[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 246642, member: 1991"] That sounds like a really good outcome, especially considering your ealier concerns when birth-mother seemed to be cutting off contact. I do wonder about birth-mother's current husband and his negativity over it - it could simply be that he's afraid of wither sharing her, or of her getting hurt through this process, because as your counsellor said, so often these contacts don't go well. He needs time to be reassured that this won't make for bad, dreastic change in his life. Also, depending on how effective he is in trying to control his world, there may be times when you leave messages wtih him and he may not pass them on. Or he may simply be concerned for his wife but willing to let her take the lead. Marg [/QUOTE]
