Inclusive Support from the First Trimester Through Early Parenthood

An essential, inclusive pregnancy and postpartum guide for LGBTQ+ families The world needs a pregnancy guide for pregnant people who don’t fit into society’s traditional gender and relationship norms, one that reflects their full authenticity. Enter The LGBTQ+ Pregnancy and Postpartum Guide: Inclusive Support from the First Trimester Through Early Parenthood, the first-of-its-kind resource focused on the LGBTQ+ experience. Marea Goodman, queer midwife and founder of the PregnantTogether Community, combines evidence-based information with practical tools, tips, and real-life stories to support LGBTQ+ families during pregnancy and postpartum.

Beginning in the first trimester of pregnancy and ending in early parenthood, Goodman covers how to find affirming providers, important medical information for all pregnant people, reflection prompts, best practices, and essential advice for surviving and thriving the challenges of pregnancy and parenting in a society that doesn’t center LGBTQ+ people and families. Featuring the personal stories from LGBTQ+ parents who have gone through their own pregnancies and were generous enough to share their journeys, The LGBTQ+ Pregnancy and Postpartum Guide is essential for all pregnant people who don’t often see their experiences reflected in mainstream pregnancy resources. It’s a breath of fresh air for all pregnant people who are part of the LGBTQ+ community, offering consistent awareness of their unique family-building journey.
