Adoption?

I was adopted/in foster care and I'd really like to adopt and do foster care someday...maybe sooner than later.

We're considering it. I always thought when I was younger that I would adopt, but DH wasn't on board with it. Now that we're faced with having to do IVF, it's on the table. Not sure how/when, but the idea is there

Yes we have considered it. We hope to have our 2nd child and then possibly adopt a 3rd. We both feel like there are already so many kids brought into this world who aren't "wanted." And we would love to love them and spoil them

I've thought of it but not really talked about it with DH. I'd really like to have at least one first, and I don't think that DH would consider it for our first until its apparent we aren't going to conceive ourselves, God forbid that happens. But I'd seriously consider it for the future.

I have always wanted to adopt/foster. I agree with Ninja mommy 100%. I would like to have #2 then love/spoil an adopted or foster child.

Dh & I have talked about it, originally he agreed to do foster care this fall but I think we'll wait until next year. We've talked about adoption within a year if I don't get pregnant and maybe if I do...

We talked about adoption when our first DD came along, we wanted to have a couple of our own then adopt one, but we ended up having three of our own and plans changed so it's not in our future plan now.

I have always wanted to adopt but DH is adopting my kids and I know that he would really love to have one of ours together. He already thinks of mine as his and said he is open to considering adoption in the future but he really wants one of us. I am not sure if we would ever adopt though because we are already a big family. Maybe foster when the kids get older and start going there own way.
