10 months is a VERY long time to get fingerprints back. We are in Sacramento area, but our agency seriously had them 2 days after we did them. We are in the process of adopting a sib set of 4 through foster care. We are using a private agency, affiliated with the county. But, if I was pregnant we probably would not have been allowed to be placed. It did happen to a friend who went through the same agency, but it is rare to place a child (children) with a pregnant mom. Good luck.
