[ManyTimesBlessed]

We tried to conceive naturally for a year and found out I have a health condition. Even with the condition, I have a very high chance of getting pregnant with medications and other intervention. But, by that point we were so tired of the roller coaster of hoping we were pregnant each month and also we had finally gotten my health condition under control and I didn't want to take fertility meds and start feeling lousy again.


Adoption just seemed like the best option for us and we began to pursue it, much to the surprise of friends, relatives, etc. A lot of family doesn't understand why we didn't fight to get pregnant. We were a little sad that we were not going to be pregnant, but it just wans't really that important to us. We wanted to be parents and the way those kids came to us didn't seem to matter. Adoption is so special and such a blessing from God. To us, it is the perfect way to have a family.
