'We announced that we were adopting to have friends share, share, share.' Social media leads adoptive parents to two babies in two months:
"We announced on Facebook, Instagram, and our blog that we were adopting and to have our friends share, share, share so that an expectant mom could reach out to us," Adrienne Biehl told "Good Morning America."The Provo, Utah, couple are now proud parents to 5-month-old Quinley, who was adopted at birth on Dec. 6. In February, an expectant mom of a baby boy reached out and the baby will be adopted at birth in May.
After five years of negative pregnancy tests, Biehl told "GMA" she was diagnosed with unexplained infertility. But she said the couple didn't try "too many" medical interventions because it didn't feel right for them. Besides, her fertility doctor advised them to save for other options. The couple is elated they will soon be parents to two babies. The Biehl's have an open adoption plan with both Quinley's "wonderful" birth parents and the baby boy's birth mother. "We are just supporting and loving on his mama in her pregnancy," she said.Biehl said being an open book on social media and her blog was crucial to being matched with birth parents.
