I'm a IBCLC, and I've worked with one other adoptive mother. It's not cheap, as you will do formula at first and there is something that you can take....but I could talk to you about it later. my email is potterkb@gmail.com.

Congratulations! This is SO completely exciting and I'm very very happy for you! My sister had twins and it's quite the adventure. I love that you were fasting and praying for her before you even met her. You're a great example and I'm glad that you're going to have such lovely additions to your family!LyndiLouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09911529026191820850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-859087402411630243.post-49562890947575783332011-02-21T14:21:51.822-07:002011-02-21T14:21:51.822-07:00How exciting!!!

I recently made a friend who works for LDS Family Services. I don't think connections help, but if you have any questions, I can put you in touch with her. Also, I think I told you that my aunt does foster care with "Act of Love". I can give you her email address if you want her to keep you on her radar (sometimes the adoption costs will be less than normal.)

And I can honestly say that during my time of having him for a piano student I really never had a moment where his autism was obvious. You and Kevin have done a great job with him and compared to how you described him at age 2, he HAS come along way thanks to the love and dedication of those around him. What a great kid with fantastic parents!Hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02060082579654057191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-859087402411630243.post-44408260388843375992010-05-04T23:16:54.770-06:002010-05-04T23:16:54.770-06:00Waiting can be hard for sure.

And I'm proud of Kevin for being patient and understanding. Sexual intimacy is such a huge part of marriage and becoming "one"--I think every couple (despite what image they may portray) at one time or another deals with balancing one another's feelings regarding this aspect of their relationship. How wonderful that you are on the track to healing. You're a very strong person and I'm confident if you continue having faith in Heavenly Father's ability to help you come through.Hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02060082579654057191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-859087402411630243.post-65916652464031404982009-09-12T19:19:48.663-06:002009-09-12T19:19:48.663-06:00Good luck with everything... here's hoping the...Good luck with everything... here's hoping the wait is short and sweet! :)LyndiLouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09911529026191820850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-859087402411630243.post-84851657753416234962009-09-11T17:39:59.912-06:002009-09-11T17:39:59.912-06:00I am hoping the baby will need blankets to match y...I am hoping the baby will need blankets to match your blog background.
