This is the first blog that I was very interested in: http://thenaughtymommy.blogspot.com/
The blogger is "The Naughty Mommy". As can be guessed by the name, this woman is a very unconventional writer. She is basically a mommy sex columnist. Her writing is explicit and gutsy, which is what attracted me to it in the first place. She does not just write about sex though... she writes about her identity now as a mother and her nostalgia for the freedom of the past. She compares a lot from pre-baby to post-baby. Her personality seems to be very free-spirited and she is very honest with even the negative things. Her feelings about her daughter are surprising contrasts to her stories about sex with her husband. The only reason why I didn't just pick this blog was because I think I only have access to about 9 entries, and I'm not even sure if this is an official blog. She has also come out with a book recently called Love in the Time of Colic: The New Parent's Guide to Getting it on Again.
The second blogger is "Her Bad Mother"
This is a woman living in Canada. The blogs that I have read are about her life as a mother and how she is confused by her feelings about motherhood. She loves her children but hates the work that comes with raising kids. She never regrets any of it, but questions whether or not she would ever have one again. (The answer is most likely no). She also questions other women about how they feel when they were put in similar situations. Her writing is comedic and light but expresses the concerns and emotions that I believe most mothers have. She also has a nephew who was diagnosed with Duchenne's Muscular Dystrophy. He is expected to die young. Her Bad Mother also uses her blog, which has a lot of commentors for almost every entry, to promote for a fund raiser that her sister wants to donate to Duchenne's research.
