Radical Parenting: A Queer Journey to Conception and Family Building

By Cristina Hernandez (She/Her)

My name is Cristina and I am a Queer Muxerista Latina mami of two amazing kiddos (Sofia and Joseph) who were donor conceived with my spouse Sy, a non-binary queer person! Though our journey began twelve years ago, luckily the world has changed in positive ways (i.e. more support and resources), though it has also become more challenging (i.e. anti-trans laws, abortion restrictions, etc.) in other ways. There is so much to consider as a queer parent. My hope is that you take what you need and leave the rest. Conceiving as a queer person can feel overwhelming, but there is support out there. WE are here to support YOU! You are not alone through this journey.

Queer conception and parenting is a radical act. My children are my resistance. Regardless of how our children come to us, it

is a radical act to parent as a queer person.
