Ladies,

The subject of time off came up as a result of an agency I looked at that required that the adoptive parent take off 3 months when the child was placed with them. This would have been a domestic infant adoption.

I would just like to get a feel for what people are taking:

Did you adopt an infant or older child?
How long did you take off from work?
Did your agency have a requirement?
Did you think that the amount of time you took off was enough?

I'd love to hear your answers.
