I have adopted and later gave birth. I can tell you from personal experience that I love them both the same. If your friend's husband really wants a child, he will love that child regardless of whether or not the child carries his genes...unless he is a very self-centered person who has to have everything his way. My husband, like me, was so glad to finally have a child after 10 years of marriage that the minute my husband held the baby, he fell in love with him. We have never once regretted our decision to adopt and would have done it again. We got close 5 more times but, unfortunately, it never worked out.
