Hello everyone!

Rachel, I am so sorry for your BFN. I am quite new to the boards and don't really know a lot of the girls but I can tell you are a wonderful person, as is everyone and deserve the very best. Good luck with the adoption process and keep the faith alive. Miracles do happen. Enjoy the rest of your stay in the US.

Jeck, good luck with your home study and I am sure you and dh will get your baby soon.

Congrats to wannababy for the BFP!!!!! Enjoy the rest of your pregnancy!

As for me, ':cry:' af got here today so I am starting my 3rd and last IUI cycle and if this doesn't work, I will take the IVF route. You ladies have been very strong and courageous and have given me the strength to pursue this rollercoaster ride if need be. Thank you Jemma for adding me in the special prayers section and I will continue to keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.

Good luck to everyone else in the 2ww!!!!

Anna :cry: :cry:

Hello everyone, soon it will be my prayer time. Everyday I light my prayer candle and think of you all. I pray that we all find the kind of joy that motherhood brings. I pray that we always will be strong and be surrounded and supported by people that truly love us and care for us.

A prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console;
To be understood, as to understand;
To be loved, as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
And it is in dying that we are born to enternal life.

Hey Ladies!!

I just wanted you to know that all your prayers worked!! My home study went wonderfully!! I am so excited and from the way the social worker talked today there is just 1 couple ahead of us so we will get a referral of a child after they get theirs!!! Oh my gosh!!! We might have a referral very soon... WOOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!! Can you believe it ladies I am going to be a mommy next year!!!!!! Image

She also said we were the most informed couple that she had ever had!! Thanks Google!! LOL!!!
Image

Now if we can get hubbies birth certificate here then we can rock and roll!!!!
Image

I am so excited!! I wasn't bad at all she just interviewed us individually and ask about our childhood, upbringing, our marriage, our losses and stuff like that... She was very easy to talk too and not as bad as I thought it would be!!

We are going out to celebrate tonight!! Image Hope all is well with you all and thank you so much for your thoughts and prayers, I couldn't have made it with out them!! Image

Please continue to keep my little one in your prayers, for them to be home with us as soon as possible!!

Lots of love and prayers!

Yippy Jeck!!! I'm so glad it went well for you. We all knew it would! I'm changing my prayer a little now since home visit is over! Praying that everything continues to go smoothly and your son/daughter comes home to you safe and sound and SOON!!!

Take care everyone! As always you are in my thoughts and prayers!
Have a great day tomorrow, I have to go to a baby shower in the afternoon, I hope I am not too uncomfortable. :cry:

Jeck

That is amazing news. I am so pleased for you. I knew that the study would be fine for you but am staggered how quickly it might happen for you. I have good friends in London who have been in the process 3 years to adopt from China. They had 4 rounds of ivf before too. They have been trying for their little one for 8 years. They are v close now but wonder why it takes so long to adopt in the UK?

Hope that you had a fab celebration last night with your dh. How terrific.

I'll say prayers that it continues to move along really smoothly for you.

Lots of Luck
Carolyn xx

Jenn - guess we are lucky in the UK that ladies do not really have baby showers. Be strong. Will think of you as sure that it is hard to be happy for your friend even when you try to be. Hugs xxx

Hi All,

Jeck - That is really fantastic news, I can't believe it all happens so quick over there, me and dh have looked into adoption here in the UK and it deffinatley takes longer than that!!
I know that you are going to be a fantastic Mum and Dad and your child is going to be an extremely lucky one!!
I will keep you in my prayers!!

To everyone else, you are all still in my prayers and hope that all you 2ww's get your beautiful BFP's next week!!

Thank you for all of my prayers, they again have done the trick and my follies did grow enough for retrieval on Tuesday!! There are alot of them there and it looks like I will have to freeze them all and have FET next year, but it has taken me so long to get them to grow that I don't mind so much!!!!

I hope that you are able to pray for me on tuesday that I get lots of eggs from my follies, and I will continue to pray for all of you!!

Take Care

Hey Ladies!!!

I just wanted to say Hello and sorry that I have been MIA but alot has been going on... Before we started the home study we called about a baby boy on photo listing and they told us to call back when we had a time line on our homestudy... we did but got the ladies voice mail so we left a message and then we didn't hear back from them until this past MONDAY. She had been in Guatemala and was just now able to return our call. She asked where we were in the process and we told her and she was really excited and asked if we were still interested in the baby boy and if we were she was going to see if the attorney would be willing to hold him for us.... She also said that she would over night us his pictures and videos to us. We got them yesterday and he is so cute. She also called back yesterday and said that if we wanted him the lawyer agreed to hold him so he is ours if we want him!!!!!! So we are going to be proud parents of a little boy!!!!

I have so much paper work to prepare that I haven't be able to post here like I would like!!!

Just know that you are in my thoughts and prayers and your prayers are working for me!! Please keep our son in your prayers that we are able to get him home as soon as we can!!!

Thank you for all your wonderful support, I would never had got to this place in my life!!!

Love Jessica
