I'm the birthmom to a beautiful 9 month old daughter, her two daddies are everything I wanted for her..but I don't know if they will consider me part of their family or what my daughter will eventually call me. Deep down I obviously hope they'll encourage her to call me mama or mommy, especially since I can no longer have children and I've been so fiercely in love with her since the moment she tumbled around inside of me...after only 9 months and living in different states, we're all still navigating exactly what open adoption means and I'm always so afraid to ask for much. Reading this post made me think that perhaps I can still dream of a moment when she calls me mommy.Solcathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06659534772415465463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5106357523590430742.post-5794083969295519772009-04-04T15:44:00.000-07:002009-04-04T15:44:00.000-07:00That is so great that you are involving the birth ...That is so great that you are involving the birth mother in your son's life.

This means that the birth mother and father can be involved in our son's life. I think it will be more confusing for him if he did not know his story. His birth-mom. Our approach to this is to be honest with our son. He will not be confused because he will understand his unique family from day one. My attempt is to alleviate an identity issue as he gets older. He will know exactly where he came from and who his parents and birth-parents are.Andrew's Daddieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10963637834438914144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5106357523590430742.post-35498169256662845862009-04-03T10:47:00.000-07:002009-04-03T10:47:00.000-07:00That is cool you are having her invovled.
