Default I'm brand new to adoption so I'd like to join y'all!

This morning I got a BFN on my 4th round of injectables/iuis. My hubby and I are super excited about moving on to adoption!!! We have done the informational meeting at our agency. Early next week we'll start the paperwork and hopefully get the ball rolling!!! I'm looking forward to the support on this board. I've been on the TTC boards for so long so it's weird to switch but I can't wait for this new adventure!!

Welcome and G/L with the whole adoption route! It is an adventure and if you ever need to vent or have questions post here or you can pm me...adoption is a scary world and you need all the friends that you can get!

Welcome!

Which country are you thinking of adopting from (or are you going to decide that @ the meeting?)?

Good Luck!

Best of luck to you! It took me a while to decide to stop TTC for now and pursue adoption, but now I am super excited, like you.

Have you decided on domestic vs. international?

We're doing domestic. We are really lucky because the largest agency here has no fees. It's one of only a few that do not have any fees. We just got a packet of paperwork to fill out and return before our intake interview. After the intake interview we have a 2 day training class in July. So I guess we'll just hurry up and wait.
