We're two moms who created a family through donor insemination. We love to talking about queer families, including issues related to non-bio-moms, bio-moms, switching uteri, and donor conception.

Gail and Lyn is a winner of Top 25 LGBT Parent Blogs

What are three distinctive features of your blog?

1. We write a lot about being a lesbian non-bio mom in a family where the other mom gives birth. Both of us have been there. It's kind of intense.
2. Gail successfully re-lactated for our second kid (that Lyn birthed) so that we could both nurse him, and we wrote about the experience in detail. If you're thinking about trying this, or just curious how it might work, check out our side bar for links.
3. Our kids were conceived via frozen sperm from a bank (like lots of kids in two-mom families). We write about how our understanding of donor conception has changed over the years and how we're approaching talking to our kids about their origins.
