We had a beautiful baby girl come into our life on April 30th. We were at the hospital and took her home the next day. Two weeks after we had her home her birth mother changed her mind and wanted to have a trial week with her. We dont know if she is coming back. How do we get past this. Our fear is we will never see her again. We love this little girl and our son who is 11 is also adoptive loves his sister. He has waited all this time for a sibling only to be taken away. Any advice on how to deal with this. Our family is devasted and heartbroken. We are holding on to our faith but each day without her seems like forever.

Dear Nerraka,
We also suffered the same blow. We had a beautiful baby girl that we brought home from the hospital. We had her for 4 weeks. She was our first child. Unfortunately, I don't have any good advice other than rely on your faith to get you through. I came to this site looking for answers too.
I have found that the grief of loosing a child feels so different from all other losses. I hope your birthmother chooses you and your family to place her child.

Thank you so much for the encouraging words. I have found that our faith is the only thing getting us through this. Even then, some days are tough.
After two weeks, our birthmother decided to keep her baby. I miss her so much but I just have to pray that she will be ok. It is hard when you have no control over the situation.
I am sorry to hear about your loss. I understand exactally how you feel. I believe that your faith will pull you through this one day at a time. Some days you can only take a minute at a time. Hang in there, as with us your baby will always be a part of your life whether you had her a life time or a few weeks. In that short time, you gave love to last a life time.
