Adoption Help And Support

For Adoptive Parents and Adoptive Parents to Be

Adoption Help & Support

Just like a pregnant mom has worries before giving birth to her new child, post-adoption jitters do exist too.

The adoption process is long, and daunting even a little frightening. There are often more unexpected hurdles to get over than one could ever anticipate.

It is so different than for an expecting couple. For a pregnant couple, there are no parenting courses that are required, you don’t have to prove that you are emotionally and physically stable, or that you have a clean bill of health.

A background check is not necessary, you don’t need lawyers, agencies or social workers to approve you. Nor are biological parents required to answer personal things about their history and present life.

Let's face it, the process of adoption is daunting and scary. As adoptive parents we could always use the support of others in the same situation while embarking on the adoption journey.

Share an Adoption Story or Share Your Knowledge

Every adoptive family has a story to tell. We want to hear yours! Have you captured a priceless moment from your journey on camera? Submit your story and pics.

Send in anything ranging from:

- the excitement of it all!

- getting your referral

- meeting your new child

- the problems

- frustrations

- the setbacks

* Did everything go smoothly or did it seem to take forever?

* What was involved for you and your family?

* Have a question?

I would also like to invite you to share your knowledge with new adoptive moms and dads, help them to get through the adoption process or give adoption advice.
