LGBT+ Resources
Introduction
Materials for same sex parents on the subject of pregnancy and baby loss are limited and any contributions welcomed to help provide more help.
One of the biggest advocates in this area is Jess leading the way with her Legacy of Leo blog and the weekly Twitter chat #BabyLossHour every Tuesday on a different topic.
Leaflets
While not explicitly written for same sex couples this guide is written with them in mind.
Blogs
As part of her blog, Jess runs a series of guest blogs on LGBT baby loss experiences.
Online forums
"Welcome to the LGBT+ Bereaved Parents Community Facebook Group.
I’ve created this group to provide a way for parents to connect, signpost and benefit from peer-to-peer support.
[...]
Ever since Leo died, I’ve spoken openly about our experiences and have worked hard to raise awareness of the subtle but important differences that being gay can add to bereaved parents.
I see this group as an opportunity to connect those around the world who understand these layers to parenting and grief, and who wish to find others similar to them.
I hope for it to be as inclusive of experience as it is demographic."
