Welcome to our Expedition:
One Latina lesbian meets another, years pass and they level-up with marriage. Then decide to approach the venture of creating a family. We talk about our experiences in this process: the challenges of ethnicity, age, sexuality, the futuristic tech of IUI & IVF and the people we meet along the way. With good humor+honesty.
Whether we make it or not, we invite you to join us.
From a sarcastic and potentially more than mildly entertaining vantage point.
A “journey” is blah…an expedition? I’d take it any day.
