well i will tell you right now, that adoption is something you will have to live with for the rest of your life. But the good thing is that nowadays you do have better options when it comes to adoption. You get to meet the parents and you get to get pictures of your child throughout the years so you can see them as they are growing up. Adoption some people are completely against but truth is that there are a lot of children out there that would be so much better off with two parents or even just one that was financially, emotionally and loving enough to raise a child, then just stuck with that stubborn parent that dont care about them once they are there. So if you ask me, if you aren't ready to have a child, do the one thing that is best for that baby and give it a home where they stand a fighting chance in hell of being loved and supported they way they need to be. I think if you choose adoption you are only doing the thing that's best for the baby. Not whats best for you or your partner or your family etc. etc. etc. Good luck in whatever you choose to do.

Well, based on what you have said before, that would be a good alternative to what you were thinking. Adoption is a wonderful gift that can make a couple very happy. You are giving them a gift which, for reasons only they know, they can't give each other. It is wonderful for them to be able to get a child after so long of a wait and the agony of knowing you will never have children of your own.
I'm very glad you are thinking about this. It shows maturity and respect for life to do this. It also shows the greatest amount of love that a mom can give her baby. It also shows great courage to do this.
It will be hard, if this is what you choose. Just know that you are doing something that will help your baby in the long run. You will give them the chance to have an upbringing with a mother and a father.
Find a support group for women who have also givin up their babies, and find someone to talk to about the pros and cons of your decision. You will need someone there for you every step of the way.
If you decide to keep your baby, you will have many challenges also. Most will be emotional, but also financial and physical. You will have to give up a lot to be a mom. You will have to grow up fast. I would find someone to talk to who has kept their baby to see what every day is like. Ask them if you can stay with them for a day and night to see what they go through every day. This choice won't be easy. Find someone to support you in this also, if it is your choice.

I think it is good and brave of you to take a hard look at your situation and to reach out for help.You have to way the pros and cons.Having a child is so very expensive, I have a 6mo old and I spend $125 a week on a babysitter and almost $200 on formula that does not include diapers baby wipes and baby food, and then the clothes and toys!!!There are so many wonderful couples who would love to adopt a child and many would be willing to have an open adoption to where you could still be a part of the child's life.So if you think you are unable for whatever reason to give your child the best chance possible please check into adoption.Good luck.

Are you a pregnant teen?
Remember children don’t ask to be born. We decide to bring them into this world and it should be under good circumstances for the child. Having a child is not about you, it’s about the child. These women not only give a gift to the baby by placing it in a loving and capable home, they give those that adopt a gift as well.
Children are still their own selves with their own souls and quite possibly will turn out to be nothing like you!! They will however be affected by whatever surroundings you raise them in, whether they have your blood or not. They may smile, run, sing, or walk like their birth parents, but their environment and the people they are surrounded by will be a much bigger impact to how they turn out, successful or screwed up.
Having a baby, can be one of the best experiences, but if you're seriously thinking that you can't take care of a child, then give it up.

If keeping your baby or not is somthing that you even have to think about, it is probably in the childs best interest, if you put him/her up for adoption.....as soon as possible.
The life of an orphan is most usually not a great one, but it has much better opportunity than growing up with a mother who does not cherish it. Why did you not choose to have an abortion?? You have now affected a life forever.
People critisize abortion for being a horrible and selfish decision to make, but is it not better than going through with bringing a new life into the world, and then abandoning it??
Please hunny, if you are less than 22 weeks pregnant, make your apointment today!!

I gave my 1st daughter up for adoption when I was 16. She still contacts me and knows the whole story behind why I did it, and she is ok with it. I think she turned out better than if I'd kept her. I'm 31 now and am going to go visit her and her family for a week this August. It doesn't have to be a bad experience. If you love your child enough to know that you are unable of providing for it properly, then you are a good mom. Don't worry, all will be the way it was meant to be. Contact me if you have any questions. Good luck.

well i read your other questions and it seems like you really do not want this baby... listen if adoption is something you feel like you can do PLEASE do it!
I personally could not go through with that.... I dont think that you have ruled out abortion, but based on your other questions it seems as though you cant afford it.
All I know is that I do not think that you should keep this baby for your self... you arent ready to be a parent, and you dont seem to have the level of compassion needed to be a good parent. YOu already have such bad feelings towards this child...what do you think you will feel like when it is screaming for you at 3 am?

Based on what I've read in your previous questions, it's obvious that you're not ready for this child. You're going to end up resenting the poor child if you keep it. I've read that you were taking suggestions on how to kill it before it's born. Not only should you put that poor child up for adoption, you need to get some professional help for whatever it is you are going through. Don't make this baby pay for your mistakes.

I'm not sure what your situation is. I'm sorry that your having a hard time. I do know that before you make up your mind that you really do need to think about what is best for your baby. No matter what you need to figure out what you really want and if you could live with the fact that someone else would raise your child and you would probable never see you child again. I know with me I could never give up my child. I have a 8 month old so I know that it can be hard. However like I said I don't know your situation, but please just think about what you really want for your baby. I hope that this will help you out and good luck with your decision. If you need someone to talk to please feel free to email me at cdavis257@cox.net. Good Luck.
