yes there are many domestic and some international agencies that allow single mothers to adopt. you will have to jump through all the hoops as other prospective adoptive parents, financial, emtional, etc...take the time now to educate youreself about every aspect of adoption. learn state, national and local laws. research many agencies and ask lots of questions. hire an attorney that works for you and protects your interests. because it won't just be your heart that breaks it will be the hearts of your children. take this time to talk about and educate your children on what an adopted brother or sister means. make sure they understand birthmother's deciding to parent, falling throughs, and that this will very much be their REAL brother or sister. education and being as prepared as one can be is the best you can do. good luck to whatever you choose to do.

yes. I am a single mom and if dont' find a man that I feel is right for us, I will adopt another baby or toddler in about 7 more years. I think Thiland is one of the current countries that adopt to single people.

i do not imagine she'd imagine any a lot less of your spouse, she's all she has elementary as a mom after all. it really is extra in all probability that she'd have a tough time accepting that a number of those memories that you tell her and each and each and every of the images that you teach her are of her absolutely mom. that is a very confusing element to target to mind-set and do contained in the great way. possibly you and your spouse ought to exploit assembly with a bereavement counsellor (or similar) who must be able to recommend you at elementary tactics to flow about doing this, step through step contained in the finest, straightforward and helpful way. good success!
