Who gets to breastfeed? Lesbians and their son

Wednesday, June 20th, 2007

Two Moms from The Story in North Carolina Catherine and Kathleen McAuley are expecting a baby boy next week. They’ve been together for 6 years; about 9 months ago, Catherine got pregnant through artificial insemination. Both moms are joyous, but the most typical reaction they encounter in other people is confusion: “How did you decide which one of you would get pregnant?” or “How will you explain the gay thing to your kid?”

Catherine and Kathleen talk to Dick Gordon about sharing the pregnancy and figuring out how to talk to other people about it.
