After ordering the birth certificate - Bradford Registry Office rang me back today to confirm some personal details and have told me the mothers name Now all I have to do is find the Mother !! FAN DABBY DOSEY !!!!! |

TJ I don't want to be a wet blanket, but please proceed with every caution now, and sit and think about all the various scenarios your friend might meet if she tries to make personal contact with her BM. If you type 'Adoption' into the search box on this board, you will get lots of hits, with much advice on how to proceed next - and other people's experiences. the first contact is of the utmost importance - you do not get a second chance. I hope all goes well for your friend and wish her a happy outcome. OC |

OC I hear what you say and i take heed of your very wise words and I totally agree with you..... We have to find the mother now ................. and then take it from there If we could just find the location of the mother that would help leaps and bounds Love TJ xxxx |

Thats FANTASTIC Tj. I am really really pleased for you. Please have a look at some of the Adoption threads on here though. There can be pitfalls in contacting Birth relatives..............it's an exciting time BUT it pays to be aware of what could happen. Regards Ann |

You could start by searching in the area where your friends Birth was registered. |
