We are still here, bringing up the rear as usual. We keep hearing 'soon' we will have the birth certificate. Today, the baby matched with our agency just after us got out of PGN and is coming home. This has been a hard day.

You're not alone. I haven't seen the thread, either. I'm still waiting in PGN. It's the fifth week back in since an August kickout. I hope we all here some good news soon.

Kris, you are not alone. I feel alone too, seeing so many fall beginners get their babies. I am just at that breaking poing. We are in 12 weeks, no kickouts, and have heard NADA!
I mean I did not want to be kicked out but at least everyone that is kicked out is assured that their file is indeed the PGN building. We might even hire AS next week if we have to. We are trying NOT to b/c we obviously cannot afford it! I never thought any of us would still be on this thread! Myrna was so good at it!(Chicalatina) She knew everyone's name, their babies name and their status. Let's get out of PGN...I am a crazy lady!

I'm still here in PGN. We haven't been in PGN very long because our I171H and FC took forever.
I hope those of you who are officially PGN "long-timers" hear something this week! WJarman, I hope you are able get this BC issue resolved soon -- how frustrating! (((hugs)))

Waiting for Pink
I am still waiting for Pink. I have gotten no real updates from my agency since my out. If I had to guess, I think I will get the call in about a week.
My baby shower is Saturday!! I hope all of the Fall Beginners get out of PGN this week. PGN is such a hard wait. Contrary to what others say, PGN wait is much harder than the wait for Pink.

I'm here too...still stuck in the big black PGN hole.
There are WAY too many of us left...I am starting to think that last fall was not the best time for all of us to start! Here's hoping we are all in the big bundle!! ![]()

I too was wondering where everyone went. We are leaving early Thurs to pick up Arely- It's been a very long 13 months- We are elated to say the least. I see that others are moving along as well. For those of you who are still stuck- hang in there. Your turn is coming up...I may not be able to post much once we get home, but good luck to everyone and hope you have a speedy process from here on out.
Angie

Still Stuck In PGN
We still in without any news at all. It is definitely driving me nuts. I am assuming from reading other people's posts that we have been knocked out at least once or twice. Hoping good things will happen this week! ![]()

We got out of PGN on Friday and are just waiting for Pink now. It'll probably be a couple of weeks.
My heart is breaking for everyone who is stuck somewhere right now, whether it's PGN, FC, or whatever. My thoughts and prayers are with everyone and I hope things start moving along soon for you all.
