If you are a lesbian, queer, gender non-conforming, or FTM transgender parent,
Send me your birth story!
What’s this all about?
There are vast collections of birth stories written by heterosexual folks. It is time for your stories to be heard & recorded as a part of our queer history. I am asking you to share your story with me because I am passionate about your story of the day you welcomed your child to the world being heard, in your own words. Send me your story whether you were the parent who gave birth or the co-parent who supported your partner when your baby was born.
I am not certain about the direction this collection will take & I will respond to your e-mailed story to ask permission before posting/publishing it.
Who’s asking?
Hi. I’m Kristen. I’m a queer feminist birth doula and childbirth educator in Chicago. I am passionate about the power of queer voices in pregnancy & birth culture. You can learn more about me at www.kaleidoscopedoula.com
Where do I send my story?
All submissions can be e-mailed to kaleidoscopedoula@gmail.com
Peace 
Kristen
