Product Description
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.

Wonderful!
This is a wonderful book for any woman trying to conceive, and for those already pregnant. The author uses humor and real-life experiences to educate, making it easy to read and understand. Highly recommended for any lesbian who is considering getting preganant, as well as for her partner. (if there is one!)
