The women at my Mom's work started a $ pool for how fast I would get pregnant after we adopted Ty. They ALL gave me less than 6 months. We were intentionally very careful for those 6 months. When I asked my mom what she said when she found out, she said she laughed. I told her she should have said...Thanks so much for supporting my daughter in her adoption plan.

I spent so much of our adoption journey telling everyone that NO...I wasn't going to get pregnant; if that happen now if it would be hard.

If anyone makes comments like "See, you should have just relaxed and you wouldn't have had to adopt" I give you premission to punch them in the face. If I was in your shoes (and I can totally name who would say it), that would be my game plan. What are they going to do? Hit you back? They can't...your pregant!

Congrats and enjoy your little ones! You have room in your heart for both and you'll love each of them more for their differences!
