Our Journey Through Infertility With TESE, ICSI, and IVF.
Scratch That! Our Journey Through Domestic Infant Adoption
Monday, October 31, 2011
Finalization
We received our finalization date! It is 11/23, so we'll have a lot to celebrate this Thanksgiving. We'll have a conference call with the attorney and judge in Florida. Thank goodness we don't have to travel back to Florida.
Couldn't resist posting a little Halloween Picture!
Congrats on getting the date and no travelling (and lucky you, you'll be getting some great tax benefits by filing this year!) Little miss A is ADORABLE!
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.
