Another Match

About a month after our first match failed we were matched again through a friend this time. The birth mom was/is 28 and already had 4 kids. Everything seemed rock solid. She 100% wanted to place the baby. Said her sister has infertility and she's always wanted to help a couple that couldn't conceive. The baby boy was born on 4/22/10 at 10:30 am. 6 lb 3 oz and 19 3/4" long. Beautiful baby. Unfortunately 12 day's after he was placed with us the birth mom changed her mind and took him back. She hadn't signed over her rights yet so legally she had every right to take him back. That was last week. At this point I can't imagine going through with another adoption. Our profile is back up to be viewed but I don't anticipate we'll be matched any time soon. We've been matched 3 times and none worked out.

I truly cannot imagine your heartache. I really can't. All I can say is I'm sorry, but I know that is not good enough. You have been through so much. I don't know what the future holds, but I just hope it holds peace for you

That is horrible. I'm so so sorry.

Forgive me for asking, but have you ever considered international adoption? At least they are more final after a match...but I realize it is a completely different ballgame.

Wishing you peace and strength.

international adoption is WAY more money then going with our current agency. We'd pay 20-30k for international vs $4-10k with our current agency. But yes it has crossed my mind.

Sending much love.

I stumbled upon your blog. My heart goes out to you. Depression is horrible but wanting a child and not being able to conceive just adds to that. I wish I knew you and could give you a hug and tell you everything would be better. I pray you have your own baby soon.
