Why Should I Create an Adoption Plan at My Local Adoption Agency?

By Gabrielle Maya 

At Adoption Choices of Kansas, we cannot stress the importance and the value of an adoption plan. As an expecting mother, all you should be worrying about is the health and wellbeing of you and your baby. Let us take care of the rest when it comes to your adoption. However, we cannot do it without you, so we help you create an adoption plan at the very beginning of your adoption journey. Adoption plans serve as a guide for birth mothers and walk them through the adoption process. It tends to make it easier and less stressful for the birth mother. The whole purpose of an adoption plan is to ensure that everything is planned out ahead of time, such as a hospital plan, an adoptive family, type of adoption, and anything else that might be important to include.

What is The Importance of an Adoption Plan?

 The birth mother creates an adoption plan with a licensed adoption specialist at the beginning of the adoption journey. It helps you develop a long-term plan to determine your preferences and what is in your best interest. As a birth mother, you are entitled to make every decision along the way on behalf of your child. You still have parental rights until the final papers are signed after your child’s birth. You and your child are the most important people during this process. Consider all the factors of your life in determining what you need long-term during the adoption process and post-placement. 

The importance of an adoption plan is that it offers a sense of relief to birth mothers. It allows them to be prepared for when the pregnancy starts to become too much. Pregnancy, especially an unexpected one, is not always easy for birth mothers. It can be emotionally draining and stressful. Our local adoption agency in Kansas recommends creating an adoption plan for when it gets to that point in your pregnancy that you do not want to do anything. You already have a plan set and when you need to do certain things. Think of your future and where you see yourself, consider how your future self might feel, and make decisions. 

What is Included in an Adoption Plan?

We know you want to create the best life possible for your child, so you have chosen to place your baby for adoption. When creating an adoption plan, you are probably thinking about your child’s future and how you want them to grow up. When creating an adoption plan, things that you will be deciding are your preferences on the adoptive family then choosing one. Next, you will select the type of adoption, how much, and what kind of communication you want post-placement. Finally, a little something for you, you will think of a hospital plan and who you wish to have with you. It is optional to have someone by your side during birth, and it can even be your adoption counselor. However, it can be a very emotional time that no one should have to go through alone. These are all things to consider but create an adoption plan unique to you and what makes you feel comfortable during your pregnancy.

We want to make you feel comfortable and confident in your decisions. Remember, you are not in this alone. We are with you every step of the way. If you are ever in any doubt or have any questions or concerns, talk to us. We are always happy to answer your questions and reassure you of anything.
