Don birth mothers sometimes change their minds?
Sometimes, even after an adoption plan has been developed, a birth parent may decide to parent their child rather than place for adoption. While this can be heartbreaking to an expectant adoptive couple, it doesn’t mean their adoption journey is over. Additionally, most birth mothers change their minds before the child is born, or right after birth while still in the hospital. Less than one percent of birth mothers change their minds once the baby has gone home with an adoptive family.
