    Does private adoption even exist in Australia? I thought it all had to go through the system.

    I couldn't keep it without reporting it. A child deserves to know it's genetic history if possible.

    Interesting dream though

    Ahh, I didn't think of the birth certificate. I think that'd be the best way to go SJ, and just desperately hope they would let us keep the baby until the parent came forward.

    I'm not sure TBH Tash, you're probably right.

    I'd keep it

    Hopefully it would be the same 'race' as us because I'd have a hard time with people thinking I slept with the mailman or something lol

    I can honestly say that I have never seen a child of a different race to its parents and thought that the mum must have slept with the mailman.

    Such a hard one. I would also report it as heart wrenching as it may be. I do get where you are coming from re: wanting you to have the baby and you so wanting to keep it.

    Now on a side note, i dream all the time I have a baby and lose it somewhere, so please if I have accidently left it on your door step in your dream please let me have him back

    My daughter is from a different race to DH & I. I have never considered people may think I slept will the mailman, couldn't care less if they did anyway.
