Dear Brandy,
I would welcome that change. I cringe when I read it and even worse is "our birthmother". BTW - my cringing is for the mother and the unborn child - those 9 months MAY be the only time they are together as mother and child. So unfair to label them something that they are not.
Happy G'Ma
