The wait is excruciating!

Hi ladies,

Just wanted to see how you are all holding up in the "waiting game". I am feeling a little stressed out today and the weather is not helping Chat Icon

Anyway, we got a call from Cathy last night and she said she was sending us a wiaver because the baby has a birthmark on her right flank, which we already knew about. Anyway Korea needed us to sign the waiver, saying that we still want our daughter even though there is a possible medical/physical problem (When I took the original medical records to the Dr. , he noted the birthmark and said that he didn't think it was anything to worry about).

Well, the waiver came in the mail this morning, DH and I went to the local bank and got the four copies notarized and then he drove them to NB. When he was talking to Cathy, she said that this is a good sign b/c it means the US Consulate is going ahead w/ Tiana's final physical, which is part of the visa process. But, she wouldn't give us any timeline, just said July looks reasonable...

Now that it's getting so close, every day feels like an eternity. Auntie Jenniffaaa, my mother and MIL threw me an amazing baby shower two weeks ago and this baby has everything she could possibly need. The bad thing is that every time I walk by the nursery my heart just skips... I just cannot wait to get our little girl home!!!

Oh well, sorry for venting. I know that by the time she gets here, I will forget all about the wait... but in the meantime, I just pray that she gets here safely and that she's healthy... Chat Icon

I hope everything is going well for all of you.. Liz

I can't believe that they need you to even sign that you still want your baby..over a birthmark!
Can you even imagine!

I am sure this is getting sooo hard. She will be HOME very, very soon.

WE signed a class b waiver for Tia because of a "hemangioma" which is one of those strawberry birthmarks. I dissappeared by the time she was 2. It will be ok.

I know the wait is hard, but keep your chin up. She will be here soon.

Yeah this weather stinks!

Wow, congrats on finishing your nursery and having a shower! How Exciting! I know the wait must be SO hard now that you know what she looks like and have everything all set up for her. But you KNOW it will be so worth it when she comes home. C'mon wait time -- hurry up! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
