When I first mentioned the idea of adoption to my dh he was totally against it. He wouldn't even discuss it with me. The only thing he would say was he wasn't ready to stop trying to concieve on our own. I started researching adoption at that time without dh knowing (knowing that was what I really wanted to do). I did not want to push my dh into something he wasn't ready for or never would be ready for. So every so often I would bring up the subject and pray he had changed his mind. Then one day I found out our cousin was pregnant and got really upset. I was happy for them but sad for me. That night I mentioned adoption to dh again. We agreed to go to a siminar that weekend but no promises. After the siminar he was ready to sign the paperwork to get started (this was a year after me first telling him I wanted to adopt). What I am saying is sometimes patience is all it takes. I would have never of divorced dh if he decided adoption was out of the question. Now we have a wonderful 2 year old little boy that me and dh both adore!!!!
