Nicole, Have you tried birthmom buds? They have many women there who have/ or are in the same sitaution as you. Coley is one of the founders who is a birthmother herself and she is there quite frequently to talk to. Give it a try and I wish you the very best of luck. You and your baby will be in my thoughts and prayers! ... Kara J

I'm having a terrible time right now deciding if I want to give my baby up for adoption. It's one of the worst decions I will have to make in my whole life. I'm 5 and a half months pregnant and very stressed out. There hasn't been a day yet when I've been happy. I would just like to talk to someone that's going through the same situation as me,

Hello Confused! I'm really sorry you are having such a hard time. The best advise I could give would be to consider all of your options. Maybe a semi or open adoption would be the way for you to go since you are having these thoughts. That way you could either have visits with your child throughout its life or at least have pictures and updates. I have an adopted son and we are in an open arrangement with his first parents. If you would like to know more about us or if you just need to talk to someone who is on the other side of the fence so to speak, e-mail me .... Love and ((((hugs))) your way!.... Kara

Hi confused! I am sure you are stressed out trying to make a big decision- If the father is not going to be a part of it then you need to consider what is best for YOU and most of all for your baby. If you want to talk you can email me. Marlee1969@hotmail.com
