You have choices!
It is so important to find the right adoption professionals to help you through the process of giving up your baby for adoption in Quincy.
Choice is what we are all about
Facing an unexpected pregnancy can be extremely overwhelming. Most women who struggle to make decisions about their unplanned pregnancies do not have the accurate information on how adoption works if they choose that option, and what their rights are after making that decision.
The negative stories you may have heard about placing a child up for adoption is a far cry from the adoption world of today. Much has changed over the years as far as the options and the rights of the birth mother.
If you are considering adoption in Quincy, know that as a birth mother, you have complete control during your pregnancy, delivery, and even post-birth.
meet Waiting adoptive families
We ask our families to put together a family profile book with photos and information about their family. We make those available for expectant parents to look through. Perhaps you want to "meet" them on Skype or FaceTime—you can also call or text them. Sometimes an expectant parent can choose to invite the adoptive parents to a doctor's appointment or even a sonogram. It's your choice and it's up to you.

Birth Mother Rights During and After Pregnancy in Quincy
As the birth mother, you do have rights. You may not have known that, or you may have even been told something different.
Your rights during your pregnancy are:
Choosing adoption or not.
Choice of an adoption agency.
Access to prenatal care.
Choosing the adoptive family that is right for you.
Deciding if you want an open or a closed adoption.
Right to an attorney that represents you and is paid for by the adoptive parents.
Your rights during delivery:
Respect for delivery choices and preferences.
Choice of how you will deliver.
Choice on seeing and holding the baby after birth.
Right to informed consent.
Choice of having adoptive parents present during delivery.
Freedom from harm (no one can abuse you).
What are Your Rights Post-Birth?
All states are different when it comes to signing relinquishment papers and how long it takes to finalize an adoption in court. As the birth mother in Quincy, you will be informed every step of the way of your rights.
There are different types of adoption to consider
You might not know what feels right for you right now, so we’re happy to help you understand what these different relationships are.
Open Adoption
Open Adoption at a minimum means you openly exchange contact information with adoptive parents. Often open adoption means you might email, text or call adoptive parents and stay in touch as your baby grows up. Some people enjoy visits, while others worry that’s too much openness. Don’t worry, we’ll help you think about what feels right for you—it’s your choice.
Semi-Open Adoption
Most adoptions these days fall into this general category. Your baby’s family will share photos and updates with you, and while you might not see each other face-to face, you will always know your baby is being loved and is happy! Semi-open adoptions sometimes become open adoptions over time, while others become less open as people become busy with their lives. We’ll always support you in your choice.
Closed Adoption
Birthparents sometimes are in a difficult circumstance and it feels easier to have a closed adoption so you can put this difficult time behind you. We’ll help you understand what this choice means for you, and find adoptive parents who support you in your choice.
Birth Mothers should never be afraid to ask for help!
Options so you can make the best choice possible!
