Well I decided it ain't going happen. It will never happen. And even if it does well the prognosis would not be good. I can't wait much longer. Hubby and I want to adopt. Where do I even start? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I am not in the greatest of health so fear that will disqualify us. I am healthy enough to take care of a child but life expectancy is a big unknown right now.

Salut cherie! Felicitations on decding to adopt! I htink that is a wonderful idea. It is on my list as well, if these pills do not work. I think adoption is a wonderful idea. If I were you, and this is a long shot, beucase ma chere, I am not you.... :D but if I have another doctor appt, I would ask them about reputable adotion serivces. You will have to ask yourself question...open adoption (where child can see bio mom) or closed (no bio mom)... infant, or child... international or within your country.... can you adopt siblings, or singleton... Those are some questions that you may ask yourself, and some that the agency most likely will. Also, if you have family members or friends who were adopted, they would be a valuable resource as well. And, maybe if you want to, internet searches and phone book (phone book is good idea- local) But make sure you ask lots of questions about their facilties, policies, porcedures, and if there is anyhtig you are not comfortable with, move on. It's like finidng a good obgyn or RE. Please, cherie, keep us updated with this!:blob_fire :blob_fire

Hi there,
That is wonderful that you decided to adopt. No matter what even though the child is not your flesh and blood once you hold that child in your arms you will love and care for it such the same. My husband and I decided that if things do not work out for us with the fertility treatments in which we are persuing we will adopt as well. I have been doing a lot of my research on-line. If you are from the US you should look at US sites and if Canada look on the Canadian sites as procedures in adopting may slightly vary. I do know that no matter where one lives the couple must complete a home study with a social worker (there is a domestic homestudy if you wish to adopt within your country and an international homestudy if you wish to adopt out of county). If you put adoption homestudy in your search engine alot will come up. Once your home study is completed then you can further the adoption process.
I hope everything goes well for you ~ ALL THE BEST!
