Learn how adoption can open new opportunities for pregnant women
When the pregnancy test turns up positive, and your initial reaction is shock and fear, try to remember to take a deep breath. It’s perfectly okay to not know what to do next. Many women feel lost and uncertain when they are pregnant but are not ready for a baby. However, please remember that you have options. Parenting may be possible with the right support, and choosing adoption can open new opportunities for your life that you may never have anticipated. Take your time, think things over, and reach out for help.
Adoption in Texas can open doors to a better future
For some pregnant women, placing the baby for adoption is an obvious and only choice. For others, it can take time to think through the difficult decision of whether to raise an unexpected child or find him or her a loving home with another family. The good news is, you always have time to decide. So, take time to breathe, rest, think about what is best for you and your future, and consider what kind of life you want for your child.
Adoption can open new opportunities in a variety of ways – and some of them may surprise you.
Be part of your child’s future
For some expecting mothers, it may feel impossible to say a permanent goodbye to a baby placed for adoption. But with modern adoption, you don’t ever have to say goodbye if you don’t want to.
Our experienced team can help you define your vision for what your future relationship with your child will look like. We help you put the legal documents in place to ensure that your child can grow up knowing you, with gratitude for the gift you gave them of a happy life. There is immense peace of mind in knowing that your child is growing up loved and cherished, and that they will always know you loved them so much you wanted the best for them.
Get the support you need in challenging times
For some women, choosing adoption is necessary because they simply don’t have the financial means to give a baby a safe home or the opportunities they feel a child deserves.
Maybe you feel that you’re just not mature enough to handle the 24/7 job of raising a child, or perhaps you’re worried about how you’ll manage to get the right medical care, food or even maternity clothing to get you through a pregnancy. Maybe you’re not in a good relationship and want your child to have a stable, secure home with two loving parents.
Whatever your situation, our caring team is ready to support you if you are considering adoption in Texas. There is never any cost to you to place your baby for adoption, and there are many resources available to you to ensure the safety and support of you and your baby during pregnancy, birth and beyond.
Chase your dreams
Think back to your childhood, and remember how you always wanted to travel, fall in love and get married, earn a degree, pursue a career, or help others by volunteering or giving back. When you’re not ready for a baby but find yourself pregnant, you may feel like all of those hopes and dreams you had for yourself are slipping away.
Placing your baby for adoption in Texas with Legacy puts you back in control of your own future. You will choose the adoptive parents, and you will be able to choose what role you want to play in your child’s life, too.
Find your inner strength
One way that adoption can open new opportunities comes as a big surprise to many expecting moms. We hear time and time again that moms who chose the loving gift of adoption learned something new about themselves. They moved from anxiety and fear to a place of peace and joy.
It is never an easy journey, but the reward comes in finding an inner strength that many mothers never knew was possible. These moms find that they can tap into that strength again and again throughout their lives, as they pursue their own goals and build their own families in the future.
