I am a birth mother since November of 2016. We have an open adoption and that has helped immensely with my healing. I have found a community of women who share the same bond of adoption.

I became a birth mom in 2016. I got pregnant half way through my senior year of high school, so I struggled with shame and wanted to keep the pregnancy a secret. However I’ve come a long way and am now very proud of my story.
