Brandi Andrews reached a point in her life when she was ready to have a baby. She was not in a romantic relationship and knew her path would be a bit less traditional as a lesbian woman. Her gay best friend Lawrence was  also ready to have a baby, too.  So after a lot of talking and a parental contract laying the foundation for a co-parenting framework, they decided to start the journey as parents together.  Their journey was filmed and shared on 9 Months by Courtney Cox. 

Brandi shares her story from meeting Lawrence to co-parenting with him today, including:

• how she and Lawrence met and went from best friends to parents
• how friends and family reacted 
• the process of getting pregnant
• the details of their parenting contract 
• what parenthood has been like 
• how parenthood has affected  or changed her relationship with Lawrence
• what has surprised her the most

Brandi's story is unique, but many of the challenges are very relatable.  Her honesty, vulnerability,  and courage in parenting is refreshing and brave.
