She discusses her experience growing up with queer moms, her own journey of becoming a parent, and the importance of open communication and honesty in donor-conceived families. Freya emphasizes the significance of answering the questions of donor-conceived children and providing them with the option to connect with their donors or half-siblings.

| S14 EP3 | Nat Vikitsreth is a licensed clinical psychotherapist and child development specialist, and host of the Come Back to Care Podcast. She shares her personal journey, growing up in Bangkok, Thailand, and embracing her identity as a trans woman. Nat's work goes beyond therapy; she offers vital support to the queer community by being the "trans auntie of the village, loving up on other parents, especially queer parents." She discusses the importance of self-awareness and being present with our children. Her message reminds parents (especially Jaimie

The Queer Family Podcast | S13 EP12 | Ed Center is a husband and father who humorously quips that, as two Filipino men, he and his husband defied convention in their journey to parenthood by adopting two wonderful white children. After their eldest child faced a profound mental health challenge during the pandemic, Ed embraced a more inclusive and mindful approach to parenting and learned better ways to support his children. Inspired by his learnings, Ed founded Village Well Parenting, whose mission is to empower and enlighten parents like himself, providing them with the tools and support they need to build strong and resilient families. "Doing the inner work and addressing one's own wounds and triggers is crucial for effective parenting." Ed Center "Queer parents often have a unique perspective and approach to parenting that can be valuable in creating a supportive and inclusive environment for their children."

It's good advice for any pediatric provider to never assume anything.  In the sixth episode of the series on Health Equity in Children, we understand how not making assumptions is a best practice for pediatric providers from the evaluation and management of LGBTQ patients, to communicating with diverse families, and serving as an ally in health promotion.   Want to make a bigger difference in health equity?

There's a shortage of Black sperm donors and this especially hurts Black lesbian and queer couples. Black sperm makes up between 3% and 5% of what's available at cryobanks. This comes as the majority of cryobank customers are lesbian or queer. This shortage causes some people to look for sperm elsewhere, including Facebook. This episode we learn why this shortage is so severe, the legal issues that may arise when using a sperm donor on social media, and why so few Black people donate sperm.

Kids get asked all sorts of random questions by their peers. For Julia, it was a question of how she could possibly have two moms, or how they gave birth to a child. For Cathy's daughter, Jackie, she was the one who had the questions: she understood having two moms but didn't quite understand how a man and a woman could produce a child. In this lighthearted, funny and moving episode, Alex and Phil listen to Julia's and Cathy's stories and discuss the burden of handling invasive questions and the innate emotional intelligence of children.

Join us as we talk with postpartum doula and trainer Rachel Hess, about how queer parents can empower themselves as they encounter care providers (and other parents) as well as how those who aren't part of the queer community can help to stop oppressive actions and comments during the perinatal period. Rachel has virtual support groups for queer parents and you can learn more about those at http://www.rachelhessdoula.com

If you’re not in a committed, monogamous relationship, and you want to find someone to co-parent with — how do you even go about it? And how do you all make decisions that affect your child – the big ones and the small? We tell three stories of co-parenting without a blueprint. A woman who met her future co-parents through a website. A trans father who co-parents with his wife and ex. And someone who has set up a network of co-parents that is about as far from nuclear as you can get. - NHS – LGBT paths to parenthood https://www.nhs.uk/live-well/healthy-body/gay-health-having-children/ - And Baby Makes More: Known Donors, Queer Parents, and Our Unexpected Families by Susan Goldberg - Nick North – @epicdanger - BBC Actionline – LGBT https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/1nYWPTdMtKStFL2ztx1SV11/information-and-support-lgbt-issues Presented by Freddy McConnell Produced by Dasha Lisitsina Assistant Producer: Arlie Adlington Executive Producer: Russell Finch Sound Design: Phoebe Wang A Somethin’ Else Production for BBC Sounds

De meeste stellen die met eigen eicellen en zaadcellen een ivf-proces willen starten, mogen na de intake direct beginnen. Maar ben je transgender, gehandicapt of anderszins 'abnormaal', dan moet je in veel ziekenhuizen eerst in gesprek met een maatschappelijk werker. En gaat het gehele team vervolgens op grond van diens verslag beslissen of je wel ouder mag worden.Dit overkwam ook ons vorig jaar, in het eerste ziekenhuis waar wij in behandeling wilden. Aanvankelijk probeerden we dit onderwerp te vermijden in deze podcast, maar ondertussen willen we het toch graag aan jullie kwijt. Daarom - én omdat we ivf-pauze hebben en dus even niets anders te melden - volgen maar liefst twee afleveringen over deze gebeurtenis en over de discriminatiezaak die we ervan maakten.Meer informatie:Standpunt NVOG: ‘Geassisteerde voortplanting met gedoneerde gameten en gedoneerde embryo’s en draagmoederschap’. Zie pagina 58 voor het hoofdstuk over transgender wensouders.Overigens heeft de NVOG ook een document over mogelijke bezwaren bij gehandicapte en/of chronisch zieke ouders: 'Mogelijke morele contra-indicaties bij vruchtbaarheidsbehandelingen'. Zie hier pagina 6. Hierover praten we verder in de volgende aflevering.

Tamar en Sophie introduceren zichzelf en deze podcast. Ze vertellen dat ze als trans-cis lesbisch stel mogelijk een kindje kunnen krijgen dat genetisch van hen allebei is, hoe ze besloten dat Tamars chronische ziekte hun kinderwens niet in de weg hoeft te staan, en waar in het ivf-proces ze op dit moment zitten.Over een fertiliteitsarts die tussen je benen zit terwijl de eicellen al aan het springen zijn en waarom het belangrijk is om 'het te laten hangen'.Bear with us, het duurt even voordat we vertellen waar de podcast over gaat, maar we komen er wel en dan wordt het interessant!PS Deze podcast publiceren we met vier a vijf weken vertraging, dus we liepen een beetje achter op het nieuws. Ondertussen weten we natuurlijk dat KID bij lesbische stellen wél vergoed blijft.PPS We zijn dol op post! Stuur ons een mail - tamarensophie at gmail.com - of spreek via Instagram een voice message in. Deze lezen en beluisteren we al in aflevering 2! Niet met vier of vijf weken vertraging dus, ook al zeiden we dat in de aflevering zelf wel.

We as Two Mommies and a Baby always get bombarded with questions we didn't think would come about. Why are people asking us "are you going to raise your child gay"? We address questions that people believe it's okay to address while we're having a casual conversation. While we're open about our life, boundaries are important!    Sponsored by Umi & Uma: The Story of Two Mommies and a Baby www.Twomommiesandababy.com Email: Contact@twomommiesandababy.com Instagram: @twomommiesandababy Facebook Page: Two Mommies and a Baby  

Kate got a new pregnancy pillow and the only ones who love it more than she does are the dogs. Kate and Karyne’s friend sent them some hemorrhoid pads and other must-have post-pregnancy items, and they now have a place to put everything because they organized the garage! But the most important news of all is that the baby’s due date is on Beyonce’s birthday. You’re welcome, little Levy.

Follow along every Tuesday as Kate and Karyne navigate reciprocal IVF using Karyne's eggs, unknown donor sperm, and Kate's uterus.
