Well, it's been 2 weeks of pure pure craziness. We got an unexpected call about a potential birth mom. After 5 days of struggling with many of the issues that would come with this match, we decided not to take it. It killed me as you never think there will never be another offer again. 2 hours later, voila! Another offer came in that we were the back up family for. It was a frantic 30 minutes of faxing drug tests results to our pediatrician, reading through the profiles and having to make a quick decision. In the end, the first family took the match. Whew....what a few days we had!
We had a nice weekend and on Monday morning got yet another call about a good match and we were very excited about, especially since the baby was due in......3weeks!!! Craziness. As life would have it, we believe this one is a dead end too as the birth parents now can't be found.
I guess when folks say that it's a roller coaster, they are not lying! It's exhilarating, stressful, and a little depressing BUT we are still so early in the waiting game, I am sure something great will come of all this.
We are buckling our seat belts this time!!
