I'm gonna be a mommy!!!

Sooner rather than later! I got the call from my social worker today. We've been chosen to adopt our little guy! (I'll call him AB for now) We are beyond excited and couldn't be happier! We should receive his file next week and will be able to see what issues, if any, he has. Once we review those records, we give our official answer. Of course it will be yes! After that, we will schedule and adoption staffing and meet with his case worker, foster parents, therapist, etc. to put a transition plan in place and ask questions, get to know AB and what he likes/dislikes. Once that plan is in place, we will visit with him a few times and then he will come live with us. I'm guessing that this will take at least 2 months. Of course, this whole thing happened much faster than I thought so who knows! But we are ready.

I emailed my social worker today and told her that I was pregnant. I don't think it will make a difference, but I needed to let her know. I pray it doesn't make a difference. I still want AB to be my son!

I'm definitely looking forward to hearing BB's heart beat again on Thursday. Oh, forgot to tell you, I'm STILL on progesterone! This has got to be a record. We have been weaning me off but my levels went down hill weekly...44, 42, 32, 22...I'm still on one 200 mg supp. every other day. I'm praying it doesn't drop any more. What happened to this placenta kicking in and doing it's job? I've been told that as long as the number is between 18-25 that all is well...especially in the 2nd trimester. I'll be glad to be done with blood draws, that's for sure!

Please continue to send good vibes and prayers our way. I'm so very anxious about so much right now. It's a good anxious, for the most part!

PS - If you are my face book friend please do not post anything about this on my wall. Still haven't told everyone about the adoption. Thanks!
