meet my birth mother

I am 19 years old and have just recently been told my birthmothers name. I have been dying to meet her since I was about 12. If you have any information on how I can succeed in doing this please tell me. Thank you.

I found my birthmother in the 1980’s. She was in complete denial. It was very sad. But 7 years ago I found my sister, and we’ve become incredibly close. Our poor birth mother had a very complicated life with a lot of sadness and deceit. Because of the times in which she lived it was very scandalous to have a child, never mind two, out of wedlock. We both have the same father, and we found that we had four half-sisters and a half-brother. My sister and I have forged a great relationship with each other, and it was worth the effort to find her. Do this!!!

be prepared for anything and you won’t be disappointed!!!

I was put in a foster home when I was 7. I grew up knowing why. I’d been there I’d seen it with my own eyes. i saw my father lift that gun and fire it three times into my mothers head. I saw her fall to the ground. I saw her die. I will never forget that. I wish I could meet her now, I wish she would just show up on my porch and be like ‘Baby, it was a bad dream. I would never leave you.’ My father is in jail. After he murdered my mom he took my twin sister upstairs… she never came back down. My sister, my identical twin now lays in her grave next to my mama in Alabama where my father is in jail. I forgave him. I love my dad.

She contacted my twin sister and I, out of the blue! My sister doesn’t want to meet her, and I do…I think. We have exchanged a couple of letters, and for right now, that is plenty….

i am just starting this process. i am looking for my birth mom. mainly for my medical records. i have three kids now. i was born 8/24/82 in florence az

I have found out where my mother lives.. but I decided to everything properly as I don’t want to turn up on her doorstep and give her the shock of her life. So yesterday I contacted the social worker and she says I have to write a written application then they will check my files and take it from there. So I need to get cracking with the letter..

great. in my case it is great. for my sister who was also adopted, her attempt was not so great. i’d be happy to discuss the subject though, as i have a lot of experience with it, not strictly personal.

I have been adopted from birth and I love my mum and dad very much, but theres still that wonder. I am lucky to know who my birth mother is and we send eachother photos and cards through the adoption agency. I also have a little half brother who must be alsmost 14 now who I have never met. I would love to meet them both. I am now 20 and I feel ready but its so hard because of all the other things going off in my life. I did have a hard time when i was 15-16 and applyed to meet her but it was denyed. I undestand why now, as I thought I was ready then and I really wasnt. My parents are fine about me meeting her.. or was until it came nearer and nearer to me becoming 18. I’m 20 now and still havent done anything about it, my dad is totally fine about it and I can say- so is my mum but she seems worried no matter how much I reassure her. My birth father died not long after I was born but I think my mum thinks my birth mother may take her place.. which is not true. I have to say my mum is a drama queen though lol.. so she alway take things further than they have to be! I understand what shes saying though. But my mum who adopted me left and went to live in Scotland when I was 8 or 9 and it was really hard. It’s hard for a child to deal with. And of course I did think about my birth mother a lot after that. As my birth mother had only give me up so that I could be in a normal family environment with two parents. The adoption society.. (over 10 years on) have still not told her that my parents split up.

I think I may have to continue this story someother time..!

I meet my birth mom 12 years ago. I have not talked to her since than, but meeting her filled a big void in my life. She was not what I had imagined as a child. If you are searching good luck!!
