Do you blog about adoption?

Question

I know there are a few of us on here that blog whether on a specific topic or across multiple topics. If you have a relationship with adoption, do you blog about adoption? Even if adoption is a topic that you sometimes touch upon, I'd love to see your links to the blog!

Answer 1

I do.  I really is about everything but deals a number of entries with adoption.

I will send you a link

Answer 2

I do blog about adoption.  

I used to touch upon it on my main blog, but then as I explored and learned more I realized I wanted to have a place where I could do that separately.

Before I started writing about it I was aware that adoption had affected me, but I wasn't able to get in touch with the depth of feelings I had about adoption.  I didn't WANT it to affect me.  I didn't want to be different.  

I think I've come to a place of peace about my adoption in part because I've read books, blogs, and have written about it.  If I hadn't opened myself up to those ideas and feelings, I would've been stuck in that unhealthy place of denial.

Answer 3

Yep, two of them

One that is centric to the Coleman adoption agency

The other began as my experiences turned to adoption legislation.

Answer 4

I blogged about our adoption process and our daughter's first year with us.

Answer 5

I blog (as you know!) in two places actually.. here are the links

Maryreunited.blogspot.com

and on LiveJournal

murry_duck is my journal.. there are some posts not available to the public, as certain readers I have are really stalkers and I have no need of them sticking their noses into my business with my daughter (this blog is mostly other stuff these days, but alot of the adoption related stuff is locked as it is about my daughter and my other kids)

I read your journal and I enjoy it very much, along with Gershom and Grummp.. there are tons of good blogs out there, including adoptive parent blogs of parents who really truly "get this stuff"

Answer 6

sure do!

Answer 7

I don't.  But it was finding blogs of other adoptees and first moms who helped me to know I was not alone in how I felt.

The adoption bloggers are the greatest people on the internet imho

Answer 8

i have a personal blog. but it's a mosh-posh of everything--work, home, life experience, kids, hubby...  i have posted a few entries about my adoption experience yet adoption is not the theme of the blog.

i'm thinking about starting a blog on facebook or blogher that just talks about my experience with my adoption plan... i'll give you the 411 when i find the time to do it.

Answer 9

I don't either, but many adoptees do:
