My agency will do closed adoptions, but it's the rare birthmom who wants a completely closed adoption, and it is ultimately her choice. My friends were actually chosen by a birthmom who didn't want any contact with them (she didn't even see the baby), but there was alcohol use, so they didn't choose to parent that child.

We have a very loose semi-open adoption; my son's bmom and I communicate through email, and we met her at the hospital. The email contact was a choice we made after meeting her; in our initial profile, we said that we wanted no contact not mediated by the agency.
