Any other lesbian moms who came out after having kids? 😅
As the title suggests, I’m a mom who recently (finally) came out as a lesbian, but I feel like that’s not really a thing? Y’know? Like, I feel like when I start trying to date or even just talk to other gals, I’m scared they’ll think I’m not serious or something since I have two babies. Any other moms in the same boat? 😅 please tell me I’m not the only one 😭 what were y’all’s experiences?
I actually came out to my mom and my aunts some years ago, but I was still somewhat unsure of myself and went back to men… and after some traumatic experiences, one shitty living situation after another; being stuck in a deep depression/survival mode, and now being stuck with my BD (live together but only bc I’m basically stranded; no car, no money, no job until I can get the baby off my boob. And no, she won’t take a bottle, we’ve tried. She’d rather cry herself to sleep or not eat for up to six hours before she drank from a bottle. Be it boobie milk or formula or both. We’ve started her on solids, but so far she’s not a fan of any baby foods), I’ve finally accepted my sexuality; it made me finally accept the fact that I indeed do NOT want a cis man, nor do I ever want to live with one again.
Anyway, please tell me there’s hope for me in the future 😭🙏🏻

I know a lesbian couple where one of them was previously married to a cis man and had a kid with him. The couple have a second kid together (donor) and going strong.
Check out late bloomer lesbians on reddit. It is full of our people with some very encouraging stories about life after kids and marriage (obv a little different for you but still kinda the same)
I’m technically bi I suppose, but after being married for 10 years, divorce, etc I’ve been in a relationship with a woman for 5 years. I would still be married to man if the marriage hadn’t been abusive, but I don’t see myself ever dating men in the future at this point in my life. I think people and sexuality are somewhat fluid, and the only constant is change, so all you can do is be true to yourself.
Yep, my son was 6 when I realized I was gay, and my wife’s son was 24 when she fully came out. It’s definitely a thing, don’t worry. It’s actually extremely common.
Yeah, after the trauma of my divorce I fucking hate men
