Awesome is right! I figured out Sophia's probable conception date and realized it was the same day we announced to our family that we were starting the adoption process. God got busy making my dream come true. Somehow things fall right into place. It really is amazing.
After trying to conceive for 8 months my husband was diagnosed with azoospermia. He has a rare mutation of cystic fibrosis and is missing his vas deferens. We tried IVF with TESE one time but it resulted in a BFN. We started our domestic adoption journey in January 2011 and our baby girl was born 8/15/11. She is totally worth the wait, tears, and heartbreak.
