Adoption. I feel so happy, but so sad.
Last month, I lost a baby.
Or so it feels.
My child is alive and well, but I'm still grieving.
I know I made a good decision in choosing adoption. But knowing you made a good decision doesn't prevent the what ifs and the sadness.
I bet he's starting to hold his head up.
I bet he has had his first smile.
Maybe he is a happy baby, or maybe he cries alot.
What if he misses me?
What if he doesn't miss me?
I agreed to a closed adoption. I kind of wish I hadn't agreed to the adoptive family's request. Also, that makes me feel selfish. He isn't my baby anymore.
Adoption feels like loss, even though I'm happy for him. I can still mourn for me.
