I feared all the what ifs

Will the family I choose to raise my baby share her with me in open adoption and not fear me? Will thay think I want her back? Will thay feel like I am trying to co parent with them and have them pull away? Will my baby understand why I placed her for adoption when she gets older and not her sisters. Can I ever get over the guilt of not being able to parent her. This is just a small part of our fears as b moms. But am very happy to report 12 yrs of open adoption has calmed my fears and out of sadness grow hope and trust and respect with a stranger I only meet once before my child was born. I guess love for one so small can make two grown women find a place that thay can both meet and share a life. Just my thoughts Tina b mom to mollie 12 amd mommy to hannah and emily rose
