We waited 27 days to be matched. Our daughter was born 24 hours later. And yes, this was our first adoption attempt. I think the reason our wait was so short (other than God being totally 100% responsible for it! lol) was b/c we signed with a larger national agency that networks with smaller agencies throughout the US. And one of the smaller agencies just happened to be in our home state. And they are located in a major city with a significant AA population and NOT ONE SINGLE FAMILY would accept an AA or biracial child except for us. We expected to wait much longer since we already had a bio child.
