Need your thoughts and prayers

Hi everyone,

My DH and I brought home our little one this week. We were in the hospital with the very sweet Birthmother and her family and everything went great.

We are over the moon with happiness.

Today, however, we heard she is having doubts and may want to parent. We are just in a daze. I can't even imagine giving him back as I am already so deeply in love.

I know that she has every right to parent. I logically understand that. But, my heart is breaking right now. I am just living minute by minute waiting for her decide.

Just needed to share. Thank you ladies.

TAP
