I feel very confused about things, because she says that she's so happy about this,
and she can't stop thinking about me, but I seem to feel like something is weird. I suspect part of it might be that I am over thinking things.


Its the unsaid words that do us in.. I think..
She may be having a terrible time.. and may not be able to deal with it other than shutting down her emotions..

I know some birthmoms can compartmentalize their lives.. their emotions.. I can..
When I had my second child after I relinquished my first.. I could not deal with anyone around me.. and appeared cold.. I threw my husband out of the labor room..

I had to shut people/him out when the trauma was on me..

I say give her time..
