Can you change my status to "impatiently" waiting?  I'm in that "never gonna happen again" funk.

 If a BM wanted me or us in the delivery room, you bet I'd be there!  I was a labor coach for two friends and helped them bring their babies into the world, so I'd take the opportunity to bring in my own as well.

We are in match hell.  Our birth mom has been incommunicado and stressed out to the max.  She has a custody hearing for her son (same dad as her pregnancy) coming up (no date - the case keeps getting continued) and I think that is hard because she is worried that she will lose her 1 year old and then obviously wont want to place this baby.  I don't see that happening because the father hasn't even seen the her little guy since January when he saw him for an hour...

So we are weighing our options and planning on talking with her more this weekend.

She had an ultrasound last thursday and was diagnosed with placenta previa so she is stressed about that on top of everything else

We still have a long road ahead of us.

I think it is awesome you were a coach for your friends

I'm sorry the wait seems like an eternity. I have a good feeling it will happen for you and your DH.  Hang in there!
