TTC After a Loss 6 Months+

About time for an update

Hey ladies - 

I figured it was about time I come back up for air.  

After some heavy soul-searching and a horrible night spent as a crumbled mess on my bathroom floor, DH and I decided that TTCAL is just not something we can do anymore.  

It's been hard and confusing but, because we're also exploring the adoption route, it's also started to become exciting and just the tiniest bit hopeful too.   

We're getting close to starting our home study and contracting with our agency.  It's hard giving up the idea of a biological child, but we both feel that this is the path that leads us to our take home baby.  

Sorry that I disappeared for a while - I really had some serious regrouping to do.  Now that my head is on better, I hoping to be around these parts more again.  I love you girls and am so glad to finally be back in a place where I can be a part of the community again.
