We already had a six year old son when we were chosen by our daughter's birthmom. That was actually the deciding factor for her. She wanted her baby to have an older sibling (especially an older brother).
She knew that he would cherish, protect, teach, adore, & love his baby sister like no other. How right she was! She is HIS sister! You better not look at her crossed eyed or else! LOL!
I also know plenty of people who have adopted, and then got pregnant after. Regardless, each child is unique and special in their own way.
I think ultimately, all birthmoms want the same thing for their baby. They want a loving, caring, safe, and secure environment for their baby. They want parents who will be able to provide all the things they aren't or weren't capable of. They want a better life for their child. They want to see their child happy & healthy.
The one thing Dee (bmom) always asks me whenever we talk, is if Sarah (daughter) is happy. he gets great joy & satisfaction that she has chosen the right family for her baby.
I think I have rambled a bit.
