She was adopted as a baby from El Salvador and now wants to adopt from there as well. She has one child currently, a boy who is amonth older than my DD.

Knowing that there is such a wonderful group of experienced mommies here, I was wondering if you could offer any time frames and advice to her as she starts her journey.

Anything is helpful!

TIA!

Maddy - walking finally!

I know this is a late but I hope your friend has been finding some helpful information from some where. Because of adoption rules in El Salvador, very few children are actually adopted out of the country into the USA these days. 16 in fiscal year 2004

Wishing her success on her journey and perhaps if that country doesn't work out for her she will still find herself on an adoption journey
