I've heard of this. This seems like the route du jour for those who want kids, but don't want to adopt an older child, or be waiting for an infant FOREVER.

Random adoption related sidenote:

We have neighbors who are interested in adopting a newborn, but have been signed with an agency for 10 years and no match. To be frank, White infants are not the most common children placed for adoption so if you aren't interested in overseas adoption or adopting trans-racially, you are going to be waiting on that newborn for awhile (and really you may NEVER be chosen to adopt one.)

Not to mention that when a birth mom comes along who will be placing her (white) infant up for adoption with the agency our neighbors are with, said mom has her pick of at least 30 other birth families. They explained the process to me once, it seriously is like The Bachelorette: Adoptive Parent edition.
