Thank you for sharing your stories, I really appreciate it. After posting, I realized I probably should have put some specific questions up there, huh? But in a way I'm glad I didn't at first, because really I just love hearing about how/when people chose adoption and what difference it has made in their lives.
A couple specific questions:
-Any tips or things I should be aware of in terms of relationships between bio and adopted siblings?
-I am strangely nervous about people assuming that infertility is our primary motivation when it isn't...but I'm learning that people have lots of misconceptions about adoption and that infertility really isn't the "primary" motivation for anyone...thoughts on how to respond to the silly things others say?
-Not sure when/how to tell the family...wondering if they will try to pressure us to "try harder" for bio kids...what are others experiences and suggestions on this?
Thanks so much for the warm welcome! I'm really impressed with the compassion and wisdom of folks on this forum.
