Update

We're being sent the contract from our agency this morning. Our potential birthmom is going to see a doctor and have an ultra sound to check gender, but most importantly, to check for damage done by drugs. She'll also have another drug test. I'm struggling so much with trying not to get too excited and too hopeful. I feel like I've waited for so long to be able to match and shout it from the rooftops, but now that it's so close to actually happening, I feel hesitant. I just don't know if I could handle it if something falls through. I know adoption is never a guarantee, but I feel like the next six weeks waiting for the baby to be born and then the wait for her to sign is going to be very emotional and stressful. Do I go ahead and buy more stuff? Once we find out the gender, do I buy some little clothes?
This is SO scary!!
Thanks for the support! :)
