We adopted last fall. Our son's bmom gave very scant info on her medicals. Basically, I think she provided a few causes of death for some family members. We really don't have anything on the bfather.
I've been very worried about allergies, so when he had a moderate reaction a few weeks ago, I contacted the agency who was fortunately able to contact with his bmom. She was able to tell me that there are no known allergies with her, her other children or the bfather. I was so grateful to get that info!
I believe her decision to place or choice of agency was fairly last-minute, so there wasn't a lot of time for her to fill out forms in counseling session, and she was very ready to leave the hospital after the birth. I think that may be one reason why we dont' have more info. I just pray that we'll always be able to get in contact w/ her in some way through the years if we have an emergency need for info.
