Lesbian Mom's Web Page

The The Lesbian Mom's Web Page is a valuable place on the Internet for women, especially lesbians, who want to have babies through non-traditional means. It is a source for "wisdom and life experiences of other lesbian moms," "mom wannabees," and "moms of the young and old alike." It includes, among other things, a list of lesbian-friendly doctors and sperm banks in the United States (state by state) and Europe; a discussion about choosing donor methods (known vs. anonymous donors) and the advantages and disadvantages of each; and detailed information on useful tools and methods for insemination. The site also includes a list of common abbreviations and terms used when discussing alternative insemination, a list of health and dietary factors during pregnancy, and discussions of insurance, unique concerns for lesbian families, the adoption option, and legal issues surrounding artificial insemination. Finally, this excellent site provides a supplemental list of agencies, books, and periodicals that can help GLBTs start their own families.
