It happened to my sister-in-law within 6 weeks of adopting and to my husband's first cousin a couple of years later. I have read research, however, that says that adoption with pregnancy afterwards isn't that common.

We've seen a few other adoptive families in which this has happened. It can turn out badly, though, if the couple adopted in hopes of becoming pregnant with their "real" child and then treats the adopted child like poop after said "real" child appears.
