  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. (BORN)   Caucasian girl.  Birthmother has selected two couples and is in the process of deciding which one she would like to give her baby to.  Both are outstanding couples.  My thanks to all of you who contacted me with regard to this birth mother.  I met with her and her best friend.  We had a wonderful lunch and enjoyed the day.  We spent a lot of time trying to get medical records and finally gave up. The office was closed and they were not returning regardless of what their signs said (will return at 1:30 p.m. - we assumed they were at lunch!!!!)  Birth mother gave me seven photos taken by the sonogram of this baby girl.  Sooooo adorable!  This is why I love doing adoptions.  I have a picture of her tiny little foot, her leg, her face, as well as an arm.  Of course we have a picture of her "pookey", revealing that she is definitely a girl.  It was a blessed day.   (12/10/11)    Birthmother has selected a couple who resides in the mid west and has no children.  A shy birth mother spoke briefly with them by telephone and the match is secure.  This couple is in their mid twenties and I know they will be great parents.  (Updated 12/13/11)  Beautiful baby girl was born on January 9th weighing 6 lbs 11 ozs. and 20 inches long.  Birth mother was amazing and although she lives with her father and mother and is only 16 years old, she was able to keep this pregnancy a secret from her sisters, father and mother!!!!  Her water broke while doing dishes in the kitchen and a friend  rushed her to the hospital.  The baby girl was born less than one hour later.  What a terrific adoption and outstanding birth mother.  She is "top of the line".   She allowed the adoptive couple to name the baby Ava Meredith.  This was a very blessed adoption and the birth mother has plans to join the military as soon as she finishes school.  She will do well.  Sometimes these young birth mothers do not know how special they are and how intelligent.  I do my very best to tell them and point out their good qualities every time I am with them.  This one is quality.  I am so pleased that she would never consider abortion.  Ava Meredith is the very best ....of course....every baby is special to Heartfelt.  Ava and I are so blessed!!  (Updated 1/12/12)

  3. (AVAILABLE) Caucasian/Hispanic  Baby due approximately July 15th.  Birth father will consent.  Birth Mother is 35 years old and 3 Mo pregnant. Birth father will consent.  Light complexion, Caucasian/Hispanic birth mother has a past drug history but is currently incarcerated for two years.  She will deliver while in jail.    Attorney has received a pregnancy verification.  Birth mother reveals that she has been free of drugs for a period of 6 months.      (Updated 1/5/1212)  

  4. (HEARTFELT TRAGEDY)  All Caucasian baby will be born on or about January 20, 2012 to a 33 year old birth mother who has been a prior Heroin user and is currently on Methadone.   Birth mother is attractive, 5' 2" tall with blond hair and brown eyes.  She usually weighs approximately 118 when not pregnant.  Seeking a couple who will cherish and love her baby.  Whereabouts of birth father is unknown.  (Updated 1/5/12)  Many of you have called about this baby and we have several couples who will be shown if birth mother cooperates.  As you know Heartfelt goes the extra mile to protect couples from any adoptions falling apart.  Attorney decided to wait until the child is born and we can match at the hospital.  Only then we will know the health of the baby.  Attorney has advanced the money out of his pocket.  He is amazing and can be trusted.  We have had some reports from her friend but time will tell all.  Drugs is such a major issue now days.  Hopefully, this child will not be exposed to any drugs.  (Updated 1/12/12)  In all of the years that I have been doing adoptions I have not had a heart breaking incident such as this.  The birth mother was found dead in her apartment last week but I have needed time to work through this tragedy.  She has apparently continued with her drug usage and over dosed on the amount that she consumed.  The baby is of my utmost concern; after all it was due on the 20th in just a few days.  Maybe it is a blessing for the baby.....I'm not sure about that......the amount of drugs she apparently was taking would have affected the baby seriously.  Being with our heavenly father is not a bad place to be.  What more can I say? .....I hate drugs.  (Updated 1/14/12)

  5. (AVAILABLE)  All Caucasian baby due in August 2012.  This is a solid 40 year old birth mother, very committed since she has given up five prior children for adoption.  Needs financial help.  (Updated 1/5/12)

  6. (AVAILABLE)  Sonogram reveals TWINS.  All Caucasian twins due approximately July 20th.  Twins are known for birthing early.   Birth mother is 29 years old with a prior drug history.  States she is currently clean and free from drugs.  Birth father unknown.  (Updated 1/5/12)

  7. (AVAILABLE)  Beautiful and adorable child from the Marshall Islands near the South Pacific is ready to be adopted.  Healthy baby boy born 9/15/09 needs a loving home.  Couples must be home study approved.  Finalization may not have to take place in your state but the state where the child currently is located.  Details and choices as to finalization can be worked out with the attorney.   This adoption is approximately $35,000.  The wonderful part of this adoption is that you will begin parenting immediately with no waiting for a baby to be born and you don't have to be concerned about  loosing any of your money in a failed adoption.  This adoption is safe and a very secure adoption.   (Updated 1/5/12)  

  8. (BORN) .  Nineteen year old birth mother is getting ultra sound today and Heartfelt is meeting with her tomorrow.  She would like an open adoption and receive pictures and letters.  Birth father is unknown.  (Updated 9/19/11)  Ultrasound revealed that this is a girl baby due November 18th.  She would like to have an open adoption and be allowed to see this child from time to time.  Two years ago this birth mother lost her first child due to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).  When the current birth father was told about this pregnancy he "took flight."  He is no where to be found.  All who are interested in this birth mother, please contact me right away.  You must be home study approved if you are outside California.  The approximate total fee for this adoption is estimated to be $23,000.  That amount includes costs.   You may use your own attorney if you wish but the $23,000 includes your finalization here in California.   This birth mother contacted Heartfelt directly.  Call me!! We don't have long before this little girl will be making her appearance.  (Updated 9/30/11)  My thanks to all of you wonderful couples who responded to this birth mother by sending your information and birth mother letters to Heartfelt.  The Birth mother matched with a single lady after reviewing at least ten couples.  The single lady met with me and the birth mother near her home in a out-of-the way park.  I love it when the matches are instant simply due to that comfortable flow of communication between the two parties.  All questions were answered to their satisfaction and now its an open door of paper work, paper work.....and more paper work!  We have to hurry due to the November 18th due date.  Some babies do not pay any attention to the due date and decide to come early.  WE'LL BE READY! (10/4/11).   This birth mother was wonderful.  She has been kind, pleasant and I have loved working with her.  She went to the Kaiser hospital today at 4:00 a.m. along with her Mother and the Adoptive Mother.  The baby girl was born at approximately 6:30 this morning and weighs a little over 6 lbs.   The baby was taken by C-Section and all went well.  This was a well matched adoption and I had a lot of fun with this one.  I didn't hear the babies name mentioned (cell phones don't work well in hospital hall ways)  I am sure I will be told soon.  Another happy, happy ending!!!  Life is great!!  (November 14, 2011)  The birth mother e-mailed me a picture of the baby.  The adoptive mother named her Olivia.  Both the birth mother and the single adoptive mother want to stay in contact.  This decision is not the most popular but occasionally both parties want the same thing.  This is one of the sweetest birth mothers that I have had in a long time.  I am sure the baby will be too if she has any traits like her Mother.  (November 15, 2011)  

  9. (BORN)  All Caucasian baby girl due in two months.  Attorney went to see this couple last night and put them in a motel along with their dog.  No drugs.  We have a pregnancy verification, sonogram and photos.  This couple has experienced some hard times but is considering a California couple and all seem to be going well.  I believe this will be a beautiful baby.  Its a long story that I will not disclose but this couple has had some difficulty pursuing another child.  They are a strong secure loving couple.  They are happy and secure in Southern California.  This went very fast and all couples considered were Heartfelt Couples already on file.  (Updated 7/8/11).  All is going well. The attorney is one that I have worked with for many years.  He picked this couple up from sleeping under the Los Angeles bridge where they were staying.  He put them in a motel along with their dog.  He has taken them to get identification, fed them, taken them to the doctor and hospital, even assisted them with the financial aspects.  A good attorney is worth his weight in gold.   (7/24/11)  This sweet baby girl was born at 34 weeks (normal pregnancy is 40 weeks) on August 21, 2011.  She is presently confined to the hospital intensive care unit with a good prognosis. The nurses say she is sleeping, eating and  making a satisfactory progress.  This baby will go to a wonderful home with parents who have exceptional caring qualities toward children.  They have experienced trials of their own including miscarriages.  My heart tells me this is a wonderful match and this child will be surrounded by love and attention as well as having the best of care.  "Addison" darling, you are a blessed little girl with a bright future..  (Updated 8/23/11)  Addison was brought home from the hospital on September 1st.  She weighed 5 lbs 4 Ozs and was 18" long.  She now has no issues.  She was treated at the hospital for a mild jaundice that lasted for one afternoon and experienced a mild infection.  They kept Addison in the NICU as she needed to learn how to nipple/suck/feed and breathe simultaneously, which she would have learned in utero.  She is home now sleeping, eating and is simply beautiful.  I have the best job in the whole world.....!!!  YEAH....HEARTFELT!! (Updated 9/2/11)

  10. JOYFUL HEARTFELT MOMENTS:  I was contacted by a Heartfelt baby girl who was born in 1992.  She is a beautiful teenager approaching adulthood.  She informs me that she has located her brother and sister who was age 3 and 4 1/2 at the time of her birth. Her birth mother died two years ago.  The family that adopted her has done a wonderful job of raising her.  Just thought I would share this success story with you.  I should not be the only one who gets pleasure out of these heartfelt adoption stories.

  11. INTERESTING......I received a very interesting profile not too long ago that included a document called:  "Our Family Creed."  It had several paragraphs:          Praise and Honor God Daily.  In our thoughts, our words and our deeds, thus establishing the foundation for our success as a true family..................................................................  Honor and Respect My Spouse.  Loving each other as Christ loves His church and faithfully demonstrating our lifelong commitment to providing for each others needs....... Spiritually Protect Our Family.  By constantly interceding in prayer for our needs, establishing the word of God as our home's final authority, and boldly declaring that "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord."  ........................................................... .......  Emotionally Protect Our Family.  By speaking words of blessings and encouragement, spending lots of quality time together, and remembering to be slow to anger and quick to extend mercy .............................................................................................................. Physically Protect Our Family.  Through hard work, preparedness and diligence, understanding, that our call as a family unit requires daily sacrifices................................... . Be Faithful To Our Family.  By ensuring regular weekly church attendance and faithful giving of our time and resources, in addition to maintaining relationships with other Christians for edification and accountability....................................................................................   Ask the Lord For Wisdom.   His empowerment enables us to walk in love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, and self-control.  The last paragraph.....Allow No Other Activities to Distract Us from our number one priority, which is to be assured that my family proclaims Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. (Thanks, Jane.  Your worth your weight in Gold!).

  12.  I appreciate all of you  adoptive couples.   Here is a poem just for  you.       The trials will come, the rain will fall, they cloud and muddy our trail;  Remember that the God of all will never let us fail.   He keeps us strong, He sends His Love in Oh so many ways;   He's always there, He always cares, day after day after day.  (By Loretta Cooper) 

  13.                                 (AN ADOPTIVE  MOTHER'S LOVE )                                       .....THE GIFT OF LIFE IS NOT MINE TO GIVE.......... BUT IN MY HEART I KNOW YOUR MINE...............THE LOVE I FEEL IS VERY REAL............LIFE IS WONDERFUL AND KIND.........WE ARE MEANT FOR ONE ANOTHER ...........YOU'RE MY HEARTFELT  DREAM COME TRUE........I CAN HARDLY WAIT TO HOLD YOU....GOD'S SPECIAL GIFT TO ME IS YOU!)   One of these days we will give an account of the deeds that we have done.  Remember that you will not be able to take one dollar with you when you die.  There will be no U-haul trucks carrying your possessions behind your Hurst.  What really matters is what you have done with your life while you were down here on earth.  How have you lived your life?   Make every moment count.  Life is not about the amount of time we have been given but what we did with the time we had.   Don't pass up opportunities to say kind words, encourage, or simply ignore hurtful situations.  Turning the other cheek is hard but so rewarding and satisfying once you are through that trial.  There will be many trials....take them one at a time and walk in love as financial hardships mount, tempers and loose tongues can and will due damage.  Don't be part of that.  Love when it is difficult......Make deposits into your heavenly bank account while you still can.  Make a choice to do what is right and be happy. When you reach the other side you'll be glad you did. Remember that Happiness is a choice.   LOVE IS PATIENT, LOVE IS KIND.  IT DOES NOT ENVY, IT DOES NOT BOAST, IT IS NOT PROUD,  IT IS NOT RUDE, IT IS NOT SELF-SEEKING, IT IS NOT EASILY ANGERED, IT KEEPS NO RECORDS OF WRONGS.    LOVE DOES NOT DELIGHT IN EVIL BUT REJOICES WITH THE TRUTH.  IT ALWAYS PROTECTS, ALWAYS TRUSTS, ALWAYS HOPES, ALWAYS PERSEVERES.  LOVE NEVER FAILS.  I Corinthians 13: 4-8  

  14. HELPFUL INFORMATION:  The open/independent adoption program allows the birthmother to choose her couple and then the couple chooses back.  Open does not mean that the birth mother may be entitled to visitation rights, it simply means full disclosure of information obtained.   It is the best method for adoption here in CA.  Almost all of my 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!   I always need good couples who will love these babies.   Call  (916 362-2300) or e-mail me (heartfelt@heartfeltadoption.com) if you have any questions.
