Hi, I have one DS who is 5 months, and whilst I can't imagine my self as a mother of 1, I also can't imagine wanting to go thorugh pregnancy/birth again (although I know my feelings may change on this as the memories fade). I'm just tentatively thinking that maybe adopting a second child could be the answer.
Do many people go abroad to adopt? If I were going to adopt I would like to help a child in another country, but I'm not sure if that is a feasable option for us as I know it can be very expensive and it would be hard to justify that with DS already.
Also, how many people adopt through SS? How lengthy is the process roughly? How would I even begin to get started as being considered?
It seems like the most complicated minefield but it is something I would really like to at least consider.
