    I would love to see a catagory for single queer mama’s by choice or design.

    I like that idea Bleu – I’ll put it in sometime soon. Any more single queer mommies out there?

    Thanks.

    I have so enjoyed the blogs I’ve found linked from your site. I was looking for info on how to add my own site – is that possible? My DP gave birth last Oct, and I am due in June, so we are mostly in the Babies! section. Thanks.

    I just found this site and have been checking out the blogs and can’t wait to read more. I am always looking for other families like ours to connect with, read about, etc., and am so thankful that this site exists to make my searching easier.

    Any chance of starting a her-eggs-my-body category? That’s where we’d be with our 18 month old twins.

    Thanks!

    Hi!

    I’ve just discovered you all from what seems like far, distant Adelaide, Australia. I’d like to add my blog:
    http://www.familyvalues.katalyst.com.au
    in the categories of TTC and little kids.
    I’m also writing lots on the cross platform documentary I’m making about the whole journey… and the blog is hosting a series of 2-3 digi-docs made by local rainbow family members about there families… check it out!

    Hi N. I just added you. So I s’pose that’s how you get on! Post a comment, wait for a friendly LesFam gal to list your blog!

    We would love to be added to the list. My partner and I are currently expecting but should be delivering within the next month. Thanks in advance.

    I’d love to be added…I guess to little kids (gasp!). I’m writing about parenting a gender-norm pushing boy and what that means, especially given the fact that he has queer moms.

  17. Erica says:
    May 13th, 2008 at 9:54 am

    Wow – I love seeing all these stunning lesbian families! Please add our blog to your list: http://www.parentingbeyond.com.

    We have two beautiful little kids, and my question is – how do you know when to stop? When the car won’t hold any more carseats??

    Peace,
    Erica

    Hi,

    I am so excited to find this list! Can you add me to your site please?

    I fit in the little kids section. I would love to see a category for lesbian stay at home moms!

    Thanks for getting all of us together!

    I’m a single queer mama, and a foster mom, and a surrogate mom, so I’d love if you would add me under any or all of those categories.

    Would love to be added your blog roll. We would fit under “little kids”. Also – I am preggars with twins and will start posting about that journey soon. So maybe under “expecting” and “babies”, too?

    Thanks!

    Any chance we could get a section for separated/co-parenting folks? It’s really quite a different situation.

    I checked under the single parenting section, but just got depressed when I saw that the people there were all pregnant (or some variation thereof). It’s especially tough when that is part of what destroyed your relationship–the whole infertility, aging out, who gets pregnant first, thing.

    It’d be great to have a place of our own.

    In the meantime, I’ll surf around.

    Oh! One more thing!

    Are blogs from lesbian moms that are not about parenting (or lesbianing) in particular also welcome on ths site? Or does that need to be what your blog is about?

  27. Polly says:
    March 31st, 2009 at 12:15 am

    Hi reinzig! My sense is that the core mission of the site is to enable lesbians who are trying to find others writing about their family-making and family-rearing experiences. That said, here’s what Liza wrote in the About page:

    Although LesbianFamily.org is primarily for and about lesbian parents, it’s a “big tent” web site. If you are a gay dad, have a lesbian parent in your extended family, or just want to show your support for lesbian families, we’d be happy to list your blog here too. Email and tell us what category you’d like to be listed in, and unless we find a compelling reason not to list you, we will.

    So my sense is, if you can find a page that seems to make sense for a blog to be listed, then by all means propose it! The Friends of the Family page has several blogs that are lesbian-created content but not about parenting. So maybe there? Any other LesFam editorial team folks want to weigh in?

  28. Polly says:

    As a “big tent” site, I can’t see why the tent couldn’t get bigger. Either we expand the scope of one of the exisiting pages (Single/Separated/Co-parenting?) or make another page. I’m sure the main thing would be to make it easier for folks to find one another, and so it’s just a question of whether more pages would make it harder (after a point it clutters?) or easier. But stay tuned. I’ll query the other LesFam editorial group gals.

    Meanwhile I’ll park your link in the most recent site update post!

    Hi,

    Can you please move our blog (creating a miracle) from TTC to expecting? Thanks! :)

    [...] Villarosa also notes the blogs Mombian, The Other Mother, and Suburban Lesbian Housewife as venues that “offer seasoned advice and insight for lesbian mothers.” And there’s plenty more up that alley: by now you all must know that LesbianFamily.org is the lesbo parent water cooler to end all lesbo parent water coolers. If you want to find a kindred spirit online, you’re sure to find her sidled up to the spigot over there. [...]

    [...] There is no empirical evidence that supports the claim that gay or lesbian parents disadvantage their offspring (Alexander, 2001; Dahir, n.d.; Ryan, Pealmutter, & Groza, 2004). The American Psychological Association (1995) goes as far as to state that the home environments provided by gay and lesbian parents are “as likely as those provided by heterosexual parents to enable and support children’s psychological growth” (as cited in Alexander, 2001). Additionally, children are resilient and although children of gays and lesbians must contend with unique circumstances and homophobia, this does not influence their social or emotional development (Alexander, 2001). The key is that the children are provided with a loving, safe, and consistent environment. For real life stories and proof of positive parenting and loving families, check out Mombian or any of the families listed under Lesbian Family’s blogroll! [...]
