As a couple we decided not to go the IVF route. First neither one of our insurance companies covered IVF treatments and we were not willing to sacrifice our financial security. We decided to adopt and have been blessed with a beautiful son who is taking all our money.
Congratulations! I'm glad that your patience with the adoption process paid off for you and your family!
