Okay...so you were not looking for this situation. I understand that you are still grieving for the little one that did not get placed with you, but I also believe that everything happens for a reason. I've had 2 contested adoptions...while is was difficult, I grew and learned and wouldn't change anything.
I also adopted a newborn from Florida (not one of the contested ones). At that time consent was signed at 24hrs and irrevocable. I do believe that is has changed and is now 72hrs. I'd inquire about private foster care and wait to travel until everything is signed. We stayed for 6 days for ICPC. I used a lawyer in Tampa.
Best of luck to you!
