[quote=Anonymous]My home state also had a registry (NY) so I second the Ohio poster who recommended checking for that first—if your bio mom is on it there is much less risk about being rejected. I had a good adoptive family and meeting my birth family and mother has also been good—and has made her incredibly happy (and sad about all that she missed at the same time, it is complicated-especially for her, but she would not change it.) I know that means I am very lucky, but for every story that ends in hurt out there, there are ones like mine where my life just got richer and more full—my kids get more love in their life. I second the PPs who have said to think carefully both about how you will feel if you get rejected but also about if you will feel if you are received with open arms. Balancing a whole new family and being respectful of the feelings of my parents and siblings that have been there for me my entire life is tricky stuff to say the least. Best of luck to the OP and wishing for peace for the birthmoms and adoptees on this thread that are still in pain. [/quote]
