poachedegg Posted February 2, 2010 Author Share Posted February 2, 2010 awwwww, how lovely (but how sad that you have to foster a 2 month old baby ) cathy x I agree, she was actually 6 days old when she came to us. Apparently and very sadly in our LA at the moment there are a few newborns coming into the system. ......but this is a happy thread, so lets not go there!

This can be a happy thing though, as many of these unwanted babies get the chance to be adopted by people who really would love to have a child of their own but can't.

Ain't Nobody Here Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 How lovely This can be a happy thing though, as many of these unwanted babies get the chance to be adopted by people who really would love to have a child of their own but can't. I was going to say this too - I was fostered for 6 weeks as a tiny baby prior to adoption . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
