Hi everyone, my husband and I are beginning to consider adoption after 4 years of infertility and one cycle of IVF that resulted in two miscarriages. We are interested in early permanence as a route to building our family but are concerned about whether we can afford to do it. I am an M6 primary school teacher (with experience in attachment theory) in a London fringe area and my husband works full time for a university. We own a two bedroom maisonette. I feel that we could be good candidates for adopting but I'd love to hear from others who have been in a similar situation. I know I would have to give up full time work but I'd almost certainly still need to work part time to keep on top of the bills and mortgage. Looking forward to hearing from everyone.
