I think adoption is great but be prepared for ALOT of really rude commets people are nice to parents who adopt but not so much to the girls who want to give their baby up for adoption. /but there is a lot of people who can't have kids and have a lot to offer so stay strong on your decision

I am a very young 41 year old woman. I have desired a child since I was 22 years old. Due to certain things in my life, I have never had the opportunity to experience giving birth. My heart would be so fullfilled if I were given the chance to be a mom. I am a wonderful Aunt & 2nd mom to so many. I would love to the first mom. My life & heart would swoom! Call me. Please

Hi Jenna, after all my husband and I have been thru, trying to have a family, a co-worker told me about a friend of hers that was in the same situation as you are and had just found a family for her baby. She also gave me the idea to look into independent adoption... I was feeling sad all day today, searching for answers... and decided to try and look and see what I could find... and your name came across... and here I am. Hope has never left my heart and I believe that you will find in yours what is best for your family... If you want to contact us, our email is: izabelagibson@earthlink.net


Anne - August 10th, 2005 5:01 PM

Jenna..... please be sure that adoption is the path you want to go. You will never get your baby back once you give it up. Also, these adoption agencies will not tell you about the feelings and emotions you will go through. Your baby needs YOU. Not a stranger. You're the voice she hears. Your heart is the heartbeat she feels. Please make sure before you give your child up.


Stacey - August 10th, 2005 10:37 PM

Jenna, How long is this going to go on?? So many good people have answered you and people are still posting as of August 2005! What is your answer? You are tugging at these good peoples heart!
