What Happens Afterwards?

It is normal to go through a grieving time after being separated from your child and after you have followed through with an adoption plan. This may be the time you need the support and sympathetic ear of your counselor the most.

It is important to realize that your feelings are normal and have little to do with your continued belief that adoption is the best plan for you and your baby. You will have ups and downs. You have been through a tremendous experience that will have changed you forever. Although it is a difficult experience, it will provide you with an opportunity for personal growth.

We understand adoption is not just a one-time decision, but a lifetime experience. Should you make an adoption plan through CFS, our commitment to you is ongoing. It is common for us to still be in contact with birthparents who made adoption plans years ago. Caring relationships are most often developed. You can be assured of our commitment to be a resource to you throughout the years.
