August~I'm so sorry these insensitive women have made you even doubt your decision to adopt your little darling! YOU are not wrong. THEY are.

Please take my word for it...there is a place for you. You don't need to join a group simply to join. Why not start your own playgroup? An ad in the classifieds is a place to start, but why not use your resources as an amom? Call your agency, see if they'd be open to your starting an "A-Playgroup" with past veterans, present new parents, and future aparents being able to join. If you still contact other parents who went thru the classes, etc. with you, see if they can help out. Or post here! Post in the "E-Pals" forum for your state and see who else may be able to get together with you who will already know what you've been through!

Best of luck and don't be down on yourselves or your DD.
