Where do I start! I recently had a baby & I'd like to start looking for my birth parents medical history. Any advice on how to go about it ?

Hi there :) I’m in a similar position, since having kids I was hoping to obtain any relevant medical history. You can apply to AAI or Tusla now for all your records. I applied last October and I received an email to say they hoped to have the backlog of cases dealt with by the early autumn. They had quite a surge of people requesting information since the law was changed..
