AIM pays for a mid-sized newborn picture packet from the hospital. We ask that you share with the adoptive family so that his/her newborn picture can be part of his/her baby book.

The adoptive family usually sends picture 3 times the first six months, then at a year, and usually 1 or 2 times a year after the first year. This practice involves an exchange of information where the adoptive family would also like a couple of pictures of you and any siblings of the child from time to time.

If the birth mother discontinues exchanging information or picking up her mail, the families tend to stop sending.
