First Meeting

I know im a little late but how did things go with your meeting?? When we were matched my DH was out of town and my SW didnt want to wait for him to get back (gone 3 weeks) before we met with emom. So i went alone. I wouldnt advise it. It was a disaster. I was soooo nervous without DH there that i fumbled every question she asked, i thought forsure when i left that i had screwed it up so bad that she was going to pick another couple after that. Fortunetly, she understood i was nervous, as was she and we met again when my DH got back and things went really well and she still wants up to adopt the baby. I hope it went well for you, Rach

After talking with our home study social worker, we decided not to prepare questions to ask our efamily but rather allow the conversation to naturally flow. We really wanted to be active listeners and not focus on what questions still needed to be answered. We are very thankful that our visit went really really well. According to our social worker, no issues or concerns were raised. We plan to meet again in November to discuss the birth plan and the terms (expectations) of our open adoption. I am glad that your second visit went well and your emom has decided to place their child with your family.
