to not understand mum blogging

I can understand why people do it, they have something to do, feel busy and hopefully get advertorials or some sort of money

Its the readers, why would you read a blog written by a bog standard Mum? isn't there anything better to read?

about life as a working Mum of 2 crazee kids, my commute and LIDL versus Waitrose, and some nicked recipes

I means that's boring right? Confused

I get why some people wouldn't want to read them for sure! But I like feeling I can relate to someone going through the same as me, am not a weirdo for not bouncing back into size 8, not being a perfect mum with a perfectly behaved little poppet etc... its comforting. Also like picking up tips on easy to do activities at home with toddlers for rainy days x

How many subscribers does a vlogger need before they start making money? I follow a few who have left their jobs and do it as their full time job but how on earth does it make them any lonely? I only watch them because I'm so nosey but it's like getting hold of someone's home video with some low rent editing on top...I find some of them cringeworthy but that's what makes them so watchable if that makes sense!!

When hear someone describe themselves as a "mummy blogger" I internally roll my eyes!

Honestly, they write as if they are the first woman in the world to become a mum. And what's more, they are so arrogant that they actually think people want to read their drivel.
