IVF ladies - look away
I know that will tempt most of them to keep looking. friends of ours have recently been through two lots of ivf with both failing. they've decided that it is enough and to look at adoption. my question is, does anyone know anyone they can talk to? or any information at all? they had been on the list to adopt my cousin's baby, but that all fell through (loooooooong story). so heartbroken for them, but they seem so strong. |

A friend of mine put her baby up for adoption 11 years ago, and went thru her GP. She had an open adoption agreement and sees her son on a regular basis, he is the legal child of his parents though.
My parents went thru social welfare what cyfs now is to adopt my brother and me, they did it thru one of the nursing homes for single mothers. ie Bethany etc. Suggestion would be to contact their GP and/or CYFS. ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">   [/url] Angel June 2012 |

get them to contact CYFS who will take them via a course and put them on the list....yes i know CYFS have a bad name but they have an adoption dept that dealswith local and international adoptions where they will get preapproval...
Open home now is mainly permanent placement (kids removed via cyfs for the long term) and foster homes. They do some adoptions but mainly now from the above... |
