One of the world's most famous adoptive mothers made a comment I'd like to quote: 

 “Like most women, I love being pregnant.” She added that pregnancy makes “you feel like more like a woman than you've ever felt. You just feel like everything about your body is there for your baby.”  Angelina Jolie

As one who has been adopted and experienced four pregnancies, (one that did not come to term, and one that fruited twins),  I wonder how such a comment can be made, without it stirring the pot of Child Placement.  "Your body is there for your baby".  Yes... in pregnancy, the woman's body is FOR the baby, providing all the needs that little one has.  Of course, after birth, that baby becomes a member of a bigger body -- it's called Family.  I remember when my first baby was born, having to share her with others was very difficult for me.  She was mine, as no one knew before, yet "suddenly" because she was real, and others could hold her too, I was expected to share. 

It was this sharing of my blue-eyed baby that brought-out a whole new world of adoption issues no one ever shared with me.  I had to learn all about them, ALONE.  No one told me how much I would miss my natural mother than when I was pregnant, and never did I resent my adoptive family more than when they took credit for the looks of my baby.  You see, I have brown eyes... my daughter's blue eyes told me someone in my biologic-family had blue eyes, too.

I never knew that.  All I knew is my mother couldn't keep me, and she was replaced by Americans.

Do adoptive mothers realize a child knows the difference between being born into a family versus being bought brought into one because of money and adult opportunities?
