[quote=Anonymous]When my son turned 2, the time seemed right. Financially, housing, etc. But, well, nature decided for me with repeated miscarriages after my first. Followed by rounds of failed IVF. And then a failed adoption. The failed adoption was very hard on DS -- possibly harder than for DH and me -- because he desperately wanted (and would still like) a sibling. I couldn't try again though. It is emotionally exhausting "competing" with other hopefuls for a kid. Good news is that my only child is an amazing and wonderful person in his own right. Who knows what life would look like if the 2nd had panned out, but I am head over heels in love with my kid and happy with our little family.[/quote]
