We’re going to introduce you to some famous TikTok moms, all sharing their experiences of motherhood.

Let’s dive in.

It's a great idea for tips, hacks, and a nice way to boost another mama's social media presence.

But as much as we love TikTok, it can be a daunting place.

That's why we started Peanut — it's a safe place, the social media just for women.

But if you still want to keep scrolling through your FYP, check out these TikTok moms and throw them a follow, if you like!

1. Who is the Life360 mom on TikTok?

She’s called Samantha Howsden, and she’s known as the “Mom of TikTok.”

Her video criticizing the Life360 app for invading teenagers’ privacy went viral in 2019.

And after discussing her concerns, the company’s CEO made a number of changes to the app.

It’s a great example of the power of social media.

Today, Samantha has 2.9 million followers on TikTok.

One of our faves is Laura’s chaotic take on making macaroni cheese.

How much can I make off TikTok?

Fancy following in the footsteps of these TikTok moms?

If you build up a large following, it’s possible to make money from TikTok.

Just how much is difficult to say, although some online calculators can be used to estimate your influencer earnings.

It’s not easy money, though.

To get to the same point as the mothers on this list, you need to be posting a lot — several times a day.

And you need lots of people to engage with your content.

Who is the lady on TikTok?

Before we end off, here’s some interesting TikTok trivia.

In 2020, the platform released a “text to speech” feature.

The only problem was that the woman whose voice they used didn’t know anything about it.

Her name was Beverley Standing, and she is a voice actress from Canada.

She’d recorded 10,000 sentences for the Chinese Institute of Acoustics for use in translation.

And TikTok used them without her permission.

Beverley sued the platform, who at first responded by removing her voice.

But that led to a huge backlash from users and the creation of the hashtag #StandingWithBev.

In the end, TikTok settled the lawsuit for an undisclosed sum.

TikTok can be a great way to find other mamas and share their experiences of motherhood and more.

And why not check out our community here at Peanut too?

It’s a safe space to find advice, share your thoughts, and make friends.

Really bothered by this

A friend posted this and it really bothers me because that is exactly how she parents her kid, and it's rather unfortunate because when our kids hang out together, her kid has a meltdown at least 5x within an hour. We have know them for years and it's only gotten worse. My kids will concede to hers, because they don't want to see their friend crying, but it sucks because they give up so much of their toys and enjoyment to keep the peace. We aren't hanging out as much anymore but it's rather sad to think she doesn't intervene more in her child tantrums and just let's it slide

Is this normal

Let’s say you’re at a softplay with your 2 year old, and some friends & their toddlers.
You buy your 2 year old a kids meal - chicken nuggets, beans, and chips. They’re very happy with it and have almost eaten it all.
They’re sat at the table, fork in hand, consistently eating, and have one chicken nugget left.
Your adult friend comes over from behind you, picks up the last chicken nugget, and eats it.
There was no indication that your child wasn’t going to eat it, and they didn’t ask. They just took it with no warning and ate it right in front of you and your toddler.
How you reacting?

Are these men ok?

I get so sad seeing all the posts on here daily about women dealing with partners who are treating them horribly. I know it seems over represented because those of us with great partners don’t need to write posts asking for help, but I really hope most of us don’t have these kinds of men in our lives!

I tell my husband about these posts I see sometimes and he’s even shocked by some of the things these guys say/do.

Nobody’s perfect, and every relationship takes work. And becoming parents is a stress test unlike any other for sure, but seeing how many women get stuck in these relationships with men who aren’t interested in being better is so so sad😞

But is/was your partner helpful, loving, and supportive during your pregnancy/PP/etc? Was he a wonderful person but changed for the worst after becoming a parent? Has he put effort into becoming the partner you need him to be, even if he struggles?

Car issues

Idk if I’m in the wrong. I have a full time job. My husband takes care of the kids while I worked. Today was the day I was supposed to get us a car. But I couldn’t cause of the down payment. So now he’s texting me saying I’m wasting his day to be alone at Walmart so he can spend his tax return. I really want to say go ahead. Leave. Leave the kids and me alone. While you go out and spend money. While your at go ahead and buy urself your drugs and a bitch to go fuck.

Lucky I’m even thinking about him about the car situation if not I would’ve been buying me and the kids a car small enough for us!
