Adoption

Getting nowhere

So I decided to look more into international adoption of that klittle boy from RR. He is availiable to adopt from Canada but when I contacted the local agency they said it would likely be $60K and I would need to go through another agency as well for the russian part. When I contacted the first agency they said they do not work with that region.

The second agency did not know and said they would email me.

I am thinking even with some creative fundraising, there is no way I can raise $60K

    60,000?? Is that how much international adoptions cost even without travel!? 

    7/18/12-1st RE appointment CD2 blood work taken. Told to move straight to IVF. Starting BC pills and FSH injections plus Lupron. Hopefully doing ET in September Off BCP March 2011 Started TTC July 2011 7 months TTC with no luck an then.... Diagnosed 2/24/12 with 2 Ovarian Cysts. 3/22/12-Lap to remove cysts, look for endo, and see if tubes are clear. 3/22/12-Diagnosed with Severe Endo(tubes are clear). 4/4/12-Post op OBGYN appointment. Told chances of conceiving naturally are very low, but told conceiving in the next few months is our best chance due to being cleaned out during Lap. Referred to a RE. RE said IVF is our only chance to get pregnant. Told only a 20% chance even with two put in. 9/5-Lupron 9/20 Stims(Menopur & Follistim) 9/30 Trigger time 10/2 ER 10/3 fert report-out of 7 eggs retrieved only 2 fertilized. Hello "Thing 1 and Thing 2!" Kinda sad there is none to freeze. Because only 2 we will have 2DT to get them back into a natural envionment 10/4 ET. Found out that only 1 divided. We love you "Thing 2." Thing 1 is now snuggled inside me and we are praying it will be our take home baby! **Did not even make it to my beta, the day before on 10/16/12 I got my F'in period** Such a stab in the heart. Nov 2012-Moving onto domestic newborn adoption! Can't wait for my take home baby. We will try IVF again after 1-2 years of a clear head. Need a break from infertility treatments/issues for my mental sanity! image

  • Are you required to work with a Canadian agency?  Just wondering.  That sounds really expensive.  Did they tell you where all of the money goes?

    Failed Matches - December 2012, May 2013, December 2013
    Moved on to  gestational surrogacy with a family friend who is our angel and due 7/23/15


  • Luckily ours didn't cost that much but I could see how it could with all costs included like travel and such.

    With three trips, it gets expensive fast.

  • Well both agencies I called do not work with this area in Russia. /sigh

    Jalara- Why did you choose Russia? It seems to be one of the priciest areas...
