I am 36 and 6 days late. I already have children and was not planning on more, so I do however recognize the symptoms of pregnancy. I have taken several home pregnancys tests and they all result in a negative reading? I did have unprotected sex so pregnancy could be a possibility. My mom go through menopause early she is convinced that I am going through perimenopause. Anyone every experience similar, or know anything about this I have been doing some research and cannot find much information. HELP!

If an adoption took place in the court in the State of Maine in the late ’60′s would that make it an opened or a closed one?

I know this probably sounds really stupid and I apologize. But I’m writing a book and there happens to be a spot where a girl goes looking for her biological mother without her adoptive parents help. Where would she go for the information; an adoption agency or the orphanage where she lived? And what’s the difference between the two, exactly?
Thanks for reading and any help is appreciated!
