I would also add that in your contact with her (letters, conversations) reiterate how you talk about her to your child.

We let our son's birthmom know that we think of her all the time, talk about her to our son, and pray for her. She may just need a little reminder that in all this hard work she's doing to remind herself that you are the mommy and reassure YOU, you're wanting to solidify her place in her child's life and reassure HER.
