Today's the day. Still nothing, but I'm not surprised. Does anyone know if agencies put you to the top of their "lists" if you have a failed match? I've heard from a few people that it probably won't take us long to rematch. Any experience with that?
Just like when I was shocked that I didn't get pregnant right away, I am really shocked that this has probably happened. I don't know why we always think we're above things happening to us, but I felt so strongly about adopting and I was so sure that it would happen quickly and painlessly for us. I can't wait for two weeks just in case she's late. We're taking it a day at a time, but Friday will probably be our limit. I don't want to give up on a child who may need me, but I'd also like to be able to move on if that's what I need to do.
Where is our baby? I want him/her to come home.

Quickly and painlessly, huh? That exists? :(
I'm sorry that it probably hasn't worked out. I hope you're surprised, still, though.
I know how you feel about thinking that SURELY if we've "realized" that adoption is what we want to do, it'll be quick. SURELY after all that wiating it was because we weren't doing something right and now it'll work out.
Ugh. Waiting blows. I hope you baby comes home soon.
I'm so sorry. I would move on too. Get out there & get going again. Talk to your agency, see what they suggest. Go find your baby.
Hey, if "she" happens to call after giving birth, & it all works out at that time, then YEAH! And it might. But until then, keep searching. Good luck.
I thought about you several times today because I did remember that today was "the day". I am truly sorry that this is happening to you! The most important thing to do is not to give up hope. If this is not your baby, you may need to mourn that loss. But then you need to get up, dust off your fanny, and get back at it. Your son or daughter is out there somewhere. Your family will continue to be in my prayers!
I'm sorry your heart is hurting like this. I wish there was something I could do to make it easier--but sort of like trying to get pregnant, after you do everything you can, it's out of your hands. And it sucks. And it's frustrating. But know that there are a lot of people cheering you along on the journey who are there if you need a good cry or a celebration at the finish line.
