Update

It's been 3 months of being "on the books" and we are still waiting.  We are okay with this, so far. :)

After our short, but great connection with Sarah, we received contact from another birthmom in NC, who was only 10 weeks along.  I chatted on the phone with her and afterwards didn't feel like she was our birthmom.  For SML and I, there were too many red flags with her situation and we just didn't connect.  We learned from our adoption coordinator that this birthmom was speaking with 3 or 4 other adoptive families and we were not one of her top choices.  All is well. 

As for being marketable, I believe it continues.  We had 5 letters go out in February (one to Sarah).  We are consistently having 1-2 hits on our website per day.  We were "favorited" by another birthmom just over a week ago, which means our website was flagged during a search by a birthmom, for easy locating and returning to. Yay!

Both SML and I have had the same feelings so far regarding contact from birthmoms.  We felt that we would be contacted early by a birthmom; and we feel that our next contact will be a little later; not quite yet.  Until then....we wait.
