Ya know, I expected something completely different when I started to read this. LOL

Speaking as a mother of 2 when she realized that she was lesbian — it’s kinda hard b/c you start out as friends so they KNOW your kid(s) before the intimacy — at least that’s how it happened for me.

Just don’t go movin’ people in right away and everything’ll be just fine

Good luck!

I second that piece of beautiful advice!

To be honest, I never dated a girl/woman with kids…and I never thought about it. I’d go with Tina-cious.com though…read her current post, she’s got kids, and a rockin’ sex life…something is going right for her.

You might want to read Louise Sloan’s Knock Yourself Up, a book for women who become single moms by choice. Much of the book is devoted to making the decision to become a parent and choosing a method (known/unknown donor, adoption), but she also gets into life as a single mom, including basic daily coping, finding a support network, and dating. The book is for a mixed lesbian/bi/straight audience, but Sloan herself is a lesbian, so it’s very inclusive.

Probably your son or daughter is a bit older now and perhaps all your doubts are gone and you are a happy lesbian mother as I am. Love Marize

Very well wrote. I may use something from your article. not like many others wrote just to be.It’s hard to be a single mom, and advices are allways welcome.Thanks!

This is a fantastic, It is glad to see this blog, nice informative blog, Thanks for share this article.

This is a great blog, thanks for sharing it, I have been feeling like the only single, pregnant lesbian alive. Four months into the pregnancy now and I am looking forward to motherhood. I would be lying though if I said that I am not still in a little disbelief that its happening! Of course after years of the subject of children with my female partners being probably the most drawn out and politically messed subject for all the reasons that I’m sure you are aware of…just which method do you choose?, which woman will carry, is there money involved, how much? when? and becoming a parent being something I have wanted so dearly but years passing being nowhere near it, I was at the point where I had accepted that it would never happen so this is a bit surreal to me. I became pregnant the old fashioned way and I was in a relationship with the man, it didn’t work out, I’m as gay as the day is long and it was a flawed idea that i could be with him but this is still a blessing. I have no clue how a single mum manages to date though, I have thought about the dynamics of it and of course that was the first and last attempt to date a man! in all honesty and as pathetic as it sounds, where dating is concerned I have been telling myself those days are probably over at least for a long time but I hope that I discover that its not that way. Thank lord for easily accessed information!

And then I read the blogs in the Dating category!.. :-p

I am going through the same thing. I am only 21 and recently found out I was pregnant. All though shocked its a miracle, and I couldnt be happier. I have Multiple Sclerosis, and I want to be able to walk and play with my children. Each year that chance gets lesser and lesser for me. Thankfully financially I am stable for it, but anyways I would love to know how things are going for you?!

I don’t think pregnancy or having children would impair your dating life. I previously would not consider dating women with children, but I recently met a woman who is pregnant and single, and I’m deeply intrigued by her. As for the no children thing, well it’s out of the window. The world and its people are constantly changing; you’re not until you are and que sera sera. Good luck for all of you out there.

I am going through a similiar situation myself. After my 4 year relationship with my ex girlfriend ended abruptly, I went out a lot to cure my heartbreak and ended up sleeping with a guy friend after too much to drink one night and then found out I was pregnant! I moved back to my hometown and fell in love with an amazing woman. The pregnancy has been an odd thing for the both of us because we have no idea how it will be and it does make things a little bit awkward in the intimacy department but she’s willing to try to make this is a wonderful relationship plus a baby! None of my GLBT friends have children so I don’t really have anyone to talk to about this and I would love to hear more about how having a baby changes the dynamics of a lesbian relationship!
