We're starting the vetting process for adoption agencies. We are looking at embryo adoption vs other options. No IVF, and have tried IUI as well as natural remedies. We're still trying of course, but ready to pursue other options. Anyone have advice?

First of all, be sure to have your thyroid checked. We went through all of the infertility stuff, and later I found I had low thyroid.
Then, consider an open adoption company. We did this, but it took a while to be chosen by a birth mother. Had to cry and pray a lot. The upside is that your child will know their birth familyāand this is actually very good (itās like having cousins or visiting an aunt.). They donāt suffer the abandonment issues. And itās good for the birth family because they are also grieving the loss of not being able to parent the child, but know the child is thriving. It is a tough issue to wrestle with at first, but I would argue it is the most healthy of all the possibilities. Read the book, āThe Spirit of Open Adoptionā by James Gritter.
