Infertility and Adoption

Many individuals and couples who have experienced infertility eventually decide to form a family through adoption. Most happily conclude that adoption is not a second best option to having a biological child, it is simply a different one. Adoptive parents are more successful if they have worked through their grief and loss around their infertility and come to view adoption in a positive way, before attempting to adopt a child.

Some adoption experts and many adoption agencies are reluctant to progress an adoption application if they are aware that an individual or couple are still engaged in infertility treatment.

If you would like more information on infertility and adoption please visit our articles section and contact Jennifer Hillman of the Vancouver Infertility Peer Support Group by calling 
604-320-7330 or emailing jhillman@bcadoption.com.
