If you’re thinking about how to start an open adoption in Arizona, you need to work with a local adoption agency. The adoption process can be complicated, but an adoption agency makes it simple.
Knowing this, your first question might be: Are there any adoption agencies near me? Where can I find an adoption agency near me to get started?
What is An Open Adoption?
Open adoption is a type of adoption where birth mothers and adoptive parents can stay in touch even after the placement is over. As a mother, you will decide how much contact you want with the adoptive family throughout your pregnancy and after the baby is placed with the adoptive family. An open adoption can be very open, where a mother can have visits with her child. On the other hand, an open adoption can be a semi-open adoption, where you will get updates of your child but will not have visits with them.
Benefits of Open Adoption
There are numerous benefits to open adoption.
- You can see your child grow and meet their developmental milestones.
- You can continue to share your medical information that may benefit the baby’s pediatrician in an open adoption.
- The child can also have visits with you, the birth mother if you choose open adoption.
- Open adoption allows your child the incredible ability of having a relationship with both sets of parents: adopted and biological.
Remember, one goal of open adoption is the benefit of communication and an ongoing relationship.
