As with any adoption something could have happened but we felt pretty comforted by the history of the agency and what they told us. Domestic adoption really scares me. I understand why people want to do it, but b/c the bparents have 30 days to take teh baby back, I could never do that to myself. I hope you are successful with TTC efforts. But you should read my first blog about our adoption journey and my blog about life after adoption.<BR/>ajanderica.blogspot.com<BR/>funnyfinn.blogspot.com<BR/><BR/><BR/>I hope things are okay with you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6685829644342774032.post-21806344884093417432009-03-26T15:08:00.000-04:002009-03-26T15:08:00.000-04:00ICLW ---I hope your OB appointment comes quickly a...ICLW ---<BR/><BR/>I hope your OB appointment comes quickly and it ends up being nothing. ~hugs~nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04479202205264710056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6685829644342774032.post-24007569525222525502009-03-26T14:02:00.000-04:002009-03-26T14:02:00.000-04:00I hope that you finally get some answers.

I don't know though if it would/could be the cause of all the pain. It sure would be nice if it was a somewhat easy fix. <BR/>I didn't watch the show on adoption but I feel a bit like you. I don't mind the idea of adoption at all. What scares me is the whole being chosen and then having the birth mom change their mind. It just happened to a friend of mine. Also all the expense, home study etc.battynursehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02240029154165501340noreply@blogger.com
