  • Answer:

    Oh no honey, I'm sorry!!!! You can start by looking up local adoption agencies and contact them. I suggest going through an agency rather then directly with a person who wants to adopt. The agency will check these people and their backgrounds, living situation etc.. to make sure your baby will go to the right family that are a good fit for a child to be raised in. Personal note: This is very admirable of you to acknowledge that you are not ready and to make a good decision for your babies life!! Hats off to you and I wish you all the luck in the world!!

Aww, please don't look at your baby as some sort of sickness. Your birth control failed, so that shows your child is strong, resilient and determined! Why don't you give parenting a try for a few months? If it doesn't work out then contact an adoption lawyer. I would hate to see you fall in love with your baby after promising him/her away to someone else. I was a teen mother at 14, if you need someone to talk to please send me a message.

Talk to your midwife about it. They will be able to put you in touch with the right authorities.

Do a Google search for adoption agencies in your state. Talk to several before deciding which one to go with. Worst case, you can always use the safe haven law. If you don't know what that is, Google it for your state. I wish you the best of luck.

If you are in the United States, I would call 1-800-BETHANY. They can help you sort out how to proceed with placing your child for adoption.

adoption is a much better option than abortion any day. That said, no type of pregnancy protection is 100%. You;ve got your protection, make sure he wears a condom as well. That way next time you are pregnant you will be in a better place and ready to love and raise that child. Best of luck.

I'm so sorry to hear that you're feeling depressed, and aren't getting any support from your baby's father. Remember that you are not alone. I'd encourage you to talk to your parents or a trusted friend about this. Begin to build a support network that can help you walk through the difficult decisions and challenges that lie ahead. There are a couple of websites, http://www.optionline.org/ and http://www.heartlink.org/, where you can go and get some great support and information on local pregnancy centers. They will walk this journey with you and help you with any questions and concerns that you might have regarding your pregnancy and the adoption process. I'll be praying for you, friend. Please know that you and your baby are loved beyond measure, and I pray that God gives you strength in the days and weeks ahead. Blessings to you.

I am sorry about the situation you are in. You should just have an abortion - if your not too far gone. Now I hope you learnt your lesson, wait for marriage to have sex.

If you are considering adoption. My husband and I would adopt the child and pay for all expenses. We have already had a homestudy and approved to adopt. We are interested in any race or gender. BUT only do what you feel is right. Good luck. I know you will make the right choice. http://www.hopingtoadopt.org/index.php/family/letters/1159
