Ocracoke, when do you use "first" as opposed to "birth"? Does it depend on whether the adoptee was adopted at birth or later? I am just curious. I also don't like the term "natural" (just my own visceral reaction).
I haven't had any discussions about "titles" with my DD's birth mom. I truly believe people should be able to call themselves whatever the heck they want, but I do think for me the "distinction" comes when you are asked as a parent to use a term with your child that you are not comfortable with. That hasn't happened to me...not sure how I would handle it!
