The birth father was served with papers this week notifying him of the adoption plan and his rights. Today, his attorney called our attorney. He's definitely going to fight it, and he's in a position to do so, so there is no point to us continuing to pursue it.
So far, we've spent about $20,000 trying to adopt and still have no baby to show for it. Not that this process is all about money, because it's absolutely not. But financially, we can't keep doing this forever. We're feeling very, very discouraged right now.
Please keep the birth mom in your thoughts and prayers. She didn't want this to happen. She's going to have to figure out a way to parent, and she's in a very difficult situation right now. This is painful and devastating to us right now, but it's even more so to her. Our hearts go out to her.

I am so terribly sorry, Rebecca. I don't really know what else to say--I can't imagine how hard this must be. You are in my thoughts.
I am so sorry. This is just a terrible situation. I'll be thinking of you.
This all seems to unfair, to everyone involved. I'm so sorry that you are going through this *again*.
I'm so sorry for all that you are going through. Thinking of you.
I am so, so sorry. I cannot begin to imagine what you, your husband, and the birth mother must be experiencing right now.
I'm so sorry, this just must be so unbelievably sad and disappointing for you.
