What they DON'T tell you on prep groups!

This is a blog of the things we have learned as a new adoptive Mum and Dad to three children under the age of five. For 'Mum' you can read 'Dad' and 'parent'. It is also a record of some of the things no-one told us on the prep groups. Some of it is what children get up to in general and some of it is adoption-specific. Regardless, it should be an interesting read for any parent, prospective and adoptive. Feel free to add your comments, which I shall publish.

Being an adoptive Mum is...

...MamaVegas telling me on the Adoption UK message boards that "just trying to say, feeling like you have made the biggest mistake of your life (even if you daren't tell anyone because that's all you have gone on about for the last x years) is normal.  Feeling overwhelmed with three children and wishing you had just had one is completely normal and being honest about how you are feeling with someone is essential."
