Twofus,
I hear you! I pretty much feel the same way, about wanting to help out kids and preferring that to fertility treatments, etc.
I feel that the best and most useful thing to do in this life is to raise your children well. That's the biggest way to have a positive impact on the world. However, is it not even more useful to help raise children who may not otherwise receive the love and boundaries that will help them become charitable citizens of the world.
I know that my mind is at rest as my DH and I finish up the approval process for foster care. I no longer stress about getting pg. Each person feels different and you need to trust your own gut feelings, but you're not the only one to feel this way.
