I think that it is all about emoms choice. Like others said adoptive parents at the delivery can impact on her decisiion and we dont want this person in the most difficult time of her life to decide under pressure and emotions afraid of hurting the prospective parents. The beauty of adoption is...

I really don't think there is a "right" answer. I think that your e-mom is out there and she will find you! the reason I don't think there is a right answer is because I really think that all e-moms look for different things, based on what is important to them. I've talked to moms and...

Long story made short, E's mother developed breast cancer when E was 8 years old. Through much deception on my husband's ex-wife's part she was able to...

You probably triggered some really deep emotional thoughts in her. Give her some time. There are some things that are just never comfortable for people to talk about. My first mom refuses contact with me at all because it is too painful. Unless we experience it, and I have, there is no way as...

I am sorry. Hopefully she will respond soon. if you had an agreement with her this is not far. Try to calm your heart and her silence does not mean that your baby is not on good hands. Adoptive parents also go to some emotional hard times and she may be wondering how to write for you, what to say,...

So many questions can be answered and relationships not damaged if you say and truly mean " I have some hard questions I would like to ask you, and I will still care about you and want to be with you no matter what the answers are". That is how I would start. Good luck.

I am going to answer your question as openly as I can. I definately hoped my daughter would contact me as an adult. I hoped she would tell me her life as an adopted child was great and hoped to give her information and form some type of family relationship. I never thought I would be in the mother...

So sorry you have had this happen to you. I tried for the past 13 years to have a relationship with no success. Sometimes you just have to accept the reality no matter how much it hurts.

Thank you for sharing. Letting yourself experience your feelings (rage, sadness, grief, etc) is the healthiest way to work through them so you can move on. I'm glad that you have been able to work through your rage and have come out the other side a healthier persom. Thank you too for...

I had to find out early. I couldn't wait because the not knowing was constantly on my mind and distracted me. Growing up was tough but it is even tougher when you don't know who you are. Go through the agency and leave contact info and medical information. There is not enough info here for anyone...
