Description

This week I sat down with Jaimie Kelton, host of The Queer Family Podcast, and she shared her personal journey through infertility as a queer woman. We discussed the complexities of family building, the importance of community support, and the unique challenges faced by queer couples. We chatted about her process of selecting a sperm donor, the significance of representation, and the legal hurdles that often accompany queer family building that I hadn’t even thought of for my LGBTG+ clients. Jamie emphasizes the need for open conversations about donor conception with children and offers valuable advice for queer couples navigating their own paths to parenthood.
