Hello, I have been reading this board for a while and would firstly like to thank the regular posters for their wisdom and thoughtfulness in their posts.
Our adoption story so far has been that we have been approved for nearly a year and had 4 links not work out at varying stages but mostly at very late notice (via foster to adopt).
We have been linked to another little one and while the link is perfect on paper I feel completely indifferent. It isn't that I don't want the baby, it's just that it feels like another baby that probably won't become mine and I don't know that I can go through it all again. My partner is keen to go ahead and I'm kind of desperately hoping that I will feel something (anything) once the baby is here.
Any experience or advice would be very welcome as I didn't feel this way about any of the other links.
Thanks

Has anybody ever felt indifferent about a link with a positive outcome?
