What is a Birth Mother?

There are a lot of misconceptions surrounding birth mothers. Today, we’ll talk about the truth of what a birth mother is and focus on their strength. 

What it Really Means to be a Birth Mother…

The decision to give birth is not always an easy one. In making it, the birth mother had to think long and hard about whether or not she would be able to give the child the best chance at a promising future. Placing the baby up for adoption is generally a selfless act of love. The birth mother usually goes through a lengthy process of picking the family that she feels is the best option that will love, cherish, and support the child. She wants to be sure that she is providing the best chance for a stable and secure upbringing that her child can thrive in.

Sadly, this isn’t always how birth mothers are viewed. But we don’t have to accept this. We can rewrite the narrative and spread the word that birth mothers are strong, loving, and courageous. The decisions that they have to make take so much strength and thoughtfulness.
