Adoption

Intro :)

Hi ladies,

I've been lurking on this board on and off for a while as DH and I tried to decide what family-building option(s) we are going to pursue.  We had a long talk over Thanksgiving and have decided to pursue adoption (once I have finished my master's degree and find a job!), so I decided I'd introduce myself. :)

I'm Katie, DH is Tyler.  We've been married 5.5 years and TTC for 3 years.  We have MFI and DH had varicocele surgery on Valentine's Day this year.  He just went for his last post-op SA today.  We have 3 dogs, enjoy running and reading as pastimes, and we live in TX.

We're planning to pursue a domestic infant adoption sometime after 2013, so we have quite a while to research and prepare. I'm looking forward to getting to know you ladies and learn from your experiences.

Any questions for me, just ask!

    After 5.5 years of loss, heartbreak, and empty arms, our dreams were fulfilled through the beautiful, selfless gift of adoption. We are amazingly blessed!

  • Welcome!  We had MFI too and my DH had varicocele surgery.  My DH's number actually got worse after the surgery.  I was sad at first, but now I am so excited about adding our second child to our family through adoption!  We are also doing domestic infant adoption.  Good luck to you!
