feeling sick to my stomach....
We have been matched with our birthmom and she has given birth. It's been 48 hours and she has not signed. She is "on the fence". We left the hospital and are now just waiting to hear something...........I feel like I am going to be SICK!!!!!!!

We went thru the same thing. She needed more time. We brought the baby home as a foster placement to give her an additional 10 days to make her decision. She then signed. I wish you the best. I certainly know how you are feeling.

So sorry that you're going through this - just know that if and when she does decide to sign that she'll be sure in her decision. If that takes a few more days, it will be worth it once the child is part of your family.
Prayers and hugs to you and to this Mom making a huge decision.

Our son's birthparents took him home for a week because they were on the fence. They've since shared with us that they really needed that time to think and then ultimately that time to say goodbye. Hang in there hun. I know exactly how you feel and it's a hard place to be.

Exactly, a decision like this shouldn't be made quickly, as hard as it is for everyone.
