DH and I made a big decision last night

in TTC After a Loss
We decided that, if we aren't able to get pregnant in the next few cycles, that we are going to start pursuing foster-adoption.  We've always wanted to adopt, and I am so excited at the possibility of doing it sooner rather than later.  Of course, if I do get pregnant that will be amazing too, but at this point we just want to be parents.  I'm so excited we've made this decision!  Smile  I wrote a much longer blog post about it, but I just wanted to share with you ladies!

    That is an amazing decision that you and DH made. I wish you both luck for the next few cycles, and for starting the adoption process when that happens!

    That's fantastic news!  There have been a lot of couples going in that direction these last couple of months.  I wish you the best of luck on a BFP and/or the adoption route!  Either way - you're going to be a mommy!!!

    Yes, I feel the same way!  It is such a wonderful feeling knowing we WILL be parents, one way or another!  Good luck to you!

    And thank you everyone else for your kind words.  It feels so amazing to have all of your encouragement and support!  Smile
