Hello, I realise that I'm in a very fortunate position having 3 birth children, but the plan was always to have 4 until ds3 was born with a heart defect (thankfully corrected by surgery). This is more likely to happen again to a future child, so, coupled with our ages (41 and 44) and the fact that I've already had 3 miscarriages we've come to the conclusion that we had better not have any more birth children. I feel there is a gap in our family though and know we could give another child a happy home.
My question is: would we stand a chance as adopters or would sws think we are too old and have too many children? We would probably wait until our youngest is at school, so boys aged 5, 7 and 9. Thank you. X
