I call my bmom by her first name, but only because that's what makes the two of us comfortable. I love her immensly, but she doesn't feel like "mom" to me. The parental baggage isn't there. She feels almost more like my twin sister.

Besides, I have to admit that I feel guilty because my amom has been hurt by my reunion...calling my bmom "mom" would just feel strange partly for that reason...but I am working on getting past the guilt!
