Help With An Unplanned Pregnancy

The term “birthmother” is typically associated with a woman whose child has

been placed for adoption, although it is also used to refer to a woman in an

unplanned or crisis pregnancy situation, and may be considering the option of

adoption for her unborn baby.

Teen birthmothers often feel trapped and scared when faced with the difficult

decisions involved with an unexpected pregnancy. Most teen birthmothers are

most likely afraid to reveal the positive pregnancy to their parents. They

also face difficult choices whether to parent or place for adoption. Some

choose abortion thinking they will be “done” with the situation after the

abortion is chosen. The effects of abortion, both physical and emotional, are

long lasting. Of those who have had abortions, 94% regret their decision for

a variety of reasons. It does not work to pretend a baby never existed; an

abortion will not accomplish that. Birthmothers still have to accept that you

were pregnant, they will still have to deal with separation from the child

that was conceived and will still experience loss. Abortion may seem like a

quick and logical solution, but the outcome for birthmothers and possibly

birthfathers will not be that easy. And as for the baby, he or she will have

to go through the pain of losing his or her life just so a birth mother can

try to avoid some pain in her own.

Certainly the birth father’s feelings should be considered in this process.

His fears and concerns should be addressed. But more than ten thousand

studies show that a loving, two-parent home is best for a baby. If he is not

prepared to provide this, he should know that adoption is an excellent choice.

 There is no shame in a father placing his son or daughter in a loving home

that is not his own if he is not in the best position to offer the necessary

financial, emotional and spiritual stability for his child. The father’s

legal rights will vary from state to state. and can be check out through any

adoption agency. But, he can always step up to the plate by supporting the

birth mother in whatever decision she makes, whether it be parenting or

adoption.
