I thought about an abortion, but if I can help a couple, then why not.How can I find couples wanting to adopt a newborn in about 5 months time?
I imagine through Social Services.
Please just make sure you've thought it through very well first. If you do decide to go ahead, there'll be plenty of couples who would give their left arm to have a baby.How can I find couples wanting to adopt a newborn in about 5 months time?
go to an adoption agency or try social services
by the way
i'm glad you didn't have an abortion and you are helping somebody else but next time try not getting pregnant if you don't want to be then you won't have to ask this

hello we are a home study marred cuple age 35 and 40.We would love to adopt you baby.Please contact me if you would like more information.Thanks Christine
Have you contactedSocial Services or a Pastor? Go talk to someone you trust and can help you that will give you good advice for you and the baby. I hope things work out for you. I will keep you in my prayers.
Oh honey!!! I think that there are plenty of us out there looking to adopt... Itsaboutlove.org is one and parentprofiles.com is another one that I'm aware of.. I would adopt....thanks.. hope you find the dream family for your little one...
Bless you, you are doing a very brave thing.
Just make sure you have really considered properly, whether or not you want to give your baby up, no one can force you either way.
If you have a midwife or Doctor that you see visit them, you will need counseling of some description.
They will help put you in contact with an adoption agency or social services, who will help you through the process.
Take Care of your self x
Me and my husband can not have children at all thats what the doctors told us. So all we can do is look for a child to adopt but we are having no luck yet. Adoption we were told would cost between 10,000 and 100,000 dollars to adopt a baby so we have to find a person that wants to give their baby up for adoption ourselves because adoption is really expensive. You have a chance if you decide to give the baby up for adoption give the baby a better life and who knows you could be an ANGEL sent from God to give me and my husband the chance to be parents or if not us people like us. I will be your friend if you ever need to talk you can e-mail me or message me on yahoo messenger my screen name is kitten16_18 and my e-mail is kitten16_18@yahoo.com don't hesitate to e-mail me or message me on yahoo messenger if you ever need someone to talk to about anything anything at all I will be here for you to talk to I will be here for you no matter what. I Promise and I never break a promise.
Get advie from social services, your doctor, helplines, type it into Yahoo serch for adoption agencies. Good luck x
You'll get killed in the rush. Contact an adoption agency or through the hospital you're going to.
My husband and I are looking to adopt.....but please do not trust everyone who responds to you on here. Go through an attorney and be sure that they have done their classes and home study.
Ask them lots of questions (no question is stupid) anything that concerns you or anything that you want to know about your child's adoptive parents.
Follow your gut and your heart. You will know what is right for you and your baby. Feel free to email me, if you need to talk or have questions. (regardless of what you choose to do)
Bless you, good luck and don't forget to follow your heart in any part of this decision.
= )
go to an adoption agency then you can interview parents and pick the one you want
Me and my husband, consider us please. Pray and ask God for guidance at this time, he will help you. God bless you, you seem so mature.

You really shoud apply to a registered Adoption Agency - or your Social Services or Doctor, this way you know your baby will be going to a well matched family, and the the baby will be safe and well loved. Adoption is a huge commitment to both yourself and the prospective adopting family -make sure you are doing what's right for you - not other people. Although you are clearly considering adoption now - you will be advised that your first decision is not the only time you are asked if you are still commited to the adoption going ahead. I don't know your full circumstances, but having adopted our son 34 years ago, I do appreciate what a very brave decision you are about to make, and it will be a life changing action for the prospective adopting parents. All I can say is that both my husband and I can never put into words what it meant to us to adopt our son, and the pleasure he has given us over the years. On the other side I also have a very close freind who had her son adopted 40 years ago, she has thought about hin every day since he was adopted,. Your baby will always be part of you no matter what you decide to do, I really wish you all the luck in the world. God Bless.
You need to ask your doctor about options, because he or she might know the best way to put you in touch with the right people as quickly as possible. I hope you find the best place for your baby. I am pro-choice, but I think what you are doing takes great strength and shows kindness.
Whatever you choose to do, can't you see a state counsellor to help you think this through? You don't want to have the baby and not have really thought this through properly.
Please go to your local social servicse department - contact details will be on your local council website.
Please do not think by having your baby adopted means you will never see him or her again - If you want you can maintain contact (sometimes face to face) with your child after they are adopted.
There are also many other options open to you as well as adoption. I strongly advise you speak to your local social services. Contrary to popular belief they should be very supportive and understanding.
Good luck in whatever you decide x
it must be a very hard time for you, but i think that you should go to social services and maybe talk to them before you make any decision's and if at the end of it if you still want to give your baby up then you know that they will help you and the baby. also you know that the baby will be going to a safe place
Try an adoption agency. Your state has many places where you can go. The process for an adoption is very long to go through in each state. Some let their friends or parents take the child. The best way is the state becasue of the rigorous classes and training and interviews that are done before adoption. Many people out there would like to adopt, but be careful of the ones who would take advantage of the child- use the government. Protect the child.
You could contact Family to Family Adoptions Inc. They are located in Texas, but take care of loving birthmothers all over the country! They will help you find the perfect match for the baby. fam2fam.org is the website, and you could get their contact info from them. We used that agency when we adopted our daughter, and we were highly impressed with how they handled everything...Birthmother needs, our needs....everything!
They have a 5 star list of employees, and we will contact them again when our daughter is 2 years old!
You have plenty of time. Call a licensed adoption agency and speak with a counselor. Look in the phone book under ';Adoptions';.
Make sure to tell them you are married, as he will have to sign a Relinquishment for the baby to be adopted. They will do a marriage search as well. This will safeguard the adoption and prevent him from coming back years from now and seeking custody. It happens!
Good luck!
If you use DSS you will save yourself and the family alot of time and money. We just adopted and love it. DSS was helpful, less expensive than agencies and they will know right off hand who is searching for a child near you. You have to be sure about this. There are alot of emotions for everyone envolved and if you are not certain it will cause damage to all parties involved.
The safest way for you to find a loving home is to contact several of the adoption agencies in your area and find out more about the process in your state. It's wonderful that you choose to give this child life but remember to think about all that is involved. Choosing adoption can be wonderful for a couple who desperately want to raise a child but be absolutely sure this is something you really want. Often times mom's find it difficult to carry through once the child arrives. Talk all this over with an adoption specialist and don't just allow them to just make a plan without working through this with you. Best of luck.
if you go and talk to the local social services they will be happy to help you, and you will be safe in the knowledge that anyone they recommend to have your baby has been thoroughly tested and police checked. and your baby will be safe.
Making an adoption plan for the child is a very loving choice! I know a lot of women who carry a lot less guilt %26amp; regret for choosing adoption than abortion...I know a lot of women who have a lot of guilt %26amp; regret for having chosen abortion.
Contact an adoption attorney or agency local to you. ';Interview'; them to find the one you feel most comfortable working with. After that you can decide how open or closed you want the adoption to be (ask the agency/lawyer about your options). And then you can select the couple you want to raise the child you're going to give birth to.
First off you... I like to tell you Are doing a a great thing... you are giving your child life. Go through a adoption agency, or social services.. it will not cost you a thing. I would not recomened responding to anyone's post here saying they want to adopt your child.. I'm sorry but there a process involed... that protects everyone involed. You can also look into a open adoption that way you may still be able to have some contact with your child after birth { photos, letters, gifts, and sometimes a chance to visit once in a while} Talk to your Dr. they can get you in touch with the right people. Good luck and God Bless you.
If it weren't for women like you I would not have my son!!!
Thank you!!!!
Jakes Mama
Go to an adoption agency
I have been through the same situation...albeit it's not quite over yet.
I explained my wish to my midwife who sent a referral form to social services.
You are then visited and talked to to see how you are dealing with everything and counselling is offered.
Then there is a big placement meeting and constant checks to see you are still happy with decision. You can have as little or as much input on choosing the family as you want...i chose a family who cannot have children conceived naturally as i didn't think it was fair i could have children but wasn't ready at this point and yet they cannot.
Your wishes are then sent through to the hospital you will be giving birth in and then it is down to labour and birth all hopefully going okay.
Hope this helps ;) and please make sure you get any support you need as it is not as easy as it sounds but can be got through xxx
You need to think about yourself first and think why you wnat to adopt the baby, if it is because you do not want to bring another child into the relationship you have then please for your sake leave him, you will end up hating yourself and him if you give away your child because of him. Sort your situation out before you make any hash decisions and think about the child you already have, and you deserve so much better do not sell yourself or your son short please.
There are many good agencies assisting in adoption. Check locally. We are hopeful to adopt and actively looking to adopt an infant.
my husband and i have talked about adoption but of course if we did we will go about it the rite way.leave me a message if you want to talk.mcdanieljoanie@yahoo.com
