My prayers are with you...
After 17 years of marriage and years of trying to get pregnant, my husband and I decided to adopt a beautiful little girl domestically. We were at the hospital when she was born and brought her home from the hospital. She is now 13 months old -- and I will be induced on Thursday with her little sister. You can imagine our surprise.
The first four months were horrible. The doctors thought I would lose the baby and were always cautioning us about getting too excited. (I bled constantly.)
Finally I stopped bleeding and we started telling people we were pregnant at 5 and 6 months. (It was winter and I could wear thick sweaters.) Anyways, some of the hardest conversations have been with the people who told us after we adopted that we would get pregnant. We had to admit that they were right.
My prayers are with you.
