So did I! But then I thought, no that is old footage.

They were on ANDERSON recently and if they've lost another round, they sure did a good job of hiding it.

I don't care about being right, but this time I hope I am.

Hmm.. I see the next new shows, on the 17th.. and the second one does say something about putting the recent egg retrieval behind them and focus on their crazy work schedules" so.. that doesn't sound good.

I don't believe the first implant was 4. I think they had 3, but implanted only 2.

Definitely said in the 2nd show Tuesday that none of the 4 embryos implanted and there was no pregnancy. & that they were trying again.

I wish I had been wrong but that was how I interpreted it, that the four didn't take.

I remember the first time she said she was "optimistic" the second time she was "cautiously optimistic" and the next time she was going to be flat out "pessimistic".

Well the good news is that it would be hard to think they wouldn't get approved for adoption and pretty sure they can find LP babies who need their love and vast experience with being LP and all that entails.. and even with mom, dad, two dogs, one set of grandparents local and yet another dog.. not to mention the good publicity for adoption in general and LP adoptiong too.

But I still wanted them to succeed with the surrogate as well.

Maybe they will succeed with the surrogate in the future. They sure seemed like they would try again at least once more.

I've only seen this show a few times but they both seem like such truly nice people. I hope they get a child in whatever way works for them. Any child would be lucky to have such upbeat caring parents.

I think with her age increasing and the amount of pain and danger even when they do the extractions, she felt that there would be a limit to the number of times they tried.

I also feel that they are some of the nicest people ON tv. I'd sure be happy to have them as neighbors and friends.

Another reason for heart break. Bless their hearts, to go through the pain of retreaval and then no eggs. Ugh. I admire her so much for wanting to keep trying. Wonder if they have considered using an egg donor with Bill's sperm?

Haven't heard them mention that possibility.. and they are already starting the approval process for adoption (or were back then).

Yeah.. with all the cute babies for the 16 & pregnant/Teen Mom bunch.. any baby would be lucky to land with Bill and Jen.

Wow,long time since a post to this thread. These are some very special people in so many ways.

Anyone know when they might be back on?

Also, I fear for the safety of gestation and delivery.

I just want nothing but the best for them.

Sun, they ruled out having Jen carry and deliver a baby some time ago; they are using a surrogate, so far with conception but no success.

It seems like they have one of the shortest seasons of any show, or it is just that I like them so much. I don't know when they will start again.

Dr. Jennifer Arnold and Bill Klein Adopt a Boy with Dwarfism
By CHARLOTTE TRIGGS

Dr. Jennifer Arnold and Bill Klein, also known as TLC's The Little Couple, have brand new monikers: mom and dad.

The reality stars, both of whom are little people, have adopted a 3-year-old boy who also has a form of dwarfism.

"We are thrilled to announce that we have adopted a beautiful young boy from China," the couple said in a statement to PEOPLE. "We are so proud to welcome William to our family and look forward to bringing him home."

On their TV series last March, the couple explored adoption after their surrogate suffered a miscarriage.

"My entire life, even before I met Bill, I always thought, 'Oh, I'd love to adopt a child who is another little person,' " Arnold said on the episode. "And Bill and I talked about it after we got married, and I think we both realized we both would like that."

Fans can follow the couple's adoption journey on the new season of the show, which premieres April 30 at 10 p.m. E


I'm SO happy for them!
