Typing with one hand because our 5 day old daughter wants to be held right now. To parent or not was one of the things my dh and I agreed upon before we got married. We've been married 7 years. After a couple of years we discovered that we could not have birthchildren. The decision to adopt was a no-brainer at that point, which we just accomplished. We're 45 years old.
Someone asked me the other day how old we will be in 18 years when the baby graduates from high school. My response? "Exactly the same age we'll be in 18 years if we don't adopt." That worked.
Like I mentioned, we decided to have children before we got married. It wasn't tough for us to decide. Sorry I don't have good pointers, but good luck in your decision.
