It's onto 2011

I can't believe that 2010 has been here and is soon leaving. Does time just keep going that fast the older we become?

So to really recap of what I have been doing and thinking the last couple months. So July was my last treatments of medication with Dr. K, at my last appointment I really felt I was being pulled into two different directions. One wants to do this and the other has this idea. I felt as if I really jumped into seeing a specialist too soon, I do have some time yet.

Fast forward to today, I had my annual visit with my OB. He has always wished the best for us in getting pregnant. He had mentioned of doing medication with him, either clomid or Femara. I thought about it briefly when I got home but being an OB they only know so much. I would feel as if I was telling him what to do or what to look for. An OB is limited in knowing what to do I feel.

In the previous months I did do some research of adoption agencies here in Michigan and other states. I called an agency that I was recommended too from a friend that was successful in adopting their son. The lady had stated that they were low on foster families and explained the whole foster care program. A few classes have to be completed first and then you are a licensed foster parent. Fostering is free but there is always that possibility of the child being removed and back to the biological family but sometimes not. Adoption can be very expensive and waiting could be longer. Adoption takes a lot more work due to the home studies and letters and profiles being done.

So we haven't discussed what option we want to do yet. Todd really doesn't want to foster because of becoming attached and the small chance of the child being sent back to the biological family. All I know is that I want to become a mother. I do have my two dog-sons but having that desire of becoming a mother is different. So to end 2010 and to begin 2011. I really hope 2011 is a magical year for us.

Happy New Year!!!
