Plan A ... Failed; Plan B ... Adoption

I've never done this before, so please cut me some slack ... I hope to get the hang of it.

DH and I met late in life and married.  I was 37 and 49 weeks (okay call it 38 ...); he was just shy of 40.  A first marriage for both of us.  We want children and have critters.  Good critters we love very much, but it's not quite what we hoped for.  Following our beautiful honeymoon, we started TTCing.  First shot out of the box ... it WORKED!  And then came the cramps and bleeding.  I was having a miscarriage.  So ... considering my age, we tried IUI and finally IVF.  Nothing except pain and heartache (that is if you don't count the tears, feeling of loss, and major emotional breakdowns on my part!).  Through it all, we've been there together ... hand in hand ... every appointment, every shot, every "there's always the next time".  The RE told us to continue with IVF we would need a donor egg.  We decided if a baby couldn't be both of us, adoption was the path for us.  So, here we are ... next step is to take the local foster-to-adopt class and see what happens.  Look out ... it could be a bumpy ride!
