Extending June's submission deadline!

I'm stuck in another writer's block so June's zine is already going to be a little late. To make up for this, I'm extending June's submission deadline to June 1st, 2026 (it was originally May 21st, 2026)

If you are a trans man, transmasc, an intersex man and/or enby-aligned and have experiences to share relating to pregnancy, abortions, and/or childbirth, please share your stories! You can send them to my dms, asks or email

[mpregoutsidefiction]

Do you want to be part of June's edition?

I'm accepting submissions for June's zine until May 21st, 2026. If you're a trans man, transmasc, intersex man, and/or gender neutral and have experience with pregnancy and/or parenting, I would love to hear from you.

You can take a look at the guidelines here, if you're unsure that your story counts please ask!! The answer is probably going to be yes. You can submit your experiences through asks, dms and/or email

This edition includes a pregnancy checklist! This is a condescend list, I wanted something that covered the bigger milestones/appointments/planning before breaking the trimesters down in further zines. I tried to add things that I found helpful/wish I thought of as far as handling dysphoria when it comes to each trimester along with suggestions for the first week after birth. You can get the full zine over on the Patreon (free tier) now!

If anyone has suggestions for specific trimesters/an experience you want to share, you can send an email here or send a message to this blog here

There's still time to send in your own experiences for June's zine! I would love to get more of our stories together for the coming editions

I'm still searching for a fish to represent enby birthgivers and I have a couple that I want to get opinions on-

First is Pipefish, they're another fish like Seadragons and Seahorses where the male carries the babies. I think it's really cool that there are at least 3 species out there with that birthing dynamic. The enby definition wouldn't bring up the male/female dynamic of actual Pipefish though

The other fish I found are Corral Gobies, they don't have the same birth dynamic Seadragons/Seahorses do but! They're capable of changing their sex both ways (ftm and mtf) throughout their lives. It's not a perfect enby fish, I personally prefer it over the species that only switch one way (ftm or mtf). Like Pipefish, the actual definition for enby birth givers wouldn't bring up that fact.

Any thoughts? Or suggestions from enby birth givers on a better sea creature? I'd like to keep the ocean vibe this has accidentally gotten

Hi! For queer parents, scroll down to "Queer Family" on this page: https://lgbtqreads.com/childrens/

Book Recommendations

I'm putting together a list of books (toddler/children/teen) that include/talk about queer parents. I'm also making a book list for seahorse/seadragon/(I need a sea creature for enbies still >-<) parents.

I'm taking recommendations from others so if you know of a book, please let me know! I'd love to include it.
