I've just been laid off and we are living off of her income. We do not have the money to support a child and ourselves.  We thought about abortion but we thouhgt it might be better to give someone else a chance to give this baby a good home.  We really need help with the doctor bills and rent.  These doctor visits are taking more money than I expected. Our electricity is off for the moment.   Anyway....  If you have a reply please send it to.  Dragginmychevy@yahoo.com. Thank you. God bless

    Hi!
    We found your question online…we are a couple who is interested in adopting a child.  If you want to find out more about us, we have a parent profile website at: http://adoption4yourbaby.com/

    Mostly, we hope you can find support through this hard time, and a path that gives you some healing and some choices that you can live with, no matter what you do.  There are lots of ways to handle an adoption decision - and online chat rooms and sites where you can talk with birth-moms who have gone through giving up a child for adoption... not an easy thing.

    You can contact us if you want to at marthapaul@adoption4yourbaby.com or toll-free at 1(800) 735-0934.   We wish you well no matter what.

    Martha & Paul


    P.S.
    Here are some sites with information ...we hope at least some of it is still current and might be helpful :
       1. BirthmomBuds.com - : http://www.birthmombuds.com  - this is a site that offers a mentorship program which pairs potential birth-moms with someone who has been through the whole process already and has placed a child for adoption.  Here is their application page: http://www.birthmombuds.com/pbmom_form.htm   They also have what they call a “buddy system” which has a page at: http://www.birthmombuds.com/buddy_system.htm    There is allot of stuff including stories from birth-moms and adoptive moms on this site.  See what you think!  

       2. AdoptionOpen.com - http://www.adoptionopen.com/adoptionevents/index.html seems to be a site with a lot of adoption resources from all points of view – that of birth-parent, prospective adoptive parent, and adopted person, including online support forums.  Not all the links I tried were current, but there is a Birth-mom Support link that was… and it is linked to the BirthMomBuds site and a bunch of others too.  One fun page they had was a list of famous people who were either adopted, were adoptive parents or birth-parents:  http://www.adoptionopen.com/famousadoptions.html

        3. Adoption.com has all sorts of blogs, info, etc. – but unlike many sites that deal only with families who are seeking to adopt a child this site seems to have a whole section that offers resources for birth-parents.  You have to sign in or become a member to view things, but the page on this site that leads you to the birth-parent section is:  http://forums.adoption.com/birthparents
