Hello, my partner & I have just become proud gay parents & our baby is now 1 week old. It would be great to meet up with parents with children of a similar age & meet up. Anyone out there?
Hi there.
Only just saw your posting & see its quite old. We are also in Amersham. Would you like to get in touch?
Take care for now

hi 'little wonders' - my email is donnabowers1@hotmail.co.uk. You should be able to email without using some bizarre code!!! Be great to hear from you. Don
Hi Don,
Lovely to hear from you:-)
How do we get in touch?.. I tried to contact you directly on this but it says you dont accept direct contacts unless you use 'c.a.m.' whatever that is!.
We are reluctant to post our direct email or contact details on here as we have had a few weirdos send us unpleasant things in the past.
Thanks for now

Hi everyone!,
We hope its ok to join and post to your group.
We are a gay couple whom have recently been feeling a little bit isolated and unsure since becoming new gay dads. Finding some genuine like minded parents/friends who live for their kids seems to be difficult.
Since completing our rather tortuous & sometimes impossible journey to acheive our long term dream of having our own genetic kids, we recently succeeded, and now have two beautiful boys - (whom we are both mum and dad to). Unlike many same sex female couples or single mums, we appear to have encountered a much more judgemental reaction from many sources, (many unexpected). So the last 3 years have effectively been in reclusion.
However, a friend happend to see this group and suggested it might be worthwhile to test our faith in human nature again and reach out. So we hope that there are indeed some other genuine people out there whom are like minded and also live for their kids.
We are not sure what to expect, so hope that we will all be pleasantly surprised.
We are both decent, law abiding, hard working dependable people, both of whom have formerly lived 'normal' heterosexual lives and have now been together for 20 monogamous years. We appreciate that not everyone agrees with our choices, but we intend to do all we can to try and ensure our kids have as balanced a life as possible. If we can find others in a similar position whom can understand and can share ideas and support, then it will be worthwhile.
In the meantime, sorry for writing 'War & Peace', but we hope the most worthwhile journeys start with the smallest of steps:-).
Take care for now and thanks for reading this.

Hi Macca and Indigomama
I'm also a Hackney gal. No baby as of yet as start TTC next month.
Hi Macca. I don't know if you still check the site but my partner and I have a son born in March 08. We live in Hackney - so pretty close- and we'd love to meet other gay parents in the area.

thanks lucifera, we will check out gingerbeer (I'm macca's partner, btw).
