Multiple Children

I do not know what agency you are going through but please do not get discouraged. I did a lot of research of different agencies/facilitators/attorneys before we adopted Abby. I wanted to make sure that I would be working with someone who was/is comfortable presenting our family with confidence to perspective bioparents even though we had 2 children already. (One bio and one adopted) I think that there are many, many different types of potential birthparents, just as there are every combination of adoptive parents. We did not have any problems being matched with Abbys biomom J. She felt that our current children at the time would just add to the love and adoration that Abby receives. She was absolutely right too by the way. Abby smiles and squeals the most when her brother and sister are talking to her. Please know that your baby will be out there, put it in G-d's hands and you will be matched and ultimately adopt. Best of luck on your adoption journey!! Also the more races, ethnicities, sex of child, drug exposure, ect you are open to also increases your "chances" of being matched sooner. By the way we signed with facilitator 9/01/03, matched with J 12/15/03, and Abby was born 1/30/04!!
Sincerely,
