A family we just met told us of an organization that offers grant or help to those who want to adopt. ...Add that to asking loved ones to help you adopt by giving to your "baby fund" on birthdays and holidays might just be the answer to hope in adoption. The website the family gave me for the grants is: http://www.showhope.org/AdoptionAid/Miracles.aspx<br /><br />Blessings!

God's plan is what it is...already set. Let go and Let God and see where He takes you on this. Have you talked to your dr about adoption? Could your doctor be not looking out for what is in your BEST interest? You have a lot of years invested on that path. A new path started to open up. Maybe THAT is the path God wants you to take. Just my thoughts randomly spilling onto this page.

Of course.<br /><br />Long and short of it was to pursue whatever combination of things you feel called to. The more avenues that are open for God to work through, the better, imho. Of course, if you feel hesitation over one or the other, do some prayerful discernment- but keep in mind, it is often very common to get "cold feet" for either of these two roads.<br /><br />I know in retrospect I was very glad I decided to pursue both simultaneously. You never know what God has planned for you, but that shouldn't scare you from trying ;)Amy @ This Cross I Embracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04766112822487858490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3086515951454178468.post-87326593120908795042012-11-13T18:25:26.013-06:002012-11-13T18:25:26.013-06:00You are right...whoever makes up these silly rules...You are right...whoever makes up these silly rules...didn't walk in the same shoes as you and all of the other women out there who are dealing with IF. <br /><br />You never know what treatment plan will do the trick.

Also, I think it's fine to pursue both means of having children. I was literally in the middle of an ultrasound series when we got the call. I figured I would do what I could both ways and let God decide for us. I really had a hard time giving up treatment when we didn't have a baby. Now... I honestly don't know if I want to go down that path again. <br />Hugs! Praying for you.

I speak from normal cycles and a lap with 13 yrs "unexplained" infertility behind me. It's just exhausting to keep trying and trying with nothing happening. At least with adoption you WILL get a baby....

The questions of how much of the adoption fees and paperwork could be held if you did get pregnant are good ones. <br /><br />The only thing I can offer is that your Napro doctor's suggestion is only for two more cycles. Though I'm sure that feels like forever while you want to move forward in some direction (any direction!), it is such a short time in your overall journey.<br /><br />I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers as you try to decide what to do.Stephanie Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08435698159183117354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3086515951454178468.post-63525281214274947542012-11-13T12:14:55.867-06:002012-11-13T12:14:55.867-06:00i am the kind of person who likes to pursue all op...i am the kind of person who likes to pursue all options until one becomes clear (either through a sense of peace/knowing or an obvious external circumstance like pregnancy or a placement). are you allowed/able to pursue both at the same time for awhile? i hear you on the child spacing.. i get antsy about that too.

I don't know how God will write your path to Motherhood, but you are open to any way possible by pursuing both paths. <br />Can any money you've spent be put on hold if you end up not Adopting? We listed with two agencies (one large, one small) and the larger one is "holding" our deposit since we didn't adopt through them.All in His Perfect Timinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00300978285191861049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3086515951454178468.post-48302659400512073422012-11-12T21:52:15.568-06:002012-11-12T21:52:15.568-06:00Praying we both get pg with next cycle with our lo...Praying we both get pg with next cycle with our low dose HcG. :)Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09136169986057927090noreply@blogger.com
