Rainbow Families

Catherine, Claire, Etta (10mths) Northcote, Victoria. Personally we noticed a total lack of representation and we could not find anybody that looked like our family, we went through our pregnancy under a veil of heteronormativity and every word, every congratulations came with a certain lack of truth. We both knew it was going to be hell and we wished that we could have been more open with everybody, it would have made our lives a lot easier. Despite this, the pregnancy and birth of our daughter was monumental, in the best way.
