Man, there are a lot of buttons in this navigation bar! This page is your handy-dandy guide to finding out what’s where on this site.
Adoption Stories – a page of stories from other BTDT moms. You’ll find something to laugh about, cry about and be inspired by here.
Ask the Adoption Doulas – our advice column. Because what’s the fun of having a website if we can’t give out free advice?? Got a question for the Adoption Doulas? Email it to missy@adoptingmamas.com.
Birthparents – stories by and about those people without whom adoption would not be possible – the birth parents.
Glossary – *our* definitions of common adoption terms and some of the abbreviations we use on this site. Like BTDT (been there, done that).
Ladies in Waiting – tips and tricks for surviving the wait. It can be a long time between deciding to adopt and bringing your child home. This section will help you get through it with your sanity in check.
Miscellaneous – sometimes a topic or post or article just doesn’t fit anywhere else. In that case, it goes here.
Mommyhood – stories about what life looks like on this side of parenthood. This is where most of our general blog topics go, because we’re living it day-to-day and it’s pretty top of mind for us. Usually pretty funny too.
News – adoption is in the news all the time. Here you’ll find opinion pieces, links, and some plain old reporting on what’s new in adoption.
Reviews – we’re opinionated and we know what we like. This will be our definitive (?) list of the books, toys, games, movies, etc. that are just plain great.
Shopping – and once you know what you like, we’ve got a portal through which to purchase it! All proceeds go to supporting the site.
The Mavens – more interesting than an about page, no?
