Birth Mom Stories that Get to the Heart of the Matter

In a recent post , we shared how the hope and mission of all of us here at TruAdopt is to support expectant parents and guide them through their adoption journey. We strive to give birth mothers a voice and to spread awareness of struggle, pain, and joy that are all part of the process.

We want to share birth mom stories from three great organizations. These stories get to the heart of the matter — that placing a child is an act of selfless love. We are so moved and inspired by these women. We hope that these blog posts and videos will be as much of an inspiration to you as they are to us!

1.   Hope Deferred and Longing Fulfilled: A birth mother opens up about the toughest choice she’s ever made
Claris Health Blog
This birth mother’s diary tracks the emotional journey from the positive pregnancy test to her daughter’s first birthday.

“My heart feels like a 100-pound weight is crushing it, splitting it in two. Yet in the depths of my soul, I know this is the right decision for my daughter and for everyone. The smiles of my daughter’s future parents give me greater joy than I can ever put into words.”

2.   I Love My Son
The Archibald Project
How placing her son for adoption was the best decision she could make for her son.

“I want the world to know that I love my son, and I didn’t abandon him when I made the decision to place him for adoption. I remember talking to one of my co-workers when I was pregnant; he knew that I loved kids and wondered why I was making this decision. I told him that the decision wasn’t about me, it was about my son.”
