Today, I met my biological parents for the first time. Their justification for giving me up for adoption was that I wasn't conceived at the ideal time for them. Apparently, the ideal time was six months after the adoption, when they conceived the first of my two brothers. FML

I'm guessing you got a better deal with your adoptive parents!

Well then your probably better off without then anyway.

Yes, they think 6months later was the right time for them, you do realized that is 1 year and 3 months (9-10 months of pregnancy) more for them to actually be prepared for a kid. I think it's fair of them to put you in better hands (else that's what they believe was right at time). So just live a better life as they expect or wanted you to. Yes your life is a little ****** because you found out but you have another pair of parents that loves you. So be glad.

Woah, how the fudge did that end up there. I thought I posted this to a different comment... Hehe, sorry~

I call fake cuz of the six months. Normally you are pregnant for 9 months, and the chances of getting pregnant again (in the case of 6 months) directly after giving birth, ceasar insection or not, are very slim.

My aunt had 3 kids in less than three years, its possible. Though its not the best thing for you.

Really? My oldest daughter was born March 31st, 2011 and I got pregnant in the middle of July 2011 (about 4 months difference) and had my second daughter 9 days after her sister's first birthday (April 9, 2012). AND I was breastfeeding exclusively. It definitely happens more than you would think.

The parents gave birth, then the brother was conceived 6 months later. It's possible.

and whose fault is it for "conceiving you before the ideal time"?

how is it that none of these people understand the word conceived?

"I wasn't conceived at the ideal time for them. Apparently, the ideal time was six months after that, when they conceived the first of my two brothers."

"Six months LATER", as in six months after the adoption process. It could be worded more explicitly, but you'd think people would have enough brain cells to do the ******* math.

"I wasn't born at the ideal time for them. Apparently, the ideal time was six months later, when they conceived the first of my two brothers." It's not too difficult to reword and figure out, but you'd think people would have enough brain cells to communicate more ******* clearly.

Yeah. Don't worry though, mate. I'm sure the OP's deeply remorseful and sorry that you had to go out of your way to whine and act as if it's a big deal and all that.

You're acting as if it's reasonable to expect people to take clues from what you've said to discover that you mean something other than what you actually said. Are you my wife? I wasn't whining, I was answering OGReaper's question.

Obviously the people who understand. you know who you are. there are however more people erroneously responding, than there are people who actually understand it.

I don't understand how people can put YDI, that's just horrible OP:( people can be so cruel. All I can say is parents aren't the ones who gave birth to you, their the ones who raised you and gave you all their love

If your adopting parents are good people, you are probably better off with them than those illogical people.

Shit like this makes you wonder if meeting your biological parents after they gave you up for adoption is worth it. I never read a happy adoption reunion. Im sure they happen, but most seem negative and over shadow the positive reunions.

liar! takes 9 months not 6.

Alright, for all the dumb-asses posting here calling fake because of the words "six months", you apparently all need to learn to read. The OP states that the brother was CONCEIVED six months later, not born. Last I checked, conceived means that the mother became pregnant, not popped the kid out. And for the record, it is very possible to get pregnant six months after giving birth, in fact, depending on the specific woman's hormones and cycles, she could get pregnant within 4-6 weeks after giving birth if chance plays that card. A cousin of mine was conceived a mere two months after his sister was born, so get your facts straight before calling the OP an idiot. Agreed with most comments though, that really sucks OP, I would be pretty upset as well. If they weren't ready for a child, no matter the situation, they shouldn't have been having sex. And if you're not mature enough to know that sex makes babies, you shouldn't be having it in the first place. But at least you (hopefully) have had a decent life with your adoptive parents, because they went through the procedures and whatnot of adopting you, so they at least obviously wanted you and that's one thing to be thankful for. :)

Exactly. I gave birth to my daughter March 31st, 2011 and got pregnant mid-July. I had my second daughter just 9 days after my oldest's first birthday (April 9th, 2012). And I was breastfeeding exclusively.
