In my daily life, I get to help queers get pregnant and birth babies. It’s pretty amazing.
From this work, I’ve decided to start this blog to tell the stories of how queers create families.
Queer conception is confusing, there’s no roadmap for us and the health systems that exist aren’t designed for our needs.
But our community is resilient, and through telling our experience are showing others how to make babies and queer the path to parenthood.
This blog are the stories of our community. If you would like to tell yours, email me at midwife@refugemidwifery.com with the story you would like posted and any details, resources, or pictures you would like to share.
If you’re in the Philly area, I host a list serve and potluck for LBGTQ folks who are trying to conceive, pregnant, or have new babies. Email me to join.
