KK,
Sorry to hear about your situation. We just went through a similar case where the birth mother took the child back after we had him for 5 weeks. He was born on March 23 and taken from us on April 27 2005. I am meeting with the director of the adoption agency to address some of the issues that we had with the support (or lack thereof) provided by them to the birthmother. It felt to us that they left her dangling trying to deal with the grief of the loss with input coming only from the biological father. He was eventually able to wear her down and sway her to take the child back. This is from a woman who has never wanted children and aborted two prior pregnancies (she only found out about this one during the third trimester). The father also has two other children with two other mothers and has no ongoing relationship with the birthmother.
we are only hoping that by meeting with the program director we can prevent this from happening to another adoptive family.
Our thoughts are with you as you deal with your loss
