Let Me Take Your Hands
I'm a birthmom in a very open adoption and am also parenting 1.5 kids

This is my blog. In it, I mostly write about adoption, with a few interludes on my day-to-day life. It's a mixture of memoir, personal beliefs about adoption, stats about adoption, and ideas for adoption reform. Often, it's about the heartbreak of being a birthmother.

I gave up my son almost 15 years ago. I now have a baby daughter I am raising. I am trying to better understand who I am as a person and as a mother because of these two special children.

Blogging Birth/First-mothers
It seems to me that there are a lot more birthmothers blogging about their experiences these days. It's a great source of comfort to know other birthmothers. So I thought a community would be a good way for us to have a loose-knit little group. Please do not be offended by the name. It is hard to be politically correct for everyone, it is not meant to be offensive.
