Anyone watching Adopting Abroad?

It's so sad :(

I missed the first part, so I'm a bit confused do they just hand out babies based on if the ophanage owner likes you?

I am truely amazed at the lack of paperwork for Saira to take a baby from the orphanage. She didn't even have to sign anything!

I think that once that baby was in her arms she wasn't giving her back, Amara is gorgeous.

and older children too that weren't really babies anymore. Such gorgeous eyes - I want to adopt them all!

I think there must have been paperwork that we didn't see. Especially given how complicated the paperwork got before she could take her to England.

Agree Saira didn't come across as a particularly sympathetic person at first, but I appreciated her honesty regarding health problems etc. It's not as if there's anyone who wouldn't be worrying and agonising over it.

I watched both episodes. I'm sure Amara will be much loved. She seemed gorgeous and alert.
I know it seems silly but the thing I found odd [and rude] was when Saira said she had to change the baby's clothes at the orthanage. Amara had a pretty dress on and I cringed thinking couldn't you bloody wait? It grated on me and I turned away from the screen when she changed her.
That aside, I wish the family well and am glad they got their little girl.

I watched both and was amazed at how she came across like she was putting an order in for a baby. However I guess that was her way of dealing with the unknown of getting some one elses child. I was riveted by her anxiety in the stairwell and her need to change the babys clothes, however I thought this might be her way of seeing the baby naked to check her over.

I loved the sister telling her to either take the baby and leave or give her back. Was very sad to think of all the others we werent so lucky.
I hope they all have a long and happy life together.Smile

I thought the changing her was also a way to see her naked too Grin

The baby was adorable.It was an honest programme and saira did look at her with adoring love in her eyes,I didn`t think it was faked,I felt it was genuine adoration,who could blame her,the baby was out of this world x
