Adoptions with love help women to pay the costs of childbirth and pregnancy. Pregnancy is an exciting time in women's lives that requires major lifestyle changes and a change of schedules. Women who work physically demanding jobs might need to cut back on their hours. High-risk pregnancies will need extra ultrasounds and checkups. Birth mothers should wait until after childbirth to make sure that her decision is the right one for her baby.

Kentucky allows stepparent adoption. This procedure can be a great way for a loving couple to establish a legal parent-child relationship. You should be aware of some things before you embark on this journey.
Adoption for adults
You can adopt an adult in Kentucky with just a few simple steps. First, both the adoptive parents or the child to whom they are consenting must sign an official act of adoption. The act must be signed by both spouses if the parties are married. Otherwise, the act is void. It is important to remember that spouse concurrence does NOT create a legal connection between the adoptive parents (and child)
International adoption
Kentucky recognizes international adoptions. The Commonwealth recognizes decrees, judgments, and final orders issued by governmental agencies in other countries as legal adoption documents. Kentucky adoption agencies will assist with the preparation of all paperwork required to complete the adoption process.
