Double Pregnant: Two Lesbians Make a Family
Autor Natalie Meisneren Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mar 2014
Girl meets girl. Girl marries girl. They want to have babies…but they need a little help.
Double Pregnant is author Natalie Meisner’s light-hearted, poignant and informative true story about starting a family with her wife Viviën. Because Viviën is a woman of colour who was adopted into a white family, the couple wants their children to have a connection to their donor and decide against taking the anonymous, sperm clinic route. But they realize they are going to need some help. Taking matters into their own hands leads the couple to a series of often-hilarious “dates” with potential donors, all of whom have wildly different opinions on how the donation process should go, and how Natalie and Viviën should proceed as a new family.

Recenzii
“Meisner’s book is, above all, a love story, and a close-to-the-bone account of one couple’s hopeful and ultimately rewarding journey to parenthood.”
“A touching and amusing love story about two women, two babies and one happy family.”
“Reading about Meisner’s struggles to not just get pregnant, but to get pregnant at the same time as her wife, was a tad surreal and very rewarding.”
“…an honest recollection of the journey [Natalie and her wife] embarked upon while being pregnant at the same time.”
“This story implemented so firmly in my mind I completely missed my stop on the train ride home. I want everyone I know to go and see this play. I want it to be performed in schools. It does such a lovely job of conveying a reality that many are oblivious to: that lesbian and gay couples are just as destined to raise families as anyone else is. They just might have to jump a few hilarious, and horrendous, hurdles to get there.”
“Passionate and engaging account of a lesbian couple’s struggle to have a family. The book is not about sexuality or gender identity; it’s about love.”
“What an accomplishment, to have written a page turner on a subject like this that is both moving and very funny.”
“This book is so full of life and love, of effort and desire and the determination of two extraordinary women devoted to each other and to having a family. Their journey is both delightfully humorous and at times heartrendingly desperate, but they had the courage to solve the riddle, and in the process, they created enchantment.”
