In April I learned I was expecting a child. The pregnancy was unexpected, but adoption seemed the more ethical route. Currently, I am approximately 8 weeks pregnant. I am an engaged female who is 24 years old and I am a college junior. I stand at 5'4, weigh 103 pounds, I am white with blonde hair, blue eyes, Italian /Irish, and I am creative, and bright. The health of myself, the father and the baby are perfect. The father's name is Hugo. He is 28 years old and is 5'11, 150 pounds, and has hazel eyes, brown hair and is Finnish.This is our first child. I am looking for a nuturing and responsible married couple who would meet with my Hugo and I in person to discuss this most important matter further. Our basic criteria is first and foremost the impression and backgroung check of the adoptive parents, and then we can move on to issues such as legal contracts, health coverage as I am not insured, financial matters, etc. If you are an interested couple, please contact us ASAP. God bless.

Honestly I dont mean to be an @$$, but I think it is very stupid to ask of that on an internet site that virtually any freak can get on.

If you are together with the father and engaged, why wouldn't you keep the baby?
I got pregant unexpectedly when I was in college in your same situation... engaged, waiting until after we graduted to marry... yeah, it was unplanned and it wasn't easy to finish school, but we did it and we've been together almost 14 years. We now have three kids and a great family life.
Shouldn't you consider what may happen down the road when you want to start a family and might not be able to? Wouldn't you want to take that baby back? Or if you do have more children, what will you tell them when their full sibling comes and wants to meet you all? Don;t you think they will feel rejected because they weren't "convenient" at the time?
I say if you are both together still and plan on staying that way, you should take responsibilty for this baby yourself. Whether or not it's the easy way to do things.
Or is the baby's father not the person you are engaged to?

This is an extremely emotional e-mail for me. I just came here for some parenting tips, I never thought I would be answering this type of question. My wife and I became parents in March through the unselfish act of a birthmother such as yourself. I speak from experience when I say that there are many loving and childless couples who are eager to adopt and raise your baby, if that is what you choose. If you place your child for adoption you will quite literally be the answer to a happy couple's hopes and prayers.
My wife and I went through Adoption Network (adoptionnetwork.com) in Lake Forest California. We have friends who used Lutheran Child and Family Services and extended family who went through Catholic Charities. A major law firm in Indianapolis by the name of Kirsh and Kirsh (kirsh.com) only does adoption work. One of the biggest adoption agencies in Chicago is The Cradle (cradle.org).
I am 100% sure that any one of these organizations will be ready, willing and able to provide any type of assistance that you need.
Please take care of yourself and your baby. On behalf of adoptive families everywhere, THANK YOU.

I agree!! This is NOT the smart way to do this!!! You seem like a person who really cares about the health of the baby, so why would you put yourself and your baby at risk by advertising (and that is what this is!) this way???? C'mon, be smart about this, and go thru the propper channels to get that baby a safe and loving home. Tell your OB you want to adopt the baby out, and she/he can point you in the right direction and can even help you find your baby a good home.
Please, please dont do it this way....there are LOT of freaks and wierdos out there who can and will hurt you and your unborn baby!!

Please consider using a legal adoption agency. Then you will know your baby has the proper home. And you will be helped out financially for the babies and your own care. They do have open adoption were you can meet the parents. Please consider this for the safety of you and your baby. Good Luck

Okay, you sound fairly educated so why in the hell would you ask a question like that in this setting??? Who do you think you'll find? Why don't you expend your energy on searching for credible adoption agencies?
bethany.org
adoptionnetwork.com
both should be good places to start.
