Is Choosing Adoption in Kansas the Right Option for You?

 If you find out you are experiencing an unplanned pregnancy, but feel you are not ready to take care of the baby, choosing adoption in Kansas could be a great option. While it is no doubt a difficult decision, you would be giving your child a loving home. 

The important thing to remember is that you are not “giving up.” Rather you are giving yourself and your baby a new chance. You are choosing a better life for your child and for yourself too. You are giving yourself the chance to move forward academically and professionally. You are giving yourself the chance to be more financially stable. But, most importantly, you are giving your child a chance to grow up in a loving home where they are wanted and can be properly cared for. The only thing you are giving up is struggling to take care of yourself and the child.  

With this in mind, Adoption Choices of Kansas are here to help you through your adoption journey. We are committed to providing birth mothers a full range of services to ensure the Kansas adoption process is as easy and painless as possible. In addition, we are committed to giving you and your baby all the care and protection you deserve. 

Deciding On Your Unplanned Pregnancy

If you don’t think you are ready or able to take care of the child, but you want to go through with the pregnancy, adoption is the perfect option for you. Giving up the baby for adoption might be the first step in healing from the trauma an unplanned pregnancy can cause. It will allow you and your child a second chance, a better chance at life. It can also help remedy the guilt in that you will be giving your baby a loving family that will be able to take care of them. 

While it is certainly a hard decision, Adoption Choices of Kansas is here to help you make the best decision for you and your baby. But how do you know if adoption is right for you? 

If you are not certain, ask yourself these questions: 

  1. Do you want to go through with the pregnancy?
  2. Are you comfortable with abortion? 
  3. Are you ready to take care of your unborn child? 

You should strongly consider Wichita adoption if you answered yes to the first question but no or maybe to the last question. 

Benefits of Choosing to Undergo the Adoption Process in Kansas

With a Wichita adoption, you can go get that degree or take that new job without worrying about how to balance that with taking care of a baby. Not only that, but your baby would be getting an amazing family who will be able to take care of them, a family who wants them, a family who will be able to provide for them.  

The best part is there are different types of adoption to suit the level of contact you wish to maintain with the child and his/her adoptive family. For example, you could have a closed adoption, in which the parties do not share full names and do not have a chance to communicate. If you seek closure and more privacy for yourself, this might be a good option for you. If you prefer to stay in contact with your child, you can opt for open or semi-open adoption. In a semi-open adoption, the two parties communicate via an intermediary, typically an adoption agency. With open adoption, the adoptive and birth families can communicate, exchanging letters and pictures directly, interacting through social media, and even scheduling visits between the two families. If you are nervous about giving up your child and want to stay in touch, this might be a good option for you, as you can see for yourself how your child is doing and feel reassured you made the right choice for them and for you.   

Moreover, you don’t have to commit to adoption or to an adoptive family before the birth. You can put your baby up for adoption days or even months after the birth. As birth parents, you get to choose your baby’s adoptive family. As such, you can make sure the family fits what you want for your child. You can pick a family of similar ethnic and/or cultural background as your own if you wish your child to grow up in a similar culture as you grew up in. You can pick a family with the same beliefs and/or values as you that will pass on similar values as the ones you grew up with. Or not. Whatever route you choose, you can be certain your baby is going to parents you approve of. 

Next Steps During the Adoption Process in Kansas

If you are worried about costs, choosing adoption in Kansas is always free for birth mothers. In fact, you can even get financial assistance! Moreover, safe housing is available or money for rent and utilities. And because we understand how emotionally taxing giving up a child can be, counseling is always free for birth parents throughout pregnancy and after the adoption is finalized.
