I think that it is a wonderful idea that you have, however, I would not introduce the birthmother to the family until the placement has taken place. You may want to arrange some meetings with her alone, but I would keep these at regular intervals as well.
I think that your intentions are wonderful and the birthmother is very fortunate to have found someone as caring as you. After the placement, this would be fine. Just try to wait it out to see how things go, and grow your relationship in the meantime through periodic meetings with her. Just make sure that she is comfortable with whatever you plan.
Congratulations again!
