Tomorrow will be one week since I gave birth to my beautiful daughter. 26 hours of labor! She was placed with her adoptive family today and I could not be happier for her, although I still wish I could have kept her. I picked out the family myself as they reflected my own adoptive parents. It is an open adoption though so I will still have her in my life as the family wants her to know my love and keep a connection. I have not had any 'baby blues' thus far but I have weekly appointments with my therapist to check in.
Any advice from birth mothers out there that have experienced the grief of having to give up their child?
