Adoption???

This journey has really taken it's toll on me and DH and I are now looking into adoption. We have NO idea what we are in for and are very interested in the process. I have looked online and started calling around to some local agencies. There is so much information out there it is confusing! I saw something about a home inspection and social workers and then I just got lost. So I called our local county office and they said the y would put us down for a seminar on new adoptive parents! Im so excited to go. I have so many questions that Im hoping they can answer for me. Iam keeping my options open of course and I will still go through with the surgery.
I just honestly don't know how many more losses I can go through before I fall off the deep end ya know? It not fair for me to be in this pitch black dark place after every m/c that it takes drugs for me to get out of! Maybe it's just not in the cards for me to have my own child? Iam ok with that and I love that my DH is so supportive in my decision to look into adoption. I have ALWAYS wanted to adopt a child even before my first m/c. I think about all the children who need loving homes that my DH and could provide. I would love that baby just like it came out of my own womb. Im getting all teary just thinking about it! I feel super positive about this move and can't wait for the info I get. I know it can be a lengthy process but heck Ive been TTC for four years now with five heart breaks. I think I can wait a little longer for my own beautiful baby.

  1. Good luck with the process. Mr. Rhody and I have been looking into it as well, even to round out our own family if we do manage to have bio children. I am interested to hear how your experiences are; right now we're still in the researching stage ourselves.

  2. Good for you, I have a friend who's family is doing the same. They are now being "marketed" to pregnant mothers and are hoping to be chosen soon. Giving a child a deserved, loved life is an amazing gift. I wish you the very best of luck.
