Private Adoption?

Hello,
This is my first post but I have been lurking for quite some time. I've been researching the adoption process for awhile now and recently attended an information seminar at the Adoption Support Center in Indy.

I am looking forward to adopting our first child, and was eager to start the next step when I attended this seminar. My husband attended as well, but he wasn't as eager I was. He decided we could adopt on our own; finding our own birthmother and saving us money in the process.

Honestly, this overwelms me. I do not want to take this on; but perhaps I am to quick to give my money to an agency. I tried to argue with my husband, but I couldn't really put my finger on why I didn't want to. I simply do no think we can handle this entire process on our own.

I would welcome any advice on this topic. Thanks!
Jodi
