Two engineers get married, delay baby-making and get hit with the unexplained infertility stick. Eight years: multiple failed cycles; 3 failed IUI's; 1 long adoption wait and successful adoption (Baby X); 2nd long adoption wait, 1 failed placement, 1 failed match and finally 1 successful placement (Baby Z). This is my story.
What? Seriously? Could they get any more invasive for the homestudy? I've never heard of that before! Next I suppose they will ask you to get a colonoscopy so they can get really up close and personal. Or maybe they'll be good with just a good ol' fashion cavity search?
Seriously what does that tell them about adoptive parents ability to be a parent?
Oh my, oh my, they certainly don't like to make it easy on us...
No kidding! Especially since we had to have physicals (as required in our state) when we applied to adopt. Those included HIV and Hepatitis testing. This is one of those super annoying hoops.
