More and more often I find myself thinking about adoption. Even from a younger age I’d always considered that one day I might try to adopt a child. Maybe not being able to get pregnant is the Universe telling me that this is how we are supposed to become parents. I don’t think I would ever stop trying to TTC but I don’t see why that would mean that adoption isn’t a viable option for us. I genuinely don’t believe that the love for a biological child would be different to an adopted one - am I being naive? In my gut I feel a lot more positive about the idea of adoption as opposed to IVF - I just don’t know if IVF would be right for us. I don’t see adoption as an easy route to starting my family as I know it’s not. If anything it’s probably harder than any other way of becoming a parent due to how invasive the process needs to be in order to find suitable parents. I know I don’t need to be related by blood to love another being - the ferocity with which I love my husband tells me all I need to know about that. I guess we need to do our research and think about how is best to move forward...
