Great link...Loss after Loss
A4everFamily.org - Loss After Loss
This is a great piece...talks about fear of abandonment...which is something common in many adult adoptees. I do see little windows of this in my children...both of the them...the one who struggled to attach and the one who breezed through the transition. Anyone care to discuss?

This was a great site!! As someone in the waiting list, I am trying to read up on as much information as possible. The article you mentioned was great - and there were a lot of great tips on the links.
I have read some blogs of recently home families trying to follow the 6-week only mom/dad hold the baby routine and wasn't able to find any details about it. This article had those specific tips in it... and it really sounds, while challenging, worth a try! Thanks!!

Bingo! It was the clue that broke the case.
“Debra, I think Lindsey was waiting for you to come back and wash your hands together.” Debra’s expression revealed she was baffled. This is my 4 year old daughter to a T. Home at 5 months and easily attached.
