[quote=Anonymous]We did an open adoption through Adoptions Together and adopted DD as a 30 day old baby. I think it is important to put the interests of the child first and thats whay I wanted it to be open. Having said that, for us that meant, we have to be willing to meet the birth Mom once a year, all done through the agency, and send 5 photos and write a letter once a year, all done through a web portal. We tried reaching out to the BM about 2 months after we got DD, again on her 1st birthday and again on her 2nd birthday. She said she wasnt ready all those times. So even though it is open we currently have no contact. m We didnt try again and just celebrated her 5th birthday I hope for my daughters sake when she is 8, 10, 12 14 or whenever she is ready, and has questions and wants to meet her BM that BM will be willing.[/quote]
