surrogate
she was giving birth, a surrogate mother, to a rich childless couple. she had been instructed to not look at the baby, did and relented, she had given birth
a wonderful newborn how could she give it away?
sensible people told her it was for the best, the child would get a good education, she the mother could not give her.
Under pressure by the righteous, she gave the baby away
but she will forever regret her decision.

This perked my interest since the tags placed on this leads me to believe the 'birth mother' is also the 'biological mother, and not a gestational surrogate, hence the feeling of loss and anger.
Either way, I felt compelled to respond with my personal thoughts on the subject. and hope you will receive it as friendly feedback, as it is my intention.
Regardless of which situation produces the child, I feel all parties involved should understand beforehand the possible ramifications of such decisions, and prior agreements are acceptable to all.
As to the child, I strongly believe the 'birth mother' should in some fashion be included in the child's life, and child be informed of his/her manner of birth when old enough to understand. Likewise, I would hope the parties are mature enough to at least reach some compromise if and when future situations arise which have a direct bearing on the wellbeing of the child.
