"Hi all...I'm new to this forum! I was adopted at birth and i am now 27. I would like to find my birthmother but i have no clue where to start..anyone have any advice??"

Starting a search for birth family can be a daunting task. How long will I search? Will I ever have the answers I need to feel whole? If and when I find my birthfamily, will there be acceptance or drama? All sides of the adoption triad may be filled with questions when approaching the task of an adoption search?

What tips or advice can you offer this forum member? Go to the forum to share or click "comments" below and share on the blog.
