Mothers in the past had to rely on advice from parents, family, friends and books as they did not have access to the internet. Being able to go online and read mom blogs provides a rich wealth of information and support for mothers that they never had before. Apart from all the practical tips that help one to be a more organized mommy, one can receive advice on parenting and share with others too.

There are so many mothers blogging today that choosing the right ones to follow can be confusing. Fortunately, there are directories and lists of bloggers available online. They often give short descriptions of what can be found on a specific blog, making it easy to eliminate some and only go to the ones that are likely to be most helpful. A site can then easily be bookmarked for future reference.

Advice on just about every parenting topic imaginable and every stage of parenting can be found. However, it is not just advice that mothers need. They also find comfort in seeing just how many other people are experiencing what they are and some write about their struggles in such humorous ways one cannot help but laugh. The kids may be ill and everything may seem to be going wrong but laughing about the ironies of motherhood gives one courage to face another day.

One of the benefits is the sense of community that may come about simply from following a blog. There is nothing quite like sharing with other mothers following the same blog. Mothers who are are feeling stressed and unable to cope may find that a specific blog gives them what they need to feel better and carry on. Sharing stories, photos and advice can be very helpful.

Parenting advice on issues such as bullying, bed wetting and much more can be found. A teenage mother may be able to relate to other teenage mothers online and feel much better about what she is going through as a result. A mother whose children have finally left home may find inspiration for what to do with her life now that she has time on her hands. Pregnant mothers can find out about any issue bothering them such as the different ways to give birth or breastfeeding.

A mother who has a strict budget can find many helpful ways of saving money. Bloggers write about different products, giving reviews and they may even have giveaways as well. Mothers are made aware of cheaper products and discounts offered so they can source products that offer the best value for money.

Another source of inspiration for mothers is those bloggers writing about health and beauty. Mothers are usually so busy that they have little time for themselves. Many of these bloggers stress the importance of looking after oneself as a mother by exercising and eating correctly. Tips are also given on fashion and how to look great.

Whether one is wanting to be more organised, looking for advice on what to do about a child who is being bullied at school or simply wanting to find some child friendly recipes, there is more than enough material available. Sorting through it and bookmarking your favorite sites enables one to stay on top and function most effectively in the role of motherhood.
