April 2012 Moms

Update on meeting piglets future parents again :-)

So i am 99% sure they are the couple and plan on telling them this weekend when we next meet up. I want to be so certain before i tell them although i think they are very optimistic and sure.

I completely love the woman, she is one of the most down to earth gorgeous person i have ever met. my heart breaks for her though when i hear more of her story, she sas had 3 miscarriages and all her babies were concieved through invitro (spelling), this woman deserves a baby so much and i hate the fact that i can just get pregnant on the pill when she has struggled so much. 

We asked so many questions but also just chatted, she is 100% agreement with open adoption and said that she is even willing for us to come and see piglet during christmas and everything if we pick her. she told me that she would let me be involved as much as possible.

I am not going to go into any more detail of what else we talked about as alot of it is her stuff but everything went well.

I must admit though my heart does sink abit when i think i will be missing alot and won't be her mom, I have gotten to the point where i think i know that whether or not baby hates me later on i know she will have a great life, i will still see her and she will have open and amazing parents.

 I hope you guys do not mind me still being on here and comstantly updating it is nice to just be able to write somehwere i know i will not get judged, i have been on other pregnancy sites and it means so much to me that i can just write. I am truly going to miss you all when this pregnancy is over. i also know i don't comment alot as most of them is about getting stuff and when the baby is here so it is does not apply to me but i do read alot.

So that is my update :-)

  • I think I speak for all of us when I say that you are always welcome to post on here! Adoption or not, you're still an April mommy. 

    I think it's great that you've found such an awesome couple. It must be such a relief to have found people who you feel so comfortable with. It sounds like they're great for you and the option to have an open adoption will give you so much peace of mind because you will always know she is doing well. I think you're doing such a brave and honorable thing. Your daughter will thank you one day for sure. Hugs!

  • I am so impressed with your attitude toward the whole situation. Looks like you found your little girl great parents. You never know, your little girl may completely understand when she is older and appreciate all that you gave up for her. I truly admire you for making what you think will be the best decision for your daughter, as well as yourself.

  • You are making a brave and selfless choice giving your baby a life that you can't give her. This is truly amazing and she will never hate you for this. She will still know you and have double the love from her bio mom and her adoptive mom. It also sounds like you really adore the couple you will most likely choose, which makes it even better since you will be linked together forever. You should be very proud of yourself for taking the road less traveled and putting your baby's needs above your own wants!

  • You are doing such an amazing thing. I am sure that it will help you transition as you know that you have picked out a wonderful family for your LO. Thanks for the update.

  • I am so proud of you for doing what is best for your daughter -- especially since it is such a difficult thing. I would be shocked if she grew up to hate you -- she is going to know you and know how much you love her. 

    I do hope you are coordinating this through a lawyer or an agency. I am sure there are a lot of odd legal issues involved in any adoption, and I just want to be sure you are protecting yourself (this is none of my business of course, please don't be offended by this suggestion).

  • I got all teary eyed reading this. I think you are doing a great thing and your statement about how you got pregnant on the pill while she has suffered hits home to me. I had two surprise babies and sometimes feel overwhelemingly guilty that I got pregnant to easily while others suffer. You are welcome here always 
    i wish i could be joking but my dad is the music teacher at a church so he owuld be mad. we had sex, all the time how bad i know but we dont want to wait and he said GREAT OH KAY! and I was really feeling the wets? down there- too embarsed to say- but he acted like man.
  • I'm glad that you are feeling so great about this!

    Also, you are more than welcome to come here and post! (HUGS)

  • Thanks for updating.  I'm glad the meeting went well and they're willing to keep things open for you!  I really don't think your baby will hate you later on so try not to worry about that aspect too much.

  • I haven't read all the responses but i think you are doing an amazing thing.  and if you are open and honest with your daughter as she grows up she will see that and know you did the best thing you could for her.  i highly doubt she will ever hate you for giving her the best life you could!

    Gracie, you rock girl. You. Rock.

    This sums it up nicely. I'm so glad everything went well and that you've found wonderful parents for your precious little girl. No one deserves a baby more than people who've tried as hard to have a family as this couple has. Your daughter could never hate you for that. Your bravery, strength and maturity will take you far in life, Gracie. I'm excited to see where you go and what you do after this. Please keep us posted, and whenever you worry about whether or not you're doing the right thing, come back and read all these responses, k? hugs to you.
