1. Heartfelt Couples have first choice of all available birth mothers.  Your birthmother letter will be presented to the birthmothers of your choice and you then select  from the birthmothers that choose you first.  A full disclosure of information will assist you in finding the right baby for your family.   THIS IS A PARTIAL LIST AND DOES NOT INCLUDE ALL OF THE  BIRTHMOTHERS FOR ADOPTION OR THE BABIES THAT HAVE BEEN BORN.  I am always looking for loving, stable couples who are ready to be parents.  I do not accept couples who want a gender preference (just a boy or only a girl).   Heartfelt  Adoption is proud to announce that I am in total compliance with every rule and State Regulation set forth in the legal guidelines for California Adoption Facilitators.  To access this registry go to:  www.childsworld.ca.gov/PG1701.htm.  Heartfelt Adoption is honest, ethical and operates with integrity.  

2. (MATCHED) All Caucasian baby due 9/4/09 to a birthmother who has previously given up one child for adoption.  Birthfather is unknown.  Birthmother is 5' 4" tall, 120 lbs, brown hair, blue eyes and will be incarcerated through the pregnancy.  Birthmother believes she is having a boy and denies taking any type of drugs or alcohol.  (Updated 5/20/09)   Birthmother chose a young Florida couple with two children.  Many of you couples have called me about this birthmother because she is having a boy.  Remember that approximately  2% of the sonograms could be wrong.  Heartfelt does not take couples who want to select the gender.  I have had couples who leave the baby at the hospital just because the baby was not a boy or a girl as the sonogram had revealed.  It depends on the technician's experience when doing the sonogram.  Thanks anyway for contacting me.  This Florida couple who signed up with me on 1/9/09 will be delighted with a boy or a girl.   (Updated 6/9/09) 

3. (AVAILABLE ) . All Hispanic baby due September 30, 2009 to a 42 year old birthmother incarcerated in VSPW.  Birthmother has been clean and sober for 2-1/2 years and has given a previous child up for adoption.  Birthmother will be incarcerated until next year for Selling/Possession so the baby will be born while she is in prison.  This looks like a very secure adoption due to the fact that Child Protective Services would have the right to take this child when born if no adoption were in place.  She does not have relatives as she was abandoned as a child and raised by foster parents.  A match is presently being considered with a Heartfelt couple previously signed up.  Its all about loving homes for these babies. (Updated 6/11/09)  

4. (AVAILABLE)      All Caucasian baby girl due December 15, 2009.  Let me tell you a story.  On October 28, 1992 a beautiful 18 year old from a very poor dysfunctional family met with me and said she wanted to give her baby up for adoption.   She kept her word and selected an outstanding couple who later adopted from me again.  Through the years, I have kept in touch with this loving family.  I have occasionally received pictures of these two girls.  Just t a few months after giving her baby up for adoption this birthmother called me and said "please, please come and get me, I should not be here, I want to go home."  Within the hour and before I could get her, the police picked up all who were involved and charged each teenager with kidnapping.  Here in CA that is a very serious charge.   After a long eighteen years of being incarcerated I have witnessed her survival of 7 consecutive years in total lock down and rejoiced when I heard her admit to me.  "I have made some very wrong decisions in my lifetime."   She has even asked for a bible.  I purchased her bible at Capital Christian Center just last week and she should have it soon.  I hear a long awaited change in her for the better.  Now her child that she gave up for adoption 16 years ago is having a baby.   The family tells me that both the birthmother, birthfather and their families are in agreement for adoption.  Since she is only 16 and he is 19 years old, all parties are leaning toward adoption.  We shall see.  This situation is very new and recent.  Something in my heart tells me that this child will be kept within the family.  I could be wrong.  Heaven knows I have been wrong before.  We will be sure before any match takes place.  (Updated 7/3/09). 

5. (AVAILABLE)  Dark hair, brown eyed birthmother having an All Caucasian baby. Birthfather has blond hair, blue eyes and does not want the baby.   Birthmother is in the early stage of her first trimester so the estimated date is only a guess at this time.  A sonogram will reveal the exact date.  Estimated date of birth at this point is approximately late December or early January 2010.  Attorney feels she is committed to adoption.  She was recently incarcerated for possession of drugs and was offered the "Mother/Infant" program.  This program would allow her to keep her baby while being incarcerated.  She refused and told authorities she was going to give the baby up for adoption. Admits to using drugs one time before being incarcerated.  May be released sometime in August or September 2009. Birthmother has three prior children with her elderly parents .   (Updated 7/3/09)  

6. (MATCHED)   All Hispanic baby due in September.  New birthmother is in the process of completing paper work for the attorney.  Incarcerated with sentence pending.  Claims she was in the wrong place at the wrong time.  Time will tell.  Denies using any drugs.  Birthfather unknown.  What is wonderful about our California prison system is when these girls are incarcerated they get excellent prenatal care, eat regularly, sleep regularly and we don't have to worry about having a drug baby.  The birthmother cost is much lower too bringing down the cost of the adoptions.  (Updated 4/28/09)  Recently matched with a couple of her choice. All is going well.  September comes sooner than we think.  It will be here and gone before we know it.  Time waits for no one.  (Updated 9/9/09)

7. (MATCHED)   Caucasian/Hispanic baby due in December 2009.  This is a repeat birthmother who recently gave a baby up to a loving California couple.  Birthmother has had five pregnancies.  Two of the children were given up for adoption, one is with a family member and two reside with their birthfathers.  This birthmother is 28 years old,  has brown hair and brown eyes and is 5' 2" tall weighing 120 lbs.  We feel certain that she will give this baby up for adoption.    (Updated 5/20//09)  This birthmother trusts her attorney completely since he has helped her with prior adoptions.  Recently matched early in her pregnancy to a Kansas couple simply because we know her well.  We believe strongly that she will not keep this baby.  However, I do want to tell all of you adoptive couples that no adoption is a "no risk adoption".  They simply do not exist.  We have no control over miscarriages, still-births, birth defects where some couples may not want the baby and the fact that the laws allow them to change their mind.  Heartfelt would never match any birthmother unless we felt that she was sincere in giving her baby up for adoption.  I promise to protect my couples to the best of my ability.  I care about every one of you.  (Updated 6/9/09)

8. (BORN 4/12/09 EASTER SUNDAY)  All Caucasian baby girl due 4/1/08 is 90% sure she would like to give this baby girl up for adoption.  Twenty-four (24) year old birthmother has blond hair, blue eyes and reports two possible birthfathers.  Informs attorney that neither of these birthfathers will want to parent this child and are involved in other relationships.  We will give this birthmother all the time that she needs and more importantly explain the entire adoption process to her.  She has scheduled a second appointment and it looks very good at this point in time.  She is receiving good prenatal care  (Updated 1/16/09)  This birthmother has been very cooperative.  She is in the process of talking with and meeting her chosen adoptive couple.  (Updated 2/2/09).  I will attend a meeting today with the attorney, birthmother and the adoptive couple.  Excitement as well as anticipation is sure to be bouncing around in the hearts.  The adoptive couple is currently in flight and will be here within hours at the Sacramento National Airport.  We will begin with a meeting of all parties followed by a casual lunch and end with a hospital tour today or tomorrow.  All will go well.  (Updated 2/21/09)  Adoptions go well when we have a birthmother who seriously thinks all things through, asks questions, and contemplates the results of an adoption.  This birthmother was just that.  It went well from the start with excellent, honest communication from all parties.  Baby girl Ella was born on EASTER SUNDAY, April 12, 2009.  Both adoptive parents were present in the delivery room as Ella made her grand entrance.  Surely to be loved by all Ella is in a secure, safe, loving environment.  Adoptive parents say she has been a joy and they couldn't be happier.  (Updated 4/28/09)

9. In all my years facilitating adoptions, I have never had a situation quite like this one.  Heartfelt Adoption is asking for prayers for a 1-1/2 year old happy, well adjusted, Hispanic/Caucasian boy born on July 2, 2007, weighing 8 lb 10 Ozs., and 21" long.  He lost his Single Adoptive Mother on December 1, 2009 due to a sudden, unexpected heart attack.  Because the legal finalization is still pending, this adoption is not final. The attorney  informs me  that the birthmother will again be contacted to decide the future and fate of this child.  She made an excellent choice by choosing adoption and placed him at birth with this loving single Mother who adored him.   I believe, with the support of our prayers, she will continue to do what is best for him now.  The birthmother remains incarcerated in VSPW.   (Updated 1/16/09)   Heartfelt requested the grieving family members to prepare and mail a packet to this birthmother.  A Heartfelt letter was enclosed, photos of the child and photos of the family members wanting to adopt were included.  I am happy to announce that this birthmother has agreed to allow the cousin who is married and has one child to adopt this little boy.  They have spent a great deal of time with this little boy.  All is well with this family.  Have you noticed when one door closes through out our life another door opens.  Although we will miss the adoptive Mother greatly, I believe this child will remain in a secure, loving home with a happy ending.  May this be a lesson to all of us....... Let me ask you a question....one that I have had to ask myself....If your life ended tomorrow, where would you spend eternity?  (Updated 2/2/09) 

10. (BORN ON 12/24/08)  A repeat mothers called from the hospital and said I need a couple to come and get my baby..   She had contacted us early on in her pregnancy and we ask that she wait a little while before choosing a couple.  What a surprise when this repeat birthmother who had given a beautiful baby girl up just a few months earlier was already in labor.  This baby too was part Hispanic and part Caucasian.  Beautiful baby girl, Angel Marie weighed 7 lbs 6 Ozs and was 20" long.   Although birthmother tested positive for drugs, as did Angel Marie, her impressive APGAR scores were 9.  This healthy baby went to the loving arms of a young married couple residing in California just 48 hours after her birth.    When I called my couple, Christmas Eve Day, December 24th, 2008 they were ready to celebrate Christmas with the family.  (Wait just a minute....we have one more addition!)  This was a Christmas like none other and baby girl Angel Marie brought with her the joy.   Even the brother and wife of the Adopted Mother just happened to live near the hospital where Angel Marie was born.  Family and friends are priceless especially at a time like this!! Needless to say this close, loving, family welcomed precious Angel Marie with open hearts.  I have enjoyed working with this Heartfelt couple.  Timely Adoptions like this one truly gives ME the greatest pleasure simply because  I LOVE FACILITATING ADOPTIONS!!!!   THERE IS NO BETTER JOB ON EARTH.  I am looking forward to many more adoptions in the year 2009.   I CAN IMAGINE MYSELF SAYING TO MY HEAVENLY FATHER WHEN HE IS READY TO CALL ME HOME.....WAIT JUST A MINUTE LORD.....JUST ONE MORE BABY !!!.  (just kidding...lets all keep our since of humor in 2009. " My son says:  Mom, don't sweat the small stuff." - that's good advice for all).   (Updated 12/30/08) 

11. (AVAILABLE - PENDING)    1).  At present Heartfelt has approximately 4 unmatched birthmothers in different stages of their pregnancy.  As information is received by the attorney and forwarded to Heartfelt, they will be matched with a couple of their choice.   We will obtain complete information on each of them as time goes by.  Some are in the early stages of pregnancy others are in the first trimester and some are barely pregnant.  Not all birthmothers are listed on my website.  It has been a busy year for Heartfelt.  We are almost half way through 2009.  How time flies when your having fun!     The best way to get your baby  is to sign up with Heartfelt, get your paper work in the system along with a birthmother letter (I will help you make an impressive birthmother letter if you cannot) and let me circulate your information to several attorneys in addition to my own birthmothers.   The independent adoption program allows the birthmother to choose her couple and then the couple chooses back.  It is the best method for adoption here in CA.  Almost all of the birthmothers will come from CA.    If you follow my web site, I am sure you realize that they come in, get matched, have their baby and go on their way.  Just like a revolving door, birthmothers and adoptive couples are constantly coming and going.  My 20 year mark is rapidly approaching.   Consider joining Heartfelt!   Although the economy has not affected Heartfelt, I still need good couples who will love these babies.  I would like to have more couples.  Call (916 362-2300) or e-mail me (heartfelt@heartfeltadoption.com) if you have any questions.   (Updated 7/3/09)
