Our agency told us, before we even started trying to adopt our first, that a second adoption usually takes longer. But, as others have stated, a newborn domestic adoption is kinda all about chance.....the right bmother picks you based on what she desires in a family. The listed average wait at our agency is 9 - 12 months, but some families have waited longer because of whatever circumstances (maybe they already had a child, were very particular about the child they were willing to adopt, etc.) while others have literally adopted with weeks of finishing their profile. Our son's birthmother considered couples both with and without other children. She says, for her, it all came down to a matter of who she felt most comfortable with.
