Long story short, after being told last week that there just "weren't any birthmothers", I got the call at LUNCH today that we were not only matched, but baby was born Saturday, birth-mom was ready to be discharged but was waiting to meet us! CRAZIEST 3 HOURS OF MY LIFE but long story short we met her, we loved her, we left with our baby!
I can't believe that I was just complaining about feeling discouraged- this can truly happen in a second y'all! Our agent says they call these "Blessing Babies" because they just fall from heaven. We are so smitten with her and though none of this feels real yet, we are LOVING having her in our home!
and I have a pic to post but can't for the life of me figure out how to in chrome! Help?!
