Hello and welcome
Hi Carissa--
You've come to the right place. Congratulations on your decision to adopt!! It's a big one, and so intangible at times that a lot of times people don't "get" it.
In many ways I've been where you've been (lots of us here have)--just wanting to be a mom, wondering when it will be my turn, watching everyone around us get pg by just looking at each other, and so forth.
What to do about it?? Vent here, of course!!
For me, I decided not to waste energy worrying about what was fair (my hubby and I are far more "stable" than many people we know who've had kids recently), and we tried to keep ourselves busy doing fun things together, knowing that our time as "just" a couple was lessening every day. We did a few baby-oriented things (looking at name books), but not many.
Chin up--I can't promise the wait will be easy, but it will be worth it!
