Adoption Agencies in Los Angeles

As you can see from my sig - I've been to hell and back with fertility treatments over the past 2 years. I'm not 'done' or 'giving up' on trying to conceive our own biological child. We still have 9 frosties waiting for us to transfer. Meanwhile, DH and I are currently researching the adoption route as well.

The information is overwhelming - just as it was with our early assisted fertility beginnings, That said, I am determined to digest it all and come to a decision as to which agency to work with fairly soon. This, is what seems like the hardest part.

We initially both though international was our
preference but it seems now that open domestic adoption may be the way to go.

Looking for any advice, recommendations, referrals
on Los Angeles agencies.

I live in the central valley in California. I looked at Adoption Network but I did not like the internet approach. I then found a facilitator was the way I wanted to go. If you want her name I will PM it to you. I really liked her. She advertises in the yellow pages which I thought was a better way to find birth mothers.

Let me know..
