Stacey reconnects with adoptive parents who, through open adoption, encourage their child's birth parents to stay in touch.

What is it like to adopt a child, whilst keeping in touch with their birth parents? It’s an arrangement available in the USA called open adoption, which Stacey Dooley explored in the documentary ‘Giving Up My Baby’.

Taken from BBC Radio 5 Live's Stacey Dooley Revisits podcast, Stacey caught up with two couples, Angie and Sherry, and Jonathan and Frank, to find out how they were getting on as parents, seven years after adopting their children.
