I am an adoptive mom and I can say that I am a little nervous about the bmom deciding she does not want further contact. We spoke with her constantly for 4 months until placement. For two months after placement she emailed occasionally. After 1 year she does not email anymore, and did not send her agreed-to 1 year letter for benefit of child. I don't want to be pushy, I know that contact could be very painful for her. What we've done is set up a website with pictures that I update at least monthly so she can come see whenever she feels like it, if she feels like it. I know that she could also just be really busy, just like all teenagers! I am afraid, though, that she has moved on to the point where she no longer desires updates, which is OK and her choice, but it would be dissapointing to me as I wonder about her alot.
