Birth Mother Matters in Adoption 6: Open vs. Closed Adoption

Birth Mother Matters in Adoption 6: Open vs. Closed Adoption

Your adoption choice, open, semi-open or closed, is one hundred percent your choice. An uplanned pregnancy and an adoption choice does not have to mean that you never see your child again. If you are on the fence as to deciding between an open or a closed adoption, most birth and adoptive parents find that speaking and meeting with one another before making a commitment, helps them to decide whether to move forward with an adoption plan. Meeting in person allows the birth and adoptive parent(s) to get to know one another and often provides the birth parent(s) with the confidence of knowing that they have selected the best family for their child. Many birth parents who have ongoing contact with the adoptive family, find that receiving information about the child and knowing that the child is thriving, helps to ease their feelings of loss. Birth parents and adoptive parents can decide to communicate directly with one another before, during, and after the adoption process is complete. That contact can take place in many different ways including through the exchange of emails, letters, phone calls, Skype calls, and in-person visits. If you are facing an unplanned pregnancy and considering adoption, a licensed adoption agency is your best option. Local licensed adoption agencies can meet with you face to face, hold your hand when needed, and can remain with you throughout your pregnancy. In addition, you can visit your case worker after placement. Lastly, a local licensed adoption agency will be able to assist you with resources in your area and may even be able to provide transportation when needed. Building Arizona Families is a licensed adoption agency that can walk with you every step of the way. We would love to hear from you to find out how we can help. You can call us 24/7 or text us 24/7 at 623.695-4112.

BirthMother Matters in Adoption Ep 2-179- Will Someone Want to Adopt My Baby If

BirthMother Matters in Adoption Ep 2-179- Will Someone Want to Adopt My Baby If

Birth Mother Matters in Adoption Season 2, Episode 179- Will Someone Want to Adopt My Baby If... When adoptive families come into our program, they fill out a preference sheet, very similar to a preference sheet that you, as a birth mother will fill out.  In the adoptive families’ preference sheet they will select if they will accept substance exposure and which substances, along with a range of questions.  The reason for a preference sheet is so we make sure an adoptive family is placed with a baby that they can handle should any issues arise If you are pregnant, regardless of the situation- we can help.  There are adoptive families that are wanting and willing to adopt your baby.  Your baby can have the life you want him or her to have.  So, if you are pregnant and are considering adoption, we are a licensed, full-service, non-profit Arizona Adoption Agency.  We believe in adoption aftercare services and have a program on site to provide continued support through the Donna K. Evans Foundation.  You can contact us 24/7 at (623) 695-4112.
