I Want to Adopt
Quote From: dannastaffIam 20 years old, with a 4 1/2 old son. I am my son birth mother. I am 19 weeks pregnant. I am considering adoption, but I am wanting an open adoption. One of my closest friends was going to adopted the baby I am carrying, but I am not sure if it is going to be good for our friendship. Would that be good for a friendship? Honestly, I would perfer to do adoption than have an abortion. (Even though you can have an abortion in the state I live in until you are 24weeks or 6months.)
I am not sure how my family is going to react to my choice or how to tell them my decision. The biggest problem I am going have is with the father of the baby Iam having. I am not sure if he would sign over his rights even though it is in our best interest. And I really don't want to go through the long process of the whole adoption thing.
I need someone advice on how to tell my family I decide to put the baby up for adoption!!! Can someone please help me out on how to tell them? I would suggest you call 1-800-ADOPTION. American Adoptions is a wonderful, wonderful agency. They will talk to you, give you suggestions and guidance and be there for you if you do make the choice to select adoption for your child. They can connect you with an adoptive family, get you assistance with living expenses, legal advice, etc. They are there to listen to you and to help you. Best wishes to you.
