The Best 3 Reasons for Choosing Adoption Early in Your Pregnancy

Are you ready to be a parent for your child? If you already have children, are you able to support another child in your family, or do you feel your family is already complete? How are you feeling emotionally about having a baby? Raising a child is no easy task and is one that shouldn’t be taken lightly. If you are a pregnant woman and feel you are not ready to be a parent to your baby, then choosing adoption early in your pregnancy will be the next best option you should take with your child.

If you have any questions, concerns or doubts, contact one of our outstanding birth mother counselors, social workers, legal representatives or caseworkers at Adoption Choices of Kansas and Missouri. We will be happy to assist and clarify everything for you always.

Reason #1: You are not ready to be a parent

Being a parent to your child is a wonderful part of life, but if you are unable or not ready to take on the responsibilities of parenthood at this time, that’s ok. Being a parent to your child takes dedication, responsibility and sacrifice, among other traits. Perhaps you are focused on other priorities — graduating high school or college, getting a promotion at work or becoming more involved in your career. Maybe you already have a family and are unable to afford another. Whatever stage of life you are in — we are here for you. We will be honest with you when speaking about how to proceed with your adoption process, and will provide you with every available resource you will need to get through it.

This is where choosing adoption early in your pregnancy comes in. You need to understand that you are undertaking a major responsibility. Understand that your child’s needs will be above your own. Your child will be your top priority and focus. Your chosen adoptive family will be able to provide for your child financially, feed and take care of him or her to ensure that your child will live in a safe, positive environment full of love and support.

Remember, you are not alone and we will help you whenever you need it. We want to make sure you, and your baby have a positive, successful adoption process.

Reason #2: You Already Have a Family and Want to Help Complete Another 

If you are pregnant with another baby, and are already taking care of your other children, then you should consider putting your baby up for adoption. Having too many children can place unnecessary stress on you. By having an extra mouth to feed, and an extra child to take care of, you may not be readily equipped with the essential physical, mental or financial resources needed to provide for your child.

If you were to pursue the adoption process in Kansas or Missouri with your child, then you will be giving another family the opportunity to have the family they always hoped for. This way, you will be able to continue to take care of your own children and you will know your child will live a better life with their new family. There are many families who are waiting, hoping and praying for the chance to be parents. By gifting your chosen adoptive family your child, you are fulfilling someone else’s dream of creating a family of their own and not giving up on your child. They will be able to provide a wonderful life full of love, and support for your baby.

Reason #3: You are Alone and Don’t Have the Support of Family and Friends With You

While having your baby is exciting, it can feel overwhelming. It can all be too much for you to handle as well. Right now, you are going through an immensely emotional time in your life. If you need to have a strong and close support system by your side during your process, we will be here to support you. In addition, at Adoption Choices of Kansas and Missouri, we will be happy to provide you with helpful pre and post-placement counseling services. All of our adoption services we offer you will be free to use at your disposal whenever you need them. We will supply you with helpful support groups nearby that you will be able to go to for extra support, and to help you through your grieving period after you have given your baby to your chosen adoptive family.

If you are having any doubts, fears or second thoughts at all, then please contact us. We will be able to help you along, step-by-step through your adoption process. You should feel both positive and happy about giving your child a better life through your adoption process. Always remember, you will never be alone when you are going through your process because we are all here to support you.
