IVF is very hard. Each time I felt like I had ,in a sense, killed someone. Each time I had the perfect embryos, actually, my fertility clinic used the to teach first year embryologist. None the less they just didn't stick.

We will be using, probably, Gladney out of Dallas Tx. My husband is black and they have the ABC program. ABC is a program for black and biracial adoptions. That programs is also based on a sliding scale fee. So like for my husband and I, we make between 75,000-100,000 a year, our out of pocket would be around $11000. There is also an adoption agency where I live and they start at $15000.

Are ya'll thinking about adoption? It's scary but you can always message me or PM me!:smile2:

I've had pcos for about 15 years and its always been managed by birth control. I was a bit worried about going off of it for a month prior to surgery, but I had no issues and now I'm a over a month out of surgery and have had no pain. However I have not tried to get pregnant, but its one of the major reasons why I decided to do this surgery to help down the road.

We are going through the foster care system So it is 100% free. The state picks up bill. We also get a 13000 dollar tax credit for the adoption. This is not the reason we chose foster care adoption but it will help. The Children in foster care are older. Most of them above the age of 5 and they have trouble past will need some extra TLC. But I wan to be a Mom and maybe that doesn't mean a baby but I can still give a child a a forever home.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
