If you're a prospective #adoptiveparent or an #adoptionprofessional guiding families, we invite you to listen in on our recent #podcast with Dr. Sara Silvesti! Inevitably, adopting families must answer, "what are you open to?" specifically when it pertains to prenatal exposure. That's a BIG question to answer, especially when you aren't a board-certified pediatrician. We were lucky enough to sit down with Dr. Silvestri to talk about some of the medical complexities of adoption, such as prenatal exposure, along with birth family medical and mental health history, and so much more!
