[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op I havent done this myself but I I know someone who does it.
Our DD is adopted and we used an agency here in the US. Because the birth mothers in MD have 30 days to change their mind, The agency will sometimes place the baby with a foster parent for the 30 days. This is to avoid the adoptive mother getting attached then having to give the baby back.
In our case, the birth mother didnt have a plan until she was in the hospital. So the agency too the baby into care, then got all her paperwork started. We had 8 days notice to adopt DD but she was 30 days when we got her.
The person who took care of her looks after several babies a year, usually for up to a month. There are not many appointments per say but she does have to be avail at short notice.[/quote]

Same PP here, forgot to add, Our DD is now 4 and we are in touch with her foster Mom on facebook. We invited her to DD's baptism ( she came) and went to visit last summer, she is a part of DD's story. I dont think she stays in touch with all the babies but I think its neat she did with us.[/quote]
