Two Good Mums

Family

Many years ago, Laura’s baby was removed from her care and adopted by Peggy. Here we share our journey of adoption; the milestones along the way, the wrong turns we might have taken, and how we gradually became travelling companions. Two Good Mums is our story. Little did we know that while we’d been merrily going our own way for over a decade, building our friendship over email and getting our families together every year, post-adoption contact had become a hot issue. When the final episode has aired, we hope you’ll agree that ours is a good story, a timely story, and a story worth telling.
