Adoption

I can't speak to the adoption process myself, but as someone who was adopted (at birth) am happy to share my experience if it'd be helpful?

Following because I want to adopt too

Just to let you know all states have different regulations for the adoption/fostering stuff but I do know the cheapest route is to go through fostering to adoption. I haven't adopted but I have been doing about off research into it since it's something I want to do as well when we get stable enough. I knew all I had to do when I lived in Missouri but I have to relearn the regulations for Texas.

I adopted two kiddos here in San Diego, CA. Did it through the county foster program. It was quite painful but no where near as expensive as private adoption.
