The options and choices are always yours.

 

Adoption Insight needs to first receive proof of pregnancy and get a completed intake form from you.  We will first look at your due date and the other information on your intake form to determine the order of importance to you in all matters. Someone from Adoption Insight will call you and arrange further follow up per your requests. We always give priority calls to BirthMothers. Adoption Insight will work with you from your location or in circumstances requested by the BirthMother, we will assist BirthMothers in relocation. 

 

 

 

Sample condo has 2 bedrooms and a bath upstairs, living room, dining, kitchen and laundry down stairs

 

BirthMothers need rest and quiet time to reflect as well as a lack of interruptions into their limited time to plan for the future.  Adoption Insight wants you to be as comfortable in an environment of your choosing as is possible within the limits of the law and circumstances.

 

The accommodations may be an apartment or condo which you can feel free to make home. Some BirthMothers even find employment and choose to stay once the adoption relinquishments have been signed. Many BirthMothers have used the time wisely and continue on with plans they made while awaiting the birth.

 

The needs of BirthMothers such as maternity clothing, food, utilities, phone or communication, medical attention, counseling and transportation are all arranged through Adoption Insight according to specific needs once many choices have been presented and made by the BirthMother.

 

In an effort to respect the privacy and in some cases the security of some BirthMothers Adoption Insight does not show or reveal actual locations of where BirthMothers may reside. It is completely up to the BirthMother to inform family or friends of all contact information and well being once in the arrangement with Adoption Insight.

 

BirthMothers have no real restrictions other than those advised by medical professionals and cautions necessary for the health and well being of herself and child. Adoption Insight will require that resources available to the BirthMother be for her only and as agreed to for a BirthFather or BirthMother's other children prior to entering into an arrangement for assistance. Every effort is made to acquaint BirthMothers with the community and resources available to them during their stay.  

 

BirthMothers are introduced to the medical professionals and facilities that will care for them and the child through the time of birth.  Detailed medical information is taken and necessary appointments and follow up care are scheduled.  Sometimes there is a request for a drug screening which you are free to decline.  Be aware that for your safety and the safety of the child doctors caring for you may need to know and do testing for drugs and STDs.  Your medical records are always regarded as private.  State and Federal Laws require medical records be regarded as private.

 

Adoption Insight will not release any information that is not allowed by law in the adoption process or specifically authorized by you the BirthMother.  Potential adopting couples generally want as much information as possible about the health of the BirthMother and infant. Many couples will request a drug screen prior to making a commitment to a Birthmother.  Drug screening of BirthMothers has been advised to couples by attorneys, medical professionals and others they have come in contact with in this process.  Submitting to a drug screen sometimes makes the adoption screening process quicker and allows BirthMothers additional choices of couples that make this testing a requirement of their choices. The drug screening however, is always a choice and not a requirement of a BirthMother.

 

Adoption Insight will request a medical release form from BirthMothers in order to best advise you in you adoption plan and medical professionals available to you. Adoption Insight will also act as an intermediary for you with potential adopting couples.  This is for your protection and privacy interacting with potential adopting couples prior to making a specific choice of adopting couples.

 

BirthMothers are also free to request a form for limited release of medical information.  This form tells all medical professionals accessing your records exactly what information and how much of it can be released to specific individuals. If you are wanting or allowing an individual or additional medical facility or insurance company access to your medical records please make sure AdoptionInsight is aware of this so every effort will be made to ensure your desires are met and provide you with any forms or assistance needed.

 

Each BirthMother has a unique set of circumstances and needs.  Adoption Insight responds to each BirthMother's needs in a unique manner.  The options are as unique and varied as the circumstances that present themselves. AdoptionInsight pledges to you the BirthMothers to do everything within our power and the law to make this experience one of preferences chosen by you, as medically safe and comfortable as possible.

 

 

Adoption Insight will meet with you (BirthMother) and discuss your needs as well as present profiles to you of couples matching criteria requested by you.  If a BirthMother feels Adoption Insight can meet her needs, and a family can be chosen from the Adoption Insight resources, interview conference phone calls are set up with potential couples wanting to adopt.  Many conference phone calls will be scheduled throughout the process till the child arrives. The BirthMother is also free to limit or request additional conference resources at anytime in order to be comfortable in the decision to adopt or meet her own emotional needs.

 

When a Birth Mother chooses to relocate there are temporary living accommodations required.  Some BirthMothers have other children that need accommodations as well. Since no two situations are the same we maintain different accommodations to meet the needs of the BirthMothers.  There are times a BirthMother may be in hotel accommodations near a hospital or birthing center for a brief time. In special circumstances a BirthMother may choose to stay briefly with the family chosen for the adoption.  Generally we do not have BirthMothers stay in college dorm type facilities.

 

                                        Adoption Insight does business exclusivly as an adoption facilitation service as defined by the California Family Code.  Adoption Insight is not a California Adoption Agency.
