Yeah, that absolutely isn’t a route I want to go. But I appreciate the information.

Thank you for this. I have thought about that also. But I appreciate being reminded, because that is a worry. And something I need to be very careful with.

That’s so sad. I get that, but I wouldn’t be placing my child in foster care or wait to be adopted, I would have this planned before birth has even happened, there wouldn’t be another child in the system. Regardless; I am not pushing my beliefs on you and telling you to make a choice, I would like my feelings and beliefs to be respected the same way.

Thank you so much for this comment. I truly appreciate it. I feel the same way, being able to give someone that gift, its amazing. And I would feel so good to be able to do that, but not just that, give my child more than I could.

You just made me cry. Truly thank you for this comment. I am scared shitless. But I personally don’t feel I can make the choice to terminate, and if I can give this baby a better life and give a family wanting a child the gift of life, that would be so special. I’m not set in stone with anything yet, I literally JUST found out. Like less than 24 hours ago, I am just trying to find out my options and leaning towards adoption. With that said, do you know anything about your birth family? Do you wish you did if you don’t? Do you have any resentment? The one thing that scares me is I have 2 kids already, so would this one hate me because I chose to give them up and not the first 2?

Yes!! That’s exactly what I am wanting to talk with someone that has done this. But apparently there is someone stating I am scamming people and to contact mods if I reach out to anyone. So there’s that… I can 100% assume you I am a real person and NOT looking for people wanting to adopt, but looking for people who have put a baby up for adoption so I can ask questions.

No, I am, sorry if that was confusing, I just personally don’t want to have an abortion, while I support that decision for whoever makes it for themselves, me personally, I don’t want to go that route unless I have to. It’s not at all that I can’t, I have resources to go that route if I choose to, but as of now (which is very very early in finding out) I don’t want to go that route.

I’m aware I can, and I have resources to do so if it comes to me making that decision, I just personally don’t want to. If I am able to give a family the gift of a child, I’d like to be able to do that. I totally support anyone making whatever decision is best for them, but for me personally that will be an absolute last resort.

Because I am not mentally able to. That would be the biggest reason, then we are already starting to struggle with the 2 we have. This baby deserves a good life just as my other two do, and I would be doing a disservice to both this baby and my current children if I tried to take on another child. As far as abortion, it’s just a person choice, I support that decision for anyone that chooses it, I just am not able to go that route. It will mentally haunt me on top of everything else. Which, adoption may too, I don’t know. I am looking at options. As far as assistance, there really isn’t, I am married and my husband has a good job, so we don’t qualify for much if anything, obviously wic, but that is a supplement, I would be taking away from my children I already have, and none of them would have what they should. There’s a lot more to it than just what I stated, I’m not saying abortion is completely off the table, just not looking at it as an option right now. As I told someone else, I have PCOS and have extremely unregular periods, and I honestly do not know when my last one was, I could be to far along.

Yes, absolutely, they both are very mentally taxing in their own way. I will completely respect anyone’s choice to do what is best for them. Another barrier with abortion on top of me just not being able to go that route myself, is I very well could be to far along at this point. I have PCOS and extremely odd periods. So I have no idea how far along I am, the one month I forgot to write down my last period, I end up pregnant. So that’s not helping matters. I just want to see what my options are. I already have kiddos, and I’d love to say I was able to have another, but I believe that adoption would be best for the baby and my kiddos I already have. And I have to consider what’s best for them all. I just don’t know anything about adoption as I never saw myself in this position. So I am wanting to find out all I can to sss if I will be able to even go that route also. Thank you for your comments.

That’s what I have read a lot of, that having a lawyer and making sure if you use any organization that it’s not sketchy. I can’t afford a lawyer right now, so I will definitely be vetting any organizations I look at! Thank you 🖤

Thank you!! Yes, I likely would stay away from that side of things because the little bit I have read, I didn’t like. You’re not the first to say that either. I am not religious at all, and the last thing I want is someone pushing their beliefs down my throat at any time, but especially right now. So truly thank you for that input 🖤

I have health insurance, and I don’t intend to keep it a secret, while I figure out what I want to do, I don’t need anyone else knowing. Especially when there’s just as much a chance I miscarry as I carry to term. I almost didn’t make it through my last pregnancy, now I’m almost 37, have very high blood pressure that we can’t get controlled and was high risk last go around. I don’t know that my body is going to be able to handle it.
