This is just so sad. All I ever wanted was to be a Mom. I do believe that everything that has ever happened to me has turned out exactly as it was supposed to, the good, the bad, need I say more? But this, I just can't grasp this. To me, a March '06 lid seems like it should be so close. Truthfully, it's the not knowing that is driving me insane, a common bond I share with you all. Thanks again R.Q. I'm draggin my sorry a _ _ to bed. Shelley ohhhhhhhhhh, thud,…. that’s me falling off my chair. This is just so sad.

That would be 4 years. I am sorry, but that just seems so so off. I cant think of how many times will our paperwork need updating, and the cost of all these updates and refingerprinting. We just went for our 2nd time at reprints just this month, on the 7th. I couldnt imagine going through this year after year. Yeah our agency told us we would have our daughter already (when we applied it was september 05) and they said you will have your baby this time next year. Well they were way off. Believe me, i am not blaming anyone, it just goes to show you, you have no idea what is going to happen. This just gets so darn depressing. This was going to be our first child. Then out of no where we got this little five year old, one month after we put in our dossier. A blessing? I dont know. But it sure makes the time fly knowing you have a little ray of sunshine calling you mommie, and loving everything you do and wants to be just like you. It does help... I am thankful for her....... Thanks... Laurie Bees,

I was looking at referrals in the past and referrals for 3/27/06 and 4/27/06 only included a few days each. So if I am reading things correctly, this has happened before and then they picked back up again. We have a LID of 4/20/07, so I am just holding out hope that this is just temporary. Thanks! Hi RQ

Do you have any stats for SN wait times? We just returned with our second daughter and are exploring the possibility of a SN/Waiting Child for our third adoption. This is all new to me, so I apologize if you have addressed this issue. Thanks, Joan www.chinamomsonline.com RQ –

So in order to see a referral in 8 months, China would have to refer aprox 18 days every month...Hope this helps! bees lhprecmom,

Not always have clients known about the speed up...our dear friends had a LID in late 2004, and were told 12 months. At the 6 month mark, they took a vacation and were called by the agency...where are you, you have a baby!?!? They were shocked! I agree with optimism.

I am not logged in yet, but should be by August. Would it be safe to say that I am looking at a four year wait at the worst? Three year wait at best? ANY help would be appreciated! My agency is saying that they just can't make any predicitions (and also keep repeating that the current wait is 16 months!) but it would be great just to have some realistic dates in mind. Thanks so much!! Angela Hello,

I have a LID of 4/7/06. Right now my wait is at 14 months. I have tried to quess when we will get our referral, and i am hoping no more than 8 more months. Does that sound too far away? Am i guessing in the right time line? With the agency i have there are still 7 groups ahead of mine. So i have no clue.. Thanks for all your help. I check out your web site daily... Thanks.

No surprises with the new chart for us. At this point with a 12.5.05 LID, I am holding on to the hope that we get DD#2 by end of this year! I truly believe it is still a good possibility. Who would have thought with 28 LID days to go, it would take 4-6months. It's always 4-6 months! Nuts and thanks again for breaking the wait down for us.
