As an adult adoptee from a closed adoption, the decision to search—or not search—for one’s birth mother is a deeply personal choice.

If you’re an adult adoptee feeling a longing to find your birth mother and connect with her, ask yourself if you are willing to take the risk of rejection or disappointment to potentially gain an amazing connection with her and other birth relatives.

If you've made the decision to go ahead and find your biological mom, these are some steps on how to find her:

• Gain access to your original birth certificate and other adoption records
• Research her on social media (if you have your birth mother’s name or identifying information)
• Talk to your adoptive parents about what they know and assess their willingness to help you
• Try to find members of your extended birth family who might be able to help
• Search reunion registries (websites for reuniting adult adoptees with their birth parents)
• Take a DNA test and look for genetic matches
• Get professional help from a private investigator or genetic genealogy company
