311: Mama Pair with Two Mommies and A Baby

Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) are joined by Nyesha and Samantha Davis-Williams, (@twomommiesandababy) to talk about starting a family as queer women. We talk about the unique challenges of conceiving as two queer women, deciding if you want to get a known or unknown donor or if you want to consider adoption and all of the things that they wish they knew before they went on their journey as queer parents. The duo are very passionate about representing for the LGBTQ community which led them to become first-time authors with their children's book titled Umi & Uma: The Story of Two Mommies and a Baby. The two pridefully represent women of color within the LGBTQ community, and was the first married same-sex couple of color who participated and won HGTV's hit game show Flea Market Flip. Get their children's book, Umi & Uma, here: https://amzn.to/2T7Qwo1 .
