What are the Chances of a Newborn Baby Being Adopted?

Lotus bud (c) Lynda BernhardtI was scanning through a list of questions that people used to find Adoption Under One Roof, and I was surprised to come across the following one:

What are the chances of a newborn baby on being adopted?

This question surprised me because, as somebody who had to wait a long time to adopt a newborn baby, the answer seemed obvious to me. However, somebody who is new to adoption might not know the answer to this question, so I thought I would address it.

The short answer is that newborn babies do not have to wait for an adoptive home. There are multiple hopeful adoptive families waiting to adopt each newborn baby that becomes available for adoption.
