Leigh, so you think that calling a woman who is pregnant and considering adoption a birthmom is ok?

I guess my question is confusing. Its mostly geared torwards those who don't believe that calling a birthmom a birthmom pre-termination is right.

If its ok to call a mother a mother before she gives birth then why not all a birthmother a birthmother before she gives birth.

I think you might have misunderstood the question - it sounds like you are ok with the use of birthmother pre-TPR, which is the opinion of the person I had the initial conversation with that prompted this post.

[Edited to add: I want to hear from both sides - so thank you for posting Leigh I re-read and realized that maybe my post made it sound like I didn't want to hear from those who were ok with the current adoption terminology.]
