I took full care of a friends baby from the time he was born until the day he was adopted. During her pregnancy and after his birth I was to adopt him. However, she changed her mind and found a family out of state. I had to hand over my baby. It is an open adoption and we all had an agreement. The birth mother and I would both receive pics on a regular updates. Now the adoptive mother doesn’t want to send anything directly to me. She sends doubles to the birth mother and I am to get them from her. The birth mother wants nothing to do with the baby. What if anything can I do? Is it ok for me to send him x-mas and bday presents? I love this child more than anything and all I want is to have some type of contact with the family. It was our original agreement when the adoption took place. Please help. Any advice would be great. Thank You

I don’t have any good advise for you, sorry.
I am just wondering how you know that ‘The birth mother wants nothing to do with the baby’
If the adoption has just occurred(re:this year) she is likely in alot of pain and will want something to do with her baby at a later date.
Seems like to me that you did something very unselfish, you took care of a friends baby. You did not say how long you did take care of the baby, or how long this first mom has been a friend of yours. I am mostly confused by you post because it is so vague.
It is very kind of you to want to know how the ‘baby’ is doing.
