Adoption Roller Coaster

It’s bad enough to have gone through  IUI(intra-uterine insemination) once  and IVF(in-vitro fertilization) three times and nothing came out of it. The roller coaster of emotions was hard to explain. Looking back, I was glad to have tried what is out there that could have helped us have at least one mini-me or my husband’s replica.

How about the more complicated way to adoption?

My husband’s childhood friend and his wife have tried local adoption. And this brings me to this issue because he recently spoke to my husband about their current plight. They have already spent quite a sum – two failed prospects, both mothers of the unborn babies changing their minds in the middle of the negotiation.

Personally, I may not be able to handle such rejection, more so if  the process is almost sealed. Bless them! Their persistence and steadfast resolve is prodigious.

My husband is very much open to the idea since day one, but since then and as of the moment, I’m 90% against it for reasons that are easily comprehensible but may not be acceptable to some. Since the last failed IVF, we never had another serious talk about it, and frankly it may not happen again.

It’s very disappointing to say the least but I have since learned to accept the fact that it may not be in the cards for us to have one. After all, it’s utterly difficult to have everything we want in this life. That – being the only thing missing, each and every single day of my existence I never fail to thank God for this blessed and charmed life.

    thanks so much for your kind words. Really appreciate it.

  • That’s alright, Sis!

    Sometimes I have the same apprehension, that I might not be able to get pregnant, too. I am not getting any younger. But everytime I tell Scott of my fears, he would often tell me that a child comes from the Father. Young or not, if it’s His will, we will be blessed with one.

    Thanks for sharing, Sis and God bless you and your husband always!

  • Sobrang agree ako sa ‘yo dyan, J! It’s almost next to impossible to have everything we want in life. Though you may not have that one thing – yet, you know how blessed you are! Real blessings come in many forms.
    I know a lot of friends and relatives who had difficulties in getting pregnant When they adopted a child, they soon got pregnant. Just sharing.
    Have a great week ahead J!!

    Scott is really right as a child is really a blessing. No matter what you do, even with medical intervention hindi mapupunta sa yo kung hindi para sa iyo. I believe that everything happens for a reason. malay mo, baka nga pang-kawang gawa na lang kami. we hope nga madagdagan namin yung scholar namin.

    oo nga eh, but I’m not even thinking of that little one coming along anymore. as you said, blessings come in many forms and I know that asking for more even in the form of a child is kind of asking for more. baka sabihin ni Lord sobra na ako hehe.
