| Misty | Posted: Jul 11, 2006 03:38:34 PM What a stressful situation for you. Remember you need to make the decision that will make you happy and what will be best for your baby. It's a hard situation and a hard decision. If you do deceide that adopions is the choice that is right for you and your baby there are so many loveing and able families that would take wonderful care of your child. We too are hoping to adopt. Our first child was born in Guatemala, and though we never had the chance to meet her birthmother, we have much respect for the choice and sacrifice she made. Please feel free to reply if you would like to talk more. | ||
| Melissa | Posted: Jul 10, 2006 05:31:57 PM My prayers are with you. My husband and I too, can't have children of our own. We are looking to adopt. However, you need to decide how and what YOU feel, not your boyfriend. I'm sure you love him dearly, but this is something YOU should really think about. Maybe you might find an open adoption is for you. I wish you all the best. Reply if you would like to talk about different options. | ||
| SF | Posted: Jul 10, 2006 01:51:44 PM I can't imagine how overwhelmed you must feel right now. You said your boyfriend doesn't want the baby, but before you place the baby for adoption, you must be sure that its what your heart is telling you to do too. There are so many families, my family included, that are awaiting the blessing of a baby. We adopted our son two years ago, and it has brought more joy to our lives than we could have ever imagined. I hope that God can lead you through this time in your life and help you to make the decision that will be best for you and baby. | ||
| Breanna | Posted: Jul 07, 2006 05:57:21 PM I am 19 and pregnant. My boyfriend doesn't want the baby and will make me move out if I keep it. I know that adoption would be the best thing for my child but I would still like to hear what everyone esle thinks. | ||
