Two sides of the story
Hi there, I also heard similar words from my birthmom when she asked me when my birthday was? I was astonished she would not remember the EXACT date. However, in the meantime I have learned that she was forced into adopting me out, it was really traumatic for her and that often times women of that time frame were given a drug cocktail to basically make them not remember much. I on the other hand have suffered a couple of miscarriages and cannot tell you when they occured exactly nor can I remember the months. I can give an approximation as I knew about how far along I was when I miscarried but still without looking at medical records, no clue except for the last one two years ago. So don't be so hard on her. To have a baby taken from you, the shame that was put upon her, the lies/deceit involved it makes total sense to me that she couldn't remember. Just my opinion.
