I adopted my daughter at an older age (4-1/2), so she knew her bio-mother ("C"). They stayed in contact quite awhile after the adoption was finalized. We have lost total contact with C but did manage to get a pretty complete medical history before C disappeared. I can't imagine being hurt by my daughter wanting to know her bio-mom -- her heart is big enough to love both of us and should she ever want to talk to C again, I'll do my best to help my daughter locate her.
For those looking for their biological parents, I wish them nothing but the best. I can only imagine how painful it must be to not know your medical history or why you were put up for adoption. Much love to all those involved.
