[quote=Anonymous]Understand healthy is relative. We thought we were getting healthy and while our child is an absolute joy and we would have taken him either way, he has lots of developmental and other needs. Often birthparents are not honest about prenatal care and family background or just don't know. Do both. We did two agencies and were with them several years and neither had anything to offer us but were happy to take our money. We also tried facilitator (I would not recommend it). We also did private on/off for several years and finally got a placement through private. If you want an open adoption and better control over things private is far better. If you want a closed or semi-open with lots of support, then agency is better. Its pure luck and timing and how much are you willing to spend.[/quote]
