Things got very real this week...re-intro

in Adoption

I posted an intro a while ago, but have been coming out of lurkdom more this week because it is looking more and more like we may be adopting. I can get pregnant, but can't stay pregnant. Unfortunately I just had my 3rd consecutive loss, a chemical pregnancy, this week.

We have been referred to an RE, but are also getting info packets from agencies and planning on attending some seminars. We will likely do a consult with the RE, but I'm not sure if we will go that route or not. Pregnancy and loss has just been exhausting for us.

We are late twenties and have been married for nearly 4 years. I am a teacher but plan to be a SAHM once we have a LO. I like knitting and dancing and yoga. 

Even though I haven't been posting a lot lately I have been lurking. I really like reading all your stories and am encouraged by the adoption success stories I see here. 


Started TTC July 2012. Missed m/c & d&c 9/12 11w. Natural m/c 1/13 6w. Chemical pgs 3/13 & 8/13 around 4w. Currently TTA while saving for adoption.

    Hi sorry for your losses.  While you have had a rough 9 months I am not sure if I were you I would give up yet on a biological child. It hasn't even been a full year yet of TTC according to your siggy.   I think it is great to look into adoption
