No medical records of living people are confidential. Adoption records are usually sealed and very difficult to research, unless the biological parents gave approval prior to adoption for the child to have access to that information.

Basically you are beating a dead horse type issue. If she will not even deny of confirm that she had another child you will probably never know

No you can't view your mothers medical records, they are private..................

Your mind is likely in over drive and trying to make sense of what you see 'her skipping the subject' but it may not be an adoption and even if it is, she is not ready to tell you...that is her right and you have to learn to accept that............ and until she is ready IF it is what you think you are going to have to wait........

You know your mum, you know what you can say and not, but if you feel she is skipping the subject the way I would deal with it is be direct, ask and if she skips the subject, repeat the original question, listen and if she does it again, repeat the original question and continue to repeat, giving her the respect of listening each time.......it then makes it clear this is the only question you want answering, you hear it all the time in TV interviews especially when they are interviewing politicians who would rather not answer certain things.............

No you can't and your mom might skip the subject for other reasons.

She might have tried and the baby miscarried or die shortly after birth due to medical problems.

In other words she doesn't want to talk about it because it's clearly a sore topic. So my advice is quit asking about it.
