"The lesbian who is also a mother faces a unique oppression in this society. "-Womankind Nov. 1972

My name is Donelle and I am a proud lesbian mom. My partner and I are in our mid- twenties and our daughter is entering the terrible two's. We're from MA and have a moderate amount of family support but no real community. I created this site to serve as a place where other lesbian moms can share, discuss and learn. Even before our daughter was born, I longed to hear stories from other mother's. I can remember many nights laying awake from pregnancy induced heartburn, scouring the internet for emotional support from a more seasoned lesbian mom. I came out as a lesbian only a few years before I conceived and I needed to know,

​

"What is my family going to think?"

"Can I really be a good mom?"

"Will my baby be a well-adjusted human being?"

"How can I support my wife as a non bio mom?"

and a thousand other questions. 



I hope the information on this site is useful to you. Share and learn! I wish all of you good luck on your journey as mothers, women and lesbians.
