Seattle Mom Blogs

Maybe the number is 25, maybe it’s 40, but whatever the age is, the birth of a child marks the beginning of a new chapter in a parents’ life. It’s a demographic transition marked by numerous changes: parenting books, diaper duty, and of course the wagon-ization of what might have formerly been a sports car.

It wasn’t until the birth of my cousin, Remy, last month that I had seen this transformation first hand. All of a sudden, my cousin, Becky, in the panic of early motherhood, became full of questions.

• What do I do about medical insurance?
• How do I make sure Remy is getting the right things to eat?
• How will I find the best schools for him to go to?

Her list of questions went on, which got me thinking: where would a first time Mom go to have these questions answered? It didn’t take much poking around for me to realize that there are a number of great parenting resources here in Seattle.

In addition to local organizations such as Parent Map and Red Tricycle, Seattle Moms have somewhat of a one-stop-shop in SeattleMomBlogs.com.

Seattle Mom Blogs is much more than an amalgamation of blogs written by local Moms. It is a community where Moms share stories, ideas, and lend thoughtful, educated advice to one another. It’s a place where local Moms engage in open dialogues with one another and share common experiences.

In the creation of Seattle Mom Blogs, founding Mom bloggers, Jenny, Eve, and Kathryn succeeded in creating a diverse network of members which includes Ph. D’s, scientists, web developers, and full time Moms, just to name a few. And even though the Mom bloggers blog about Mom issues a lot, they also have a wide array of personal interests they blog about, too. Some of their most common interests are reading, cooking, and traveling, but you’ll also find scrapbookers and fashion professionals among them.

So if you’re a first time Seattle Mom, a veteran Mom, or just someone interested in sharing common interests, Seattle Mom Blog is a great local community to get involved with.
