Krista, you should call a private agency or a lawyer (who does adoptions) and explain your situation to them. A reputable agency or lawyer will want to meet with the bmom and spend some time counselling her...this should be free to her. They will help her to think about things she may not have worked through yet. But for you guys, it can be this easy. The state of California does require a homestudy but depending upon how soon the baby is due will determine if you have to complete it before or after the baby is due. If you can complete the homestudy before the baby is due, the period that the bmom can change her mind is shorter than if you finish the homestudy after the baby is born.
Make sense??? We've adopted twice through a private agency and lawyer.
