Mark and I completely agree!!!!
As we have just placed 2 days ago and are sitting in a hotel with this precious gift; it is wonderful to be able to talk to the BP and go do things with her.
Last night we all went out to dinner and had a wonderful time. She needed the time to see the baby and we needed the time to see her with him.
It definately is all about educating yourself, in our situation I feel that I have experienced everything but the physical part of the birth which believe me my BP says I am not missing anything I was fortunate to stay in the hospital with her and the baby for the 2 nights she was there and we bonded even more; which I did not think was possible The hospital staff was wonderful; they woke me up every 3 hours to feed the baby and taught me alot about how to care for a newborn.
In all honesty it is hard to hear the words OPEN ADOPTION at first because it is threatening but once you realize all the many many benefits there is just no other way to do it.
