Adoption

The first meeting

Hi all,

We have our first appointment with the adoption counselor on Friday. She seems really great, eager to call me back and to help us as we get started on this journey! Talking with her totally put a smile on my face all day!

She sent me an email with directions to their place and told me if I have any questions beforehand to email her and she will have everything ready for Friday. For those of you who have gone (or are going through) an agency, what questions did you ask in the beginning or what did you wish you had asked about? 

Hubby + Vasectomy = IUI with Donor.
March 2011 - IUI #1 = BFN
April 2011 - IUI #2 = BFN
May 2011 - Monitored IUI cycle to see what's going on. Ha! Tons of follicles, none big enough to do insemination.
June 2011 - Nothing - unexplained (probably stress) 58 day cycle.
July 2011 - Switch from Clomid to Letrozole. Let's get these follicles growing! 2 follicles big enough, HCG injection, BFN
Break taken to focus on our marriage and less on not getting pregnant.
February 2012 - Ready to get back on the horse and try IUI #4 - - BFN
May 2012 - IUI #5 with Letrozole and HCG - BFN
June 2012 - Doctor wants to move to injectible IUI or IVF. We don't want IVF but agree to do injections.
Currently - Saving money for Injectible IUI cycle and taking the first steps towards adoption!

Re: The first meeting

  • I have no advice, but I just wanted to say that I'm glad you had a positive first meeting with the counselor! It always helps to get anything off on the right foot.  I hope it keeps going well!
