Such a great perspective on this, thanks for sharing your story. We’re currently in the waiting phase following approval (feels like it’s taking forever!) but know it will be so worth it in the end. We’ve come to adoption following baby loss in the hope of turning a tragic experience into something amazing. Hearing your positive spin just further supports the idea for me that adoption is fab and doesn’t always need to have a negative spin attached to it 😊
Thanks so much for your comment & for sharing that. I’m really glad this video could help ☺️ Check out my video on adoption after baby loss as we experienced similar and craved a positive experience x
Molly I just stumbled across your channel as we are embarking on our adoption journey ! We have been approved and now are in the waiting phase! Thank you so much for sharing, I am so excited already but this has only amplified my excitement a thousand fold! How long did you guys wait for your match post approval?
Congratulations on becoming approved! That’s very exciting. We had our little man home within two months of being approved. I go into more detail about it in my ‘UK Adoption Story’ video 🥰
In the very initial stage of my journey, trying to decide if adoption is the right thing for us. Loving your videos! Really helpful - offering something real, different and positive. So many American adoption links that just show the highlights and don’t actually answer any questions. Keep up the amazing work, you are really changing peoples lives x
Hello, how old was your son when you adopted him? Please carry on these videos. I am looking into adoption and these video are so informative and helpful!!. ❤️
Thank you for sharing this, it’s such an important view point as there always seems to be so much focus on what adoptive parents will be missing. So looking forward to hearing more of your story x
Thanks Rosey! You're right. There is often so much stigma around 'missing out' as an adoptive parent and I think this contributes to why it can be perceived negatively. We would have missed out on so much if we hadn't adopted!

Hey! Thank you! My husband and I had a matching criteria for the 0-2 range so he was younger ☺️
