Adoption journey

[LolaM]

sorry--its been hectic around here as well, with holidays coming and the incompetence of CPS workers...we have baby boy until Jan 31st, when it will be decided where he will live. It seems inevitable that BM will lose her kids, so its a matter of baby living with his sibs and "grampa" or with us, as he has been here since he was 3 months old and will be nearly 1 when we go back to court...they wonder why there are 100,000 kids waiting to be adopted...its a REAL hum-dinger of a mystery! Today in national adoption day...I wish we had better news...

Lolly it's my revenge because you made me cry a couple of months ago lol!

 

[Loski83]

Lola hopefully you get good news in January. Dream congratulations so happy for you best of luck for wednsday can't wait to read your message. Thankyou for the support for my husband we have to pay the recovery bill and storage bill for his bike and insurance won't pay up till we have other drivers details so hoping the police manage to track drive down or they have a guilty conscience, fingers crossed. Not much happening this end other than hospital visits so sorry if I don't come on much I will be thinking of you all x

 

[LolaM]

FINALLY DREAM!!! How exciting, now you must buy everything BLUE!

 

[dreamofabean]

lol Lola! I certainly will be

Little pink is little!! 2nd percentile for height and 25th for weight! But health visitor was very pleased with development so all good there. Little pinks social worker has also visited. She is also very happy with progress but did say they strongly suspect birth mum is pregnant again. It is a lot to take in less than two months into placement...

 

[drudai]

That would be pretty exciting though, Lolly! 2 under 2... Haha.

 

[karenh]

Dream that is awesome! Yay! You little boy will be coming home soon!

Loski I hope they catch the driveer soon. I also really hope your husband keeps healling quickly.

Lolly, I am glad that little girl is doing well and eveyone can see that! How crazy that BM might be pregnant again. Do you think you will adopt that baby as well?

AFM, nothing on the adoption front, but my Uncle passed away Sunday. I will be traveling for his funeral this coming weekend. Also, Saturday is DH and my 7th anniversary.

 

[Lolly1985]

Because she confided in her social worker she had missed a period and has since gone off radar. The exact same series of events as her pregnancy with little pink. It's only the feeling of social services at this stage, but they have known her for a long time and I do expect they are right. Cross that bridge as and when we come to it. Whether it's now, next year or in a few. But it will happen at some stage. Just don't want it quite yet!

 

[dreamofabean]

Loski I hope they find the driver soon, how scary!
Oh my gosh lolly! That's a real curved ball! Eek! Xx

 

[aimze]

Wow lolly!!! How crazy, why do these people continue to get pregnant again an again!

Karen my thoughts are with your family and you...I hope you're all coping as well as can x

 

[Lolly1985]

I think where is the cut off point? If she is pregnant and if we did have baby what about when number 3 comes along after that. And there are of course the four older siblings already. Birth mother is still in her twenties, it's a big worry really xxx
