Re: Registery question????

  • That's a sticky situation.  I would personally advise against it because what happens if (God forbid) the adoption plans fall through?  Or if you never have children of your own.  I would think someone close to you may throw you a baby shower when the time comes.

    <div>Don't do it - the marriage and the adoption/fostering are two completely separate events.  You can always have a "baby welcoming party" or something once the adoption is final to celebrate your new child.</div>

  • Yeah, I would venture a guess that people will want to throw some kind of a baby shower/welcoming party when you do adopt. Asking for baby stuff now is kind of weird.

    You could register for things like extra blankets, bath towels, dishes, glassware, etc. Things you'll need when you have a full house, you know? That would help, but it wouldn't be specifically for your kids.
