I have no experience with domestic adoption, but as the mother of a child adopted internationally while I have used the term birthmom it is not a term for which I'm very fond.
I have never met the woman who gave life to our daughter. But when and if I do, I will address her as Lydia's mother as I hope she will also address me. Until we meet she is her faraway mom and I am her mommy near.
