Advice from Linda, A Mother who Lost Her Baby to Adoption

As a Mom that lost her baby girl to adoption I am amazed that young women are still being told the same things like their mommies don't have anything they need. I would like to share as to what us Natural Moms do have that our babies do need. The perfect food for our babies. Doctors will tell you that babies thrive on their mommies milk.

Also, what the adoption industry will not tell young Moms is what us older Moms at reunion are finding out. It is that our children suffered from losing us.Read Primal Wound please before you surrender to the adoption brokers.

Also, I belong to many sites that have adoptees there and they say they always wondered what was wrong with them that they were given away.To say to an adoptee that I loved you so I gave you away does not make much sense to them. Does that mean that whoever loves an adoptee will leave them?Adoptees miss being raised with people like themselves. As my daughter told me " it is like putting an orange couch in a purple room. They just don't go together.

I am a volunteer mentor for a Young Moms group and they are awesome Moms to their children. They admit they were scared to be single Moms but they are doing it and both they and their babies are thriving.A loving Mom will sacrifice herself but will not sacrifice her child.

What millions of Us Moms are finding out from our grown children is that they were hurt from not being raised in their natural familys homes. they do feel like they were sacrificed.

Also, many Moms are coming forward saying their open adoption agreements were slammed shut for no reason and they were not told that in most states open adoption agreements are not legally binding.

Why am I telling all of you this?because I don't want all of you to have to learn what the adoption industry won't tell you about the truth about the harm that is done to mommies and their babies if they are seperated like we were. Many younger Moms that surrendered are still in denial and find it too hard to believe what us Moms have found out.

Go in truth and love, LindaW.
