Number 2?

AdoptiveMommy

So our son is 10 months old... and I have been thinking (seriously) about #2. We are currently on hold with our facilitator, but being that I work for them I hear every situation and have almost said several times... take us off hold!!! AM I CRAZY!!?? We really would love to have 4 children and We are 27yrs and 39yrs. I worry Birthmothers may look at my hubby's age as an issue soon... Ok now I've stressed myself out!LOL  What do you all think.

 

Thanks

I'd say go for it!  We got approved for #2 when our daughter was 11 months old.  The average wait with our agency is 12 - 18 months, so we decided to "get on the list" so to speak.  In addition, we both just turned 40 for we didn't want to wait too long.  Good luck!

I don't think it's crazy.  Lots of people have children close in age and do just fine.  The question is whether you and your family is ready for it right now.

I think it's very unique to each person/couple, and only you and your husband can really tell if starting again right now is right for you.  What does he think?

We're going to wait until DD is 2 1/2 or 3 to go active again.  The wait with our faciltator is 6-8 months, and we would like them to be about three years apart.
