Do you know where you were born? Do you know if your parents used an adoption agency?

If you know where you were born you may be able to track down your original birth certificate which will have either your mothers or fathers last name on it.

if you know city, state you can contact social services and apply for non-id information which is free to you. that will give you some info. on your birth parents. also, start posting your search on adoptionregistry.com and www.cousinconnect.com. i just went through all this and found BM after 2 yrs. let me know if you need any help. good luck on your search.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
