ou're pregnant. For whatever reason, you
know in your heart that you can't give the new life
you're nurturing within you the home and quality of
life it deserves.
hat's the best choice for you and your
baby? There are women who will choose abortion. That
decision is between them and their conscience. But
there is another option. It may be as tear-filled as
it is joyous. It's the happy, giggling, kicking, crying,
loving choice of life. It's your choice.
ot too many years ago, if a woman decided
to "give her baby up for adoption," it meant just that.
She had no choice. She rarely knew anything about the
adoptive parents. Today, thankfully, the laws have
changed. Now, there is "Independent Adoption." The
birth mother chooses who will adopt her precious baby.
If the birth father wishes to be involved in this process,
he can also participate with you in choosing adoptive
parents.
he adoptive parents you choose may pay
for your doctors, prenatal care, hospital stay, living
expenses, maternity clothes, travel costs, and legal
fees. It's all part of what is called an Adoption Plan.
What it means to you, the birth mother, is that you
are in charge of your life. You control who will raise,
nurture, educate, and love your baby. The choice is
yours!
aking an adoption plan is, in many instances,
the most reasonable decision a birth parent can make.
It is often the choice that proves to be best for the
baby to be born. It is also beneficial for the woman
who may be unprepared at that stage in her life to
give up her career, her schooling, or her freedom for
the full-time responsibilities of parenting a child.
With our help, you will always be able to look upon
your adoption plan with contentment and feel good about
your decision.
he many, many birth mothers we have helped
in the past tell us that they appreciate the courtesy
we show them in our dealings, as well as our commitment
to honoring promises made. My staff and I are dedicated
to doing the right thing. We have always and continue
to be committed to providing birth parents like you
with the attention and guidance that you may desire
and that you certainly deserve. We hope you can be
proud of the loving and positive decisions you might
make in creating an adoption plan for your baby. I
am also available to speak with any members of your
family or of the birthfather's family about the independent
adoption process, if you wish every day of the year,
twenty-four hours a day.
lease call me--there is no commitment or
obligation in just talking and sometimes, as I am sure
you know, it is helpful to talk to someone outside
of the circle of your friends and family--someone who
can be more impartial. My staff and I are here, as
we have always been here, for countless other birth
parents, to help you make the best possible decision
for you and for your baby.
erhaps it is because of our reputation
that obstetricians refer their patients to our office.
Also, former birth mothers send their friends who get
pregnant and who want to make an adoption plan for
their baby to our office. If you'd like to find out
more about making an adoption plan for your baby, and
about how we can help you in your quest to do the right
thing, we're a free phone call away. You do not have
to go through this alone.
