I only read the Mamapedia blog topics like once every few weeks. How about all of you? I prefer to get right to the Q & A and rarely notice that the site even has the blogs.

What can I do next?

Not much.
I don't have the patience to read those.
I am the type that jumps around as I read.
Skimming.
then on to other things.

I don't get into blogs much.
Just Q&A

I havent read any that are advertised here,, never really looked at them, but one M. in her comment included her blog address and I went and read it. It was great, I loved her style and was anxious to read more, but, Ive never seen her name again and dont remember it now. too bad. I like reading other peoples stories, and thoughts. They make me smile.

I have read a dozen or so.....and even left comments as I am so used to doing here....but the comment showed up on my FB account which I rarely go to, but so many others noticed my comments...so now I know to disengage the FB icon...live and learn.

There are truly some gifted writers who have fascinating takes on motherhood....some not so. One blog was about a FT working mom who pumped milk in bizarre places while traveling, like closets...and I was so saddened by the story...she wrote it to be funny....but I did not see the humor in a new mommy traveling away from her baby and pumping in filthy setting to appease American corporate greed. What is happening to our society that mom's can't stay home the first year of an infant's life, like almost all other European countries? We have got to start prioritizing our families and little ones over work the important first few years.

I skim them when they are at the top of the daily email, sometimes. I think I have only ever read one or two and mostly just don't pay attention to them. Why doesn't Mamapedia invite members to write stories or blogs??? That would be interesting so hear what some of the mom's on here have to say about a particular topic or if they have a good story to write.

I read some of the blogs - depending on the topic - and I blog myself...
My blog is about my life -- not about motherhood, per se... I write about what is going on here at home. The original reason I started blogging was that I didn't want to write a Christmas letter. :-)

I think I've read only 3 or 4 of the blogs since they started being posted. They take more time to read than I'm willing to devote, since I only intend to quickly scroll through the Q&A's and read those that capture my interest, if any.
