Driven by the necessity of filling the void of LGBTQIA+ inclusion in the birth world, AJ Silver, founder of @thequeerbirthclub, has written this brilliantly informative book filled with stories and experiences of LGBTQIA+ parents as well as professionals in the field. 

Including interviews with @jake_graf5, @freddy.mcconnell and Sabia Wade @theblackdoula, and covering topics such as lactation and surrogacy, this crucial guide marks a step forward for inclusivity. A must-read for any healthcare professional.
