Hello I just wanted to introduce myself. I'm so glad I found this site as most are American adoption orientated. DH and I have been TTC since August 2008, with multiple miscarriages including the late loss of our daughter Chloe. We are attending information sessions for both LA and PC in the next few months and will go on to the education sessions in a few months.
I might drive you crazy with questions. I'm excited and apprehensive about the whole process.

Thanks ladies. We haven't discussed adoption with our family yet. We're waiting until after the information sessions. I'm sure they will be very supportive.

Hi,
we only told family and the friends we are using as referees. Sometimes with it being such a long it is better that way. Do you know which agency you are going to go with yet?

Hi Cluckylollie, ( sometimes I wonder how we all come up with some of the names we use), I wanted to welcome you too. I am so sorry to hear about Chloe, my sister in law lost her son just after birth and it would be really hard.
No, you will not drive us crazy, but take time and read some earlier posts, you may find the answers you are looking for.
Welcome...
Waiting.

Kay- we were just going to go through DHS. I don't know much about agencies but I'll give them a call to see what extra information they'll send me.
Waiting- My username started years ago when I was super clucky for a baby but not ready to TTC yet. Lollie was my nickname in highschool.
