or pin worms?" or "Sex Ed for teens more effective via texting?" But also have offering such as Top 10 cheap to free gifts for Mother's Day.
  • Vanessa Van Petten · 7 months ago

  • Stacie · 7 months ago
    Thank you so much for this resource. I'm new to blogging and reading blogs. This will take some time to work through, but I am looking forward to it.
  • Emily-TheMotherhood · 7 months ago
    What a fantastic list! I love love love so many of the blogs here and found some new ones to check out too!!!!!!!! Vanessa, I hope you'll check out TheMotherhood too (www.themotherhood.com). There's an incredible group of moms and great conversation happening. I'll submit info on your "Be on our blog" page too, but since TheMotherhood is a community and blog platform, I thought I'd tell you about it here too!!! Thanks!!!!
  • Laurie · 6 months ago
    This is such a great list. I'm such a fan of so many of these incredible women as well. I find blogging to be so empowering for women. The connections we make, the validation we feel, and the inspiration we receive from each other is so imporant.
  • Vinatha · 6 months ago
    Thanks for this extensive list of blogs. Makes me feel secure knowing that there are like-minded mom's who are not averse to putting thoughts on paper...er...or in this case...online.
  • Brenndon · 6 months ago
    I was very surprised that parentingBYdummies.com was not on your list of most popular. I have been reading her and OMG, this is a consistently great blogger.
    How did you miss her?
  • Hollie · 5 months ago

    Hi, I'm a newbie, running a website; http://www.inspiredmum.com. As a fulltime mum, I find it necessary to share the news, ideas with those of the same interests. At least, to release some of the gas inside the mind..Since I don't have office colleagues to share with, the best option is of course thru the blog, with the group of the same interests. Hope I can be accepted in a team and probably we can share the stories among us.
  • fcahya · 5 months ago
    OMG! Thanks a bunch for the very great list. I've been building a blog about toddler and toys for about 1 year but I never know there is a such wonderful list. Good job, Vanessa!
    I do hope you don't mind checking out my blog www.toddler-gift.blogspot.com. There are many tips about choosing the right educational toys and activities for toddlers and lots of my personal reviews about toddler gifts. Thanks!
