Dear Waiting,
If it's any comfort, rest assured that even biological children can come much later than expected. Specifically, a family in our ward had a beautiful daughter 6 months after getting married, and then struggled for years with infertility and failed adoptions. 16 years after the birth of their daughter, the sister found out she was pregant (at 40+ years old). She was bedridden most of the pregnancy and of course the fear was she'd lose the baby. She had a beautiful, perfect son. You're not too old and you didn't wait too long. Trust the spirit. 
Best wishes,
Jennifer
