Hi All
I have just found this website and this adoption thread has been so helpful.
I am in the second week of placement (boy 4 and girl 6).
I went through 7 miscarriages before me and my husband adopted.
Last week was their first week living with us and it was the honeymoon period.
This week they are obnoxious and testing the discipline we have put in place (they have never had discipline in their life, due to the neglect they went through).
I know this is because they are feeling more secure and confident, but in a time where I thought it would be exciting and fun, I am now going through some depression and regretting this.
I am hoping the further along this goes, and when they start school, it gets better.
My Husband is going through through the exact same emotions, he has helped massively and the fact I have his dad to call on and give me a break, is a big help.
Has anyone else gone through this?
Did it get better?
Thanks for listening to my rant...
