Yes, CA has a 30-day revocation period but if you are going through an agency, the pbmom can opt to sign to waive that time period. We've adopted X 2 in CA and our son's bmom was emotionally ready to sign the waiver and our youngest dd's bmom was not able emotionally. CA does expect pbmom's to wait 5-7 days to sign relinquishments but sometimes they sign earlier but the form just isn't filed 'til the 5-7 day timeperiod. Yes, the waiting time can be hard, but if you are aiming at an open adoption, it's a wonderful time to get to know one another and for shared OB visits. Best of luck! susan
