You all bring up some good points.

I'm new here and adoption has always been my first choice. I know almost nothing about either adoption or AI, so I came here to see what my options are.

I've spent a little time on the Adoption.com forums and one thing I've seen is references to failed adoptions. I've also seen other comments like the one above about IVF being no guarantee of bringing a child home while with adoption you can reasonably expect to bring a child home.

The two statements just don't jell. To me, the first statement would seem to be more true. So which is it? I know neither way is absolutely 100%. But statistically speaking, what are the chances of a failed adoption? What are some of the common causes of failed adoptions and is there a way to reduce that risk?

I've also heard references to how expensive adoption is. Surely there's a moderately-priced avenue to adoption. Isn't there???
