So we're almost to the finish line. I wanted to foster and adopt for ever! I love children so much and couldn't help but think that there were already so many children out there that it felt wrong to have more. I feel like there are children who need my husband and I and I like that feeling.
The big situation is that we've been ttc for a year and a half and nothing. I've only told a few close friends about our problem, but it irks me when people ask if that is the reason that we're doing foster care. I've always wanted to do both, but I can't help but feel slighted. I feel like a failure as a woman. Anyone else going through this? Does it get easier?

I'm going through it. We have been trying for almost 6 years. It is easier, now, but during my cycle, I'm still a wreck. The idea of being a mother is so wonderful to me that I am very excited about adoption. I just feel really sad that one time a month that my body is such a failure. I think it is normal. How many of them tell you that as soon as you adopt that you will get pregnant? (I really hate that on so many levels.)
