Adoption

Agency Questions

Hi Everyone! I am very new to the message boards, and to the whole world of adoption in general. My husband and I suffered years of primary IF and then by the grace of God were blessed with a little boy right after having an HSG. We always knew that we wanted more than one child bc my husband and I have such close relationships with our sibling and it is such a rewarding part of our lives. So we started trying again after having our little boy and things didn't go very well. Two and a half years + later we have been through surgery, IF treatments, etc and have decided to look into adoption. 

I am wondering if anyone here has ever dealt with the Gladney Agency and whether or not they recommend them? We know a few couples who have adopted through them and they all say they had great experiences. I was just wondering if anyone out there has heard anything positive or negative about them, before we jump in with both feet!

  • Hi and welcome.

    No experience with Gladney, but I think a few people at least contacted them. Hopefully they will chime in. You may want to check out the FAQs as well so see if there are any resources there that can help you,

    As for your avatar, click on your current one and it should take you to your profile page. There should be a place that says "Change Avatar/Signature". Click on that and you can add your own picture or choose one from The Bump.

    GL!

  • Both of my daughters are "Gladney babies" through the domestic program (3 years old and 5 months old)  and, after using them twice, I can tell you that Gladney is FANTASTIC. I would be happy to share our experiences as well as our list of pros and cons and answer any specific questions you might have.  Feel free to PM me with your e-mail address if you would like more information.  In the meantime, my quick answer is "jump in with both feet and you won't be disappointed".  Smile Good luck!

  • Thank you so much! I just sent you a message!

  • I don't have any experience with Gladney but they came highly recommended to me by 3 others. I've only heard good things. Good luck!
