Though this thread is directed at adoptees, as a bmom I'm sorry to butt in. CJaneG, you are so right when you made your statement about why would a women give up her baby--in someways we didnt have a choice.
I didnt want to give up my baby. I honestly felt like I had a gun to my head, and I had already been thru so much with my parents with my pregnancy, it was a mess. Now move on 25 years later, and my mother is dying from breast cancer and telling me that they were wrong in demanding that I place my child for adoption. I remember my body instantly running ice cold. Here was my mother, Im thinking that she doesnt understand the depth of my pain and shes apologizing on her deathbed. The emotions and feelings of pain, anger, hurt are all returning and returning with a vengence. That was 7 years ago. I did find her birthfather (and have been in contact with his parents) and told him that I wanted to find our daughter, he told me not to. Im hoping that this is the year that I can pay CHS to find her.
