The Ultimate Guide to Pregnancy for Lesbians - How to Stay Sane and Care for Yourself from Pre-Conception Through Birth (Paperback, 2 Rev Ed)

"The Ultimate Guide to Pregnancy for Lesbians" covers everything you need to make the thrilling and challenging journey to motherhood: from choosing a donor to tracking fertility to signing the right papers on the dotted lines. Rachel Pepper's lively, easy-to-read guide is the first place to go for up-to-date information and sage advice on everything from sex in the sixth month to negotiating family roles.
Why a second edition? When the acclaimed first edition appeared, the author's daughter was only a few months old. This new edition takes into account the parenting know-how Pepper has developed over the intervening six years, as well as the evolving legal status of lesbian parents, and the increasing importance of the Internet for information on fertility, sperm banks, and donors. The resource section is greatly expanded, as are the sections on each trimester of pregnancy, on childbirth, and on life with a newborn. And Pepper provides more insight into preconception planning for both single lesbians and couples. An indispensable resource, "The Ultimate Guide to Pregnancy for Lesbians" is now bigger and better.

Any lesbian "Mom to be" should read this book! Rachel Pepper talks to you as though she is sitting in your living room. Her insight and knowledge on the journey is astonishing. A must-read for any couple planning to conceive. We are currently pregnant with twins and used only this book as guidance!
