Here is a conversation from today. I deleted all the names but my own because I don't want to infringe on anyones personal life but I DID want to share the conversation. Please know what terms to use. If you aren't sure we are more than willing to educate you or let you know what we prefer.
SF Okay I have held my tongue for 3 1/2 years since the placement of my birth daughter. I am in a bad mood and got one final button pushed. I am tired of being told not to use the term 'birthmom'. I am a birthmom because I carried a life for 9 months then made the sacrifice of placing her with a loving family, I cannot undo being a birthmom therefore I cannot stop using the term. Im sorry it offends a lot of you but it does not offend my daughters parents to my knowledge so until it offends them to call me a birthmom I will continue to use it. So get over it and yourself and butt out. Thank you that is all
