Talking Matched!!!

I can't believe my shaking fingers are writing this-WE ARE MATCHED!!!!! We've had a couple of potential situations in last few weeks, but neither were supposed to be. We are only a couple of hours away from the PBM and she wants to meet us soon. OMG!!!! Not sure of the sex yet (the PBM is sure it's a girl!) and the due date is still pretty far off. I can already tell this waiting will be even harder than the wait to be matched was.....

After telling my husband and immediate family the good news, I couldn't wait to get on the forums and post this!! Everyone here is so wonderful and supportive. I've admired the way so many of you handle this crazy mess called adoption and how supportive everyone is of each other.

Oops, I guess due date is something I left out in my excitement! The due date is Feb. 26th. The PBM has had three previous pregnancies and the births were all early.

YAHOO!!!!! YIPEE!!!!! YEA!!!!!

That is so fabulous! It's a longer wait but you'll find great company here "waiting" along with others due in that time frame. That helped me sooooo much!

Then those are all of us happy to go along for the ride. We'll give you lots of support and silly diversions whenever you need them!!!
