This Mother’s Day, the Positive Women’s Network – USA reclaims and redefines motherhood from our perspective. As a network for all women living with HIV, including transgender women, we are: Women who have been discouraged, shamed, and forbidden from having children. Women who rely on the support of our doctors, partners, healthcare systems, and each other to safely conceive and deliver a healthy baby. Women who were diagnosed with HIV during pregnancy. Women who gave up the dream of motherhood after our diagnosis. Queer-identified women who may be shamed for having children. Women who fight for our rights to parent and raise our children. Women who want to have children, but cannot afford assisted reproductive technology. Women who have grown into adulthood and our sexual and reproductive lives with an HIV diagnosis. Women who choose and create our own families. Women who are successfully parenting our HIV-positive and HIV-negative children. Women who nurture and foster the growth of young people in our lives, regardless of whether we are biologic mothers. Women who fight for justice for the next generation. Our experiences are diverse. Yet, at the end of the day we are proud to hold our communities and families together. Stand with us. Show your support for HIV-positive women on Mother’s Day by signing your name below.
