So Jess is pretty confident she's nailed this.
Let sleeping dogs lie.
A message urging her to stop asking questions, to call off her search for her biological father.
And Jess tells me she understands the risk, that answers may come at a cost.
She knows those ripples are about to disturb the calm surface of another family.
And what she's learnt from contacting her birth mother is that she can't control what happens next.
But she still has this void at the start of her life.
Jess gives it a few weeks before going on Facebook, and rather than contacting her possible father, she messages his five adult children.
They all seem to live in the same town as their father, the same town where Jennifer grew up.
It's a couple of hundred miles north of Jess.
It must be so surreal to be looking on Facebook at the profiles of people and you have such a secret that is going to burst into their lives.
She keeps the message deliberately vague.
She tells them she's researching her ancestry and she thinks they may be able to help.
Only one of them replies.
The eldest, Adam.
And straight away, he seems to know exactly what Jess is looking for.
Adam's into family history, so he's already done his DNA.
But he's used a different company, not the ancestry site that Jess is on.
So now Jess orders a new kit.
Once again, a small vial of her saliva is sealed and mailed.
