The first set of heartache can come after years of trying to conceive, then getting a diagnosis of infertility. This may be followed by more years of heartbreaking fertility treatment.

Even after that, adoption is not a foregone conclusion. It is another huge decision and starts a new ball rolling in a different direction.  Many couples spend many months considering whether adoption felt right for them.

Its not a natural transition from infertility to adoption.

As well as the grieving for the newborne baby of your own that will never be, there are suddenly new decisions to be made.

Adoption from home or internationally?

Which adoption agency to choose?

One child, or two, or three?

What about special needs children? Which, if any, special needs would you be able to cope with?

After all those decisions have been made, the path to adoption is complicated and slow.

Its only when you are finally united with your adopted child that the years of heartache melt away.
