I received no money for expenses during my pregnancy (I had health insurance and lived with my parents) (I'm a bmom), and only found out last month (almost 10 years later) that the aparents paid for bmother expenses (perhaps it's standard). The aparents and I never discussed money during my pregnancy.
The aparents adopted two more times (my birthdaughter was their first child) and used a private attorney instead of an agency - to the tune of substantial savings.
However, they are not mad at me for any adoption fees they paid - I certainly never made a profit - or wanted to.
I did not receive counseling from the agency either. The agency came to my house once, when I informed them I was considering adoption (they came the next day!), after that they phoned me regularly (to check), I went to the agency once to look through profile books, and they came to the hospital with paperwork when my daughter was born.
