I’ve delivered, but I’m considering infant adoption for my child
During an unplanned pregnancy, it’s hard to predict what life with a newborn will really be like. Once you can finally say, “I’ve delivered!”, factors may come into play that you hadn’t considered. Maybe the father or your family aren’t there for you like you expected, or you struggle to make ends meet while dealing with the demands of motherhood. You love your baby, but you’re considering whether infant adoption might be better for both of you. Our Texas newborn adoption agency can help you learn about this option, so that you can make a decision that brings you peace.
Exploring infant adoption after your baby is born
Some women realize while they are pregnant that they aren’t ready to be parents, but for others, that realization doesn’t come until the baby is actually born or they bring their baby home. Many struggling mothers are surprised to learn that placing a newborn for adoption is possible even after the baby is born.
Considering infant adoption may feel heartbreaking after you’ve grown to love your baby. However, it can also be the best way to secure a safe, abundant life for a child. With modern adoption, mothers can not only choose their child’s parents, but can also decide how involved they’d like to be in their child’s life.
You don’t have to go from “I’ve delivered” to “goodbye” when you entrust your child to a loving family who supports staying in contact with you. The goal is always to do what’s best for the baby, which often means maintaining a healthy, loving relationship between the baby’s mother and the adoptive family.
In some cases, choosing infant adoption gives the mother more control over an out-of-control situation. When Child Protective Services is involved, for example, parental rights may be terminated, or a child may be placed into foster care, leading to an unknown outcome. The loving choice of adoption gives a mother control over where her baby goes, and leaves the door open for an ongoing relationship between mother and child.
