If you got into this to adopt, have adopted.... - Adoption.com Forums

We got to adopt our first placement of a preemie newborn that we took home from the hospital. However, it took 3 years and we adopted two others before his adoption was finalized. Our agency knew we wanted to adopt and our placement worker did a great job sending us those likely placements.

They never know for sure, of course. We had two other placements that lasted less than a week. Our other that we adopted were pretty easy cases. There were a few times that it looked like they might not stay, but those things didn't pan out.

So we adopted our first placement after 3 years, our second placement was here three days, adopted our third placement after 15 months, our fourth was here for 4 days, and then adopted our fifth placement after 14 months.
