Do we continue to make contact w/pbmom?
I'd love some advise from "both sides of the fence". I'l start from the beginning:
We met pbmom a few weeks ago. At the end of our meeting with her & parents in the same night, we mentioned that we'd stay in touch with her weekly. Just to see how she was doing, what's new, etc. We have stuck to that and she has been VERY receptive to our calls. We have kept the conversations to subjects relating to HER (after all she is pregnant and it's all about her now) like how her new apt & roommates are, how's her job search, etc.
Last week, she didn't answer & I left her a message. She didn't return the call; however, she made a point to be at a party we were at, knowing we'd be there. She took pics of us/her w/us, etc. She did tell us that she was leaning towards us, but that she was meeting with an agency/couple a few days later.
Her goal for making a decision as to who to place the baby with is coming soon. We'd like to be able to offer to answer any questions about us that may have come up during meeting(s) w/others.
My question is this: Do we continue to keep initiating contact? We don't want to put any additional pressure on her -- making this decision is tough and we respect this. But, on the other hand, we don't want her to wonder what happened to us.
We'd love to hear from amoms & bmoms as to their advise on how to continue! Thanks!
