Yes, we are having the same problem in waiting for a match. Our social worker told us up front that a wait for a second child will be much longer because we already have a child. She did say that most bmom's look to place with a couple that didn't have children. I know for a fact that my daughter's bmom choose us because we didn't have children. She said she went thru the profiles and when she saw a couple with a child she said UCK! How selfish that they want more when these couples have none. YIKES.....
We waited 6 weeks for our first match. With our second adoption, we have waited now 7 months. I can't help but get discouraged especially when I get their newsletter quarterely and I see how many babies were placed and NO ONE picked us.
The only thing I can do is comfort myself that the right one will come around. It's very difficult to wait as I know you know, too well.
Hugs,
