If you are unexpectedly pregnant, you might wonder what it looks like to make an adoption plan. An adoption plan might feel a little overwhelming at first, especially if you have never made an adoption plan before. As you walk through your options, it’s important to have support throughout your journey.
Getting Started
Some women might be hesitant to reach out to an adoption agency. It can feel overwhelming and difficult to know how to talk through these circumstances. Some women want to learn about their options from an adoption agency before they even tell anyone else they are pregnant. It’s important for every woman to know that contacting our team is confidential, and there is never any obligation to choose adoption. If you have questions about the process, sending a quick text to our team at (754) 666-2973 is the best way to get in touch. Reaching out to an adoption agency is simply the first step, and starting that conversation doesn’t require any type of commitment from the birth mother.
The Adoption Process
There are a lot of decisions involved in this process, but no birth mother has to make these decisions alone. It’s important to have reliable support throughout this experience so that you can make the best decisions possible for both you and your unborn child. An adoption agency will walk you through the birth father’s rights, covered costs, counseling support, legal information, open vs closed adoption, and more. As the birth mother, it’s normal to have a lot of questions throughout the process. Your situation is unique, and your adoption plan can be tailored to your specific circumstances. Some women also find it helpful to read stories from birth mothers who have already been through this process.
Choosing an Adoptive Family
Most birth mothers want to select the adoptive family for their unborn child. A lot of women have a specific type of family in mind, and it’s important to consider what each birth mother feels comfortable with. Do you prefer the child to grow up with other siblings? What kind of family values are important to you? Are there certain adoptive families that stand out to you? Our team has already interviewed multiple families who might be the perfect fit for your situation. If you do not wish to choose the adoptive family yourself, our team can also select the family for you. As a birth mother, you can make whichever decisions you feel most comfortable with.
Our mission is to provide competent and compassionate adoption services to birth parents and children needing a forever family. We want to hear your story and help you make the best decision possible for both you and your unborn child.
