My Adopted Baby

Mabel A asked:


I’ve been looking at many adoption agencies in the last couple of days to help me make up my mind. I was going to get an abortion due to lack of money, I wouldn’t even be able to pay for the food ill be consuming in the next couple of months not to think of the hospital bill.Until my friend told me at adoption agencies I can find a couple who r willing to pay for the bill. Is this true? I’m not trying to sound like I’m all about $$. But I’m a full time student and a part time worker wit already bills over my head for da next couple of decades. I just can’t kill a baby. It’s not his or her fault. They shouldn’t have to suffer. Please help..
I’m from R.I by the way.

I placed my baby for adoption several months ago. I’m really having a hard time. People look down on me and say that I am selfish. I chose what was best for my baby. I wanted my child to have the best chance at a great life. I think about my baby every single day. Some days are okay, but on other days, the pain is so strong i can barely stand it. I don’t have many people i can talk to. I don’t have much support from friends and family. They seem to get annoyed when I want to talk about it. Will it ever get easier? Will the pain go away? Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can deal with this and feel better?

#1: Baby Boy due April 8, 2010! asked:


I’m 21 weeks and 4 days pregnant with a baby boy. I’m 19 years old and am weighing out my options: parenting or adoption.
Personally, I don’t think I’ll ever be able to get over placing my son up for adoption, but I’m looking into it.

How much does it cost to place your baby up for adoption through an agency?
How much does placing your baby cost…in total?

Thanks to all and please to rude or criticizing remarks. I have not decided yet. I appreciate your kindness.

Baby Liam due 6/8/09 asked:


I think she is way to young and has a life in front of her. My mother see the baby as child # 8.( which I am the Oldest of) My sister will do what she is told.She is terrified Icant be the only one that sees it. I want to tell her se has an option. I just dont know how with out being chastized. Then I will be un able to help at all. Did I mention No One was aware until yhey had to do an emergancy c section that she was pregnant. You think you would know,but you would be suprised on wht a baggy t shirt and some nevity can hide.

bye bye asked:


I am just thinking out loud. But I was told December 24 when I filled out my daughter’s birth certificate that I didn’t have to list my husband as her father if I didn’t want to. What changed from 2 years ago? Is this an attempt to make a married person easier to give a baby up for adoption?
It was the social worker. She wanted me to hurry up and fill out the birth certificate. I hadn’t even started.

xo asked:


Plus I would love to see myself in my child a bit selfish but hey who doesn’t? I would adopt if the process was easier ):

amy asked:


I am 17 and made the mistake of becoming pregnant with an 18 year old guy who has a criminal record that consists of everything from felony theft to battery of an officer (please don’t ask me what i was thinking, i’ve already beat myself up plenty over this), and now i have made the decision to place the baby for adoption with a family who will be able to take care of it like him and i never could. I have broken up with him due to his unwillingness to quit smoking pot, cigarettes and drinking throughout the course of my pregnancy (or afterward, for that matter). He has no job, is living in someone’s basement, does not have his license or a car, is on probation and still owes money to the state. The baby is due on February 13th.
He plans to go to court and fight the adoption (which, by the way, would be worked out in such a way that he could see the baby whenever he wanted), and god only knows what he would do with the baby if he won.
The family i want to place the baby with is taking care of me throughout the pregnancy (he did nothing but buy me a shirt once) and will be paying all of the court expenses.

I already know all of the legal ins and outs, but what i want to know is:
If it were YOU on the jury, would you rule in favor of him, or the adoption?
See, actually what i was looking for was a plain and simple answer, not your unwarranted (and incredibly judgmental) opinion.
I am doing this because i want the baby to have a good life with a family that can take care of him or her, not because i don’t want to take responsibility. Actually, this is my way of taking responsibility for my actions in a way that works out best for everyone.
If you think it would be better for me to keep the baby in a bad situation just because “it’s his (like ‘it’ is a pair of shoes or something)”, well then, you’re just being ridiculous.
Let me know next time YOU make a tough decision, so i can be there to criticize you for it when i don’t even know what the hell i’m talking about.
