[quote=Anonymous]I'm an adoptive mom.  My son was born in the Spring of 2017 and is a completely healthy toddler now.  Our BM chose us.  She wanted to get to know us and we spent some (awkward) time on Skype getting to know each other.  She is a good person and we still have some contact.  We went through an agency in a different state.  The law of that state are that once she signed the papers, he was ours and there was no right of rescission.  She signed the papers the day after he was born.

We were told by the agency with whom we were working that most BM fear the adoptive family taking the baby and that she never knows what happens from there.  We send letters and pictures a couple of times a year as well as some pictures and gifts at Christmas.  We also have a secret Facebook page where I post pictures and videos when my son does something cute.  She always responds with an "I love you (baby name)" and she will post a nice message to us from time to time.  You may want to offer a couple of those type of things to your BM.

I wish you all the best.  Parenthood has been an absolutely amazing experience for us.  We constantly ltalk about how lucky we got to have this little guy.  We feel this way even when he iis throwing a tantrum. (He is a toddler so it happens)

Fingers crossed for you, OP.
