I have spoken to an adoption attorney and she says the hardest part of trying to adopt is locating a young lady who wants to put her child up for adoption. I am 38 years old and my husband Buy Acomplia Online and I have tried and tried for years, been through fertility treatments and nothing has worked. I just don’t think I will ever get pregnant. We are so ready to be parents, but I really don’t know how/where to start looking. Any advice would be appreciated.

you’re not going to get advice for this question on this forum lol you’re only going to be crucified. Get the body armor out!!!
i agree with Marie below as well. would’ve been better to educate about the process instead of just reporting and turning her off. I guess now she’ll only get the view of the adoption agency….
Not here. This is NOT the place for baby hunting. It is illegal, and against yahoo’s terms of service. Its actually quite disgusting to troll for babies, but I see you’re posting in the pregnacy section, too. Guess your “adoption attorney” told you to do that, too? Seems like for all the money you’re going to spend buying a newborn, the attorney would do that for ya. You’ve been reported.
Cant Stop, I dont think you should have reported her. She states very clearly in her question that she’s looking for advice, not trolling for birthmothers on this website.
I think it would be really hard to locate a birthmother on your own. You need to get a homestudy done in order to adopt, the social worker who does it can make suggestions to you about what type of adoption would be best for your family. Know that adoption doesnt cure infertility & adoption is not second best or a replacement for the birth child you cant have. It sounds like you’ve thought about that though.
Why do you need a pregnant girl? Aren’t there enough living children that need adopting?
I’m really sorry that you can’t have children. It is not the responsibility of fertile women to provide you with children, and it is not the responsibility of fertile women’s children to be your dream come true. Adoption is supposed to be a service for children who need homes, not a service for adults who want other people’s children. As Linny mentioned, it is illegal to troll for other women’s babies. I’m sorry that your lawyer has no ethics, but that’s no excuse for you to follow in her footsteps.
Adopt through foster care. In the meantime, have some morals and stop trying to baby snatch a vulnerable pregnant woman. No one owes you her baby. I sincerely hope that you don’t get your hands on someones baby.
some of u are missing the point she is not on here preying on pregnant women trying to snatch their baby. she is on here asking everyone if they know of any organizations that have pregnant women wanting to give up there baby. I feel like if u have nothing worthy of saying then u need not leave a comment. with that being said try Bethany Christian Services or go to adoptionhelp.com either one may be able to help u. Good Luck
Why would you want to exploit a pregnant girl? Pregnant girls are not baby-breeders for the rich. Pregnant girls have moms and dads, brothers and sisters, grandparents, aunts and uncles, just like everyone else. They are young women with deep feelings of love for their babies and who need a little support to be good mothers.
The reason that you can’t find your little baby breeder is that 99.9% of the “girls” who get pregnant have families who do not want their new family member to go on the adoption market to be purchased by strangers.
My advice is to look at foster care for children who already need homes and not create a broken home and more broken hearts.
i understand what you are asking. I too want to adopt an infant, the Foster care system has children that are older and have been thru so much. You have to know you are prepared for that. There are young girls that leave their babies at hospitals every day. Some just leave them on the street. I know that if there was a way to talk to these girls and let them know that you would gladly adopt their baby, they would have a better choice. Therre are preg centers in most towns that help these girls, but not all of them. It is difficult when you want a child so bad. The adoption process isn’t an eay one. It takes time. Good Luck
Go through the Foster Care System, there are so many children that are in the system..
You can bond and love an toddler or older child.
Contact an adoption agency and they might be able to point you at the right direction.
You can sign up for parent profiles (adoption profiles) online. There are a lot of sites. Just do a google search or ask your attorney which one he prefers. A friend of ours sent out a flyer to all her friends and family. She still keeps in contact with her daughter’s first mommy (biological mommy). We still keep in touch with ours. Our daughter’s biological mommy walked into our social worker’s office and asked to see profiles. There are also agencies that put adds in the phone book and online that people who are pregnant and unable to raise their little one contact them through. Just tell everyone you know that you would like to be a parent because you never know who knows who. First thing is you need to search in yourself and see if being pregnant (mommy to a biological child) is more important or being a mommy (with no biological connection). Being pregnant was never important to us, and when we found out it wasn’t going to happen without fertility treatments, which is still not a guarantee that you can get pregnant, we never did treatments. Yet, some of our friends did and have had babies. Each family is different. We did not have to have a child look like us to love so we didnt care about the “me carry a baby part”. You will go through counseling with a social worker before you adopt. They must know why you want to adopt and how you feel about adoption so please be sure you know what is important to you before you start googling for adoption profile sites. Good luck.
