12/06 Desperate to Be a Mom

Quote From: drendo1

      If the wives are desperate to have a child to love and raise, why don't they consider adoption?  If they have had the money for fertilzation clinics, they should have enough for adoption.  Is it really wanting a child or feelng good about themselves?  Why hasn't Dr. Phil suggested this?

For people struggling with infertility, making the choice to pursue adoption is difficult and scary. It can feel like you are admitting failure. There are fears of all the things that can go wrong with adoption. I had trouble with infertility and when someone first suggested adoption to me it just made me cry. It was like they were telling me to give up. After months of prayer and thought I was able to realize that adoption wasn't failure or an option of last resort. Adoption is just another way of achieving your dream of becoming a parent. I couldn't come to this realization until I was ready.
