Today we interview Shannon Shepherd, a birth mother and friend of Sarah’s. She talks about her experience placing her child in an open adoption. We talk about the nuances of open adoption and how that term can mean different things for each person. We discuss bonding between adopted parents and child, and how uncommon adoption is compared to abortion, despite the fact that adoption does not come with the same regret. We also talk about topics such as dealing with stigma and disappointment, as well as how to contribute to a healthy situation for both families. Shannon tells more of her story of how she came to her decision, including how she worked through counseling and sought legal advice. We also talk about Shannon’s experience with birth and postpartum after deciding to place her child.
