In a time when to most people pregnancy automatically means motherhood, what is it like to get pregnant, give birth, and breastfeed a child all while being an out transgender man?When Trevor MacDonald decided to start a family, he knew that the world was going to have questions for him. As a transgender man in a gay relationship, Trevor has gone through the journeys of pregnancy, childbirth, and nursing all while exploring (and sometimes defending) his role as a trans dad. Trevor and his partner tackle all the questions new parents are familiar with (Should we feed our baby breast milk or formula? Should we have a hospital or home birth?) and others perhaps unfamiliar (How can a man cope with gender dysphoria when going through such femalecoded rituals as childbirth and breastfeeding? How can a person breastfeed after having had chest masculinization surgery? How do we find donor milk to supplement our own modest milk supply?).Luckily for the reader, Trevor explains his own answers to these questions with grace and humour. His stories convey the intimate and sometimes surprising realities of the transgender parenting experience. This memoir is a book about being a breastfeeding parent and a transgender man, and the many beautiful, moving, and difficult ways these two identities collide. Wheres the Mother? is a memoir like no other.

While I enjoyed the anecdotes in this book, I felt some stories lacked depth. It was nice to read about the author’s journey, but I wanted more elaboration on certain experiences. Still, it's worth a read for the unique viewpoint!

A heartfelt collection of stories
I picked up 'Stories from a Transgender Dad' and found it really touching. The author's perspective on parenthood is relatable, and it’s a refreshing take on family life. It's a great read for anyone looking to understand diverse experiences in parenting.

Inspiring and eye-opening!
This book was such an eye-opener! 'Stories from a Transgender Dad' shares beautiful moments that really resonate. It gave me a lot to think about regarding gender and family dynamics. Highly recommended for anyone curious about trans narratives.

Not what I expected
I bought this book thinking it would be a deeper exploration of trans experiences in parenting. While it had its moments, I found some parts a bit surface-level. It’s an okay read, but not as insightful as I hoped.
