When Mommy blogs

CHECK out this article by Cathy S. Babao-Guballa, who writes about moms who blog. Excerpt:

There was a time in my recent past when I was so burnt out I thought I had lost the gift to write. Blogging has helped me find myself again.

My primary blog "Midlife Mysteries" (www.nancydrewandme.blogspot.com) talks a bout "everything warm, wise and wonderful about the life of a 40-something moth er, wife and writer," and I belong to several blog communities such as Christia n Women Online (w ww.christianwomenonline.net) and locally, the Pinoy Moms Network (www.pinoymomsnetwork.com). Blogging is a form of therapy. It is a way of processing one's inner thoughts a nd feelings and finding other like-minded individuals on the journey.

As a father it's also become a therapy for me--from stress among other things a
side from my objective of honing writing skills. I've been prodding my wife to
go into it but she's quite happy being the blog reader but she tried it one tim
e on our family blog. :)

The article was very interesting to read, i.e., finding out how other mothers t
ry to balance life and cope with their endless busy days by blogging.

Being a first - time mother has certainly brought some new albeit difficult cha
llenges for me.

Blogging has helped me to deal with these challenges better because writing abo
ut my experiences helps me to release all those mixed emotions: happiness over
the miracle of having a baby, frustration over not knowing everything about bei
ng a parent and fears of not being a "good mother."

In a way, I guess, blogging has helped keep me sane.

Through blogging, I've also connected with other "experienced mothers" from who
m I pick up valuable insights and advice that make motherhood a bit easier.

:)

I am not a mother, but I agree that Blogging can be a therapy. Happened to me t
oo!

This is great! I agree that blogging can be therapy. It's great to get ideas an
d advice from other blogs and support on your own blog.

After having our personal baby blog for over two years, we decided to start a n
ew one that's more of a community for mom and dad bloggers - www.babyblogaddic
t.com. It's been so much fun to be able to share great resources and watch othe
rs use the site as a resource too.

For some reason the link didn't work. I'm still learning. Here it is again:

Yeah, blogging is a way of finding time for ourselves..a sort of an outlet to o
ur daily routine..

I have a website and I blog, but it's frustrating not to have any of my contem
poraries ( my classmates back in elementary, high school, or college) connectin
g with me. I wonder if there are any who are into email, let alone personal web
sites. Ohh, it's so lonely in cyberspace!

I have to say...the inquirerblogger is the first blog-site that I really find t
ime to participate...I only started yesterday hehehehe and its aleady starting
to get into my system. This morning when I woke up, the inq blog site was the f
irs thing I did...before it was inq.net and cnn on tv...great feeling to be abl
e to express your feelings here...

Am not a father yet by the way ;)
