Blesswbb, all the best for the home visit tomorrow. We are on our final leg!
I think I'll have a mini celebration when we receive our dd's birth cert with my husband and my name as her parents! I think for all of us adoptive parents, seeing our names together with our child's name on a BC will mean more to us than to biological parents
iwantitvmuch, wow, sounds like bb is active if she can move so much while asleep. I read that active babies learn to roll over etc earlier. My dd doesn't move at all when she's asleep. Actually just like me, we wake up in the same position that we fall asleep in!
Drinking 5 oz and sleeping 11 - 4 is fantastic! I'm super envious. My 3 mth old still does 3hrly feeds on some nights!
Ellebaby - great news! Yes yes, go on holiday first! hahaha.
ABout being parents - Janella & Elle, you guys will be fine. I read somewhere that maternal instincts come naturally to women (that's why called instincts, i guess!). I don't think any parent (adoptive or biological) will ever say they think they make great parents. We will all learn together with our child on this parenting journey.
I enquired with Joyful Parenting (adoption agency) when I was waiting for my HSR to be approved and left my name with the agent, Francis. I missed his call ytd but he left me a voicemail asking if I had adopted yet and that he has a girl available for adoption at the moment. Thought i'll just share that with you in case any of you are interested to contact them to find out more.
