The subject of adoption is a complicated one. It's never easy. And always steeped in deep emotions. We offer a place for people to better understand and help heal.
The women who placed their child for adoption and are in need of support. No "birth mom" fits into a cookie cutter image, and the mission is a chance for all of us to get together share stories and bounce off ideas for the future of adoption. It won't be an easy task and there are many opposing positions on adoption that we do come in conflict with. However we confront every situation with a mother's loving heart that only wants to do what is best for her child.
Operating as usual

Changing the face of adoption, supporting women and cherishing life since 2010!
For adoptees. Anyone who feels the same way, feel free to share. Love hearing from the point of view of the we say we care about the most in adoption. The kids.
Today is my birthday and my daughterâs half birthday! I haven't seen her since adoption day (I was lucky to be with her for a month before the adoption right after her birth... Those days are still THE BEST DAYS OF MY LIFE)
All I want for my bday or WISH for is to be able to tell her how much I love her and give her a big hug!!! I have 5 more years till she turns 18 and can make her own decision about meeting me. Thinking about that day I finally reconnect with her is what keeps me going and makes me want to become a woman she can be proud to call her birthmom. I just love her so much! I never thought I'd survive this long without seeing her... but here I am! I'm thankful for the updates that I do get yearly from her APâs though! Just can't wait for day I can celebrate with her instead of without. No celebration is completeutol I can share it with the one I love most in the world! Hopefully somedayđ€ Happy Half Birthday Sweetie. All I really wish for is that she is happy right now and loved unconditionally. I canât wait to give her that kind of love someday soon, too!
Birth Mom Missions updated their information in their About section.
When a mother gives birth, she empties herself of her child. The baby begins a new life outside of the motherâs body, but still close to her, still relying on her for food and nurture. The motherâs body is empty, but her arms are full.
In adoption, the woman who carries the child will not be the same woman who cares for the child. By giving birth and placing her child in the arms of another family, a birthmother empties more than just her body. She empties her nest (heart and soul)
Sending the one update allowed each year to my daughter via snail mail now
The bonding of mother and child is a miraculous outpouring of unobstructed love channeled through the mortal coil. Nursing is the physical bond of nourishment â mother is the first meal, she is the key to life. Between mother and child, there are also
bio-electromagnetic bonds, emotional and psychic bondings, and ultimately the spiritual bond that brought them together.

I love all of you

Sharing a quick health tip today on the importance of a good night's sleep!
This is a working title for this group. All members of this mission know that gathering together with other women who have had similar experiences (i.e. adoption, birth, etc) helps. So the more specific, the better. Feel free to make your own group on this page too. I personally would like someone who knows exactly what itâs like to go through an experience like mine, so her is this group. May n to be many of us but that's all the more reason to find each other. I'm tired of being ashamed or worried how the word ârapeâ sounds to others. Itâs just about the truth, when you are trying to heal. Who cares if others know we were raped cause of the group, we need to be able to find each other in the world and being public about it is the only way to find and help each other. I tried in my own way to recover by forming this non-profit and it helped greatly. But I feel we also need to get more specific within this mission and community that we have formed. WE have a group for adopted parents and birth moms but there are birth moms of so many kinds and to try to group them all is hard and misses the chance to truly help. Mission started to just raise awareness that we existed and were out there, now letâs be more specific and get to this healing process. So maybe now our page can begin to show by its âgroupsâ the amount of variations among birth mothers. We can't all be grouped together if we want to heal, and we know that! I hope to meet some women with even more similar experiences and know how they got through it and how they are doing and managing. I love you gals with all my heart and Iâm so glad you have joined me in the mission. It means so much to all us birth moms out there. I placed for adoption and love her so much. But I wonder how everyone else is doing that had to go through this weird situation. I also didnât let myself acknowledge rape or pregnancy for 7 months, so that was very odd but somehow it all worked out like a miracle. So don't be embarrassed to for a group no matter what words you have to use. I thought about labeling group with âsexual assault victimâ but that sounds odd too. I don't like the word rape at all, but thatâs what it is called so ya know. Even rape has so many different forms. Mine wasnât typical date rape but happened in my own room with my door locked back in a college type dorm setting. I was drugged without knowing it in my no alcoholic drink and then unable to move while a man I didnât know and could see forced himself on me. No reason to hid it. Sh*t happens and its what we make of it that matters. I turned sh*t into a way to help other women who are going through any of the same experiences and emotions that I did and hopefully guide them through it because I wish I had had that kinda support then. And even tho rape please don't think I love her any less or it was any easier to let her go. I love that girl with everything inside me that is left to love with! My baby was unplanned, but she was wanted by me and her adoptive parents. I knew she was meant to exist on earth, so I let nature take its course. I hear it is very rare to get pregnant from rape, but letâs see if that's true? I like to think adoption is the option most women choose in the situation., but I have no judgement and just think this group could help us all. At least I hope so! I struggled with abortion option too, but by hiding pregnancy from myself and disassociating from it, I was able to not hurt my precious baby girl. I think I didnât trust myself fully. I wonder if itâs hard for people to understand us? OR how we feel about our children. Or more importantly, if our children grow up wondering how we would feel about them? And if so, id love to explain my feelings towards my daughter because I have nothing but love for her. She was wanted and is missed every day and when I finally see her face again she should never worry that it would remind me of rape. She is so much of a miracle she has to know she could never even come close to disappointing me and I have always loved her the whole time and will never stop. So this is just one of the new groups to come, and I just named it what it was. Love you all for joining me in this mission! https://business.facebook.com/groups/rapedandpregnant/
Your courage and selfless sacrifice will be a gift that will last a lifetime for your child.
