Thank you for being honest with me, that means a lot.
This is all new to me and scary and my husband is still very ummm nervous and worried.
He grew up in a house with parents who have a set opinion on adopted children, and he's struggling to get past their point of view.
I'm encouraging him to understand what I think is his biggest issue and that is having to give kids back. I truly feel that God will put these children in our lives and regardless of how long they are with us I know we will have served a purpose for that time. I think what makes this all easier for me is number one, this is my career field so to speak, number two, I want to be a mom and know in my heart that God has a plan that does not involve me being pregnant. What I think is harder for my husband to grasp is that as far as we know I'm perfectly "able" to carry a baby. But I'd have to stop my migraine medication and for me personally that isn't an option--I can't risk my health and possibly my baby's health just to be a mom by pregnancy. It also scares me to think I'd bring a baby into this world that would struggle with these same awful migraines that I do.
You and your husband are in my thoughts and prayers. I'll be praying that this little girl be the one for you.
