since you are asking....
i agree with jnancy....
it is a good idea to check on your child and even though it may be emotional it has many benefits.
the FM will see who is taking the child she has been caring for and loving all these months. although it is her job we are talking about emotions and human beings.
you will learn things that will be helpful that only the foster mother will know; she may have a fav blanket, likes to be fed in a certain position, needs to be burped many times during a feeding, etc. this will help for the transition for you and baby too!
sure it's hard... this whole process can be hard but you can later tell your child about the wonderful care they recieved first hand.
i would guarantee you wouldn't regret it.....
jmho......
in the end you have to do what you are comfortable with and once you make that decision don't torture yourself about it. you know what is best for you and your family.....
