Birth Mothers’ Advice on Texas Adoption

By Jessica Exstrom

Looking for local adoption agencies can be a struggle. Finding an organization specializing in the care you want and need can also be difficult. As an up-and-coming mother, there are many things to figure out. At Adoption Choices of Texas, we pride ourselves on the ability to offer quality care, including various resources, to make your adoption process happen in the best way possible and how you want it. Read on to learn what adoption is like with us from real experience and emotions. We know you’ll find exactly what you’re looking for!

What Texas Adoption Looks Like

There are barriers that just can’t be avoided and emotions that will be felt when pursuing adoption, but we can make it feel simpler than this. With locations for adoption in Dallas and adoption in San Antonio, and Houston, it’s just a quick trip away from helping you with your adoption process. Along with convenient locations, Adoption Choices of Texas has professional adoption specialists, fully licensed by the State of Texas, and able to help you with various aspects of adoption. Detailed later in this blog, we offer adoption counseling, legal support, medical needs, and necessities like housing/rent, utilities, transportation, and food.

Adoption does not have to be as intimidating as it is made out to be. With the right people, support, and adoption agencies, it can be a smooth process where you feel comfortable and cared for. Texas adoption can be a great experience!

What are Some Adoption Resources We Offer Birth Mothers?

As previously mentioned, we offer a variety of services. Our Texas adoption centers are equipped with professionals and resources to help you and your baby during this chaotic time in your life. The fear of bills being paid on time and the high levels of emotions felt during the adoption process shouldn’t have to take up all your time. What you should be focused on is your and your baby’s health and setting up an adoption plan. Because you deserve the help, we offer:

• Counseling
  • Offered before and after adoption by professionals there to listen to and help you
• Financial Assistance
  • For approved living expenses throughout your pregnancy (utilities, phone, food, etc.)
• Medical Care
  • Care offered for maintaining a healthy pregnancy
• Housing
  • A place to stay when dealing with unsafe and/or unstable living conditions

There is plenty to focus on aside from the stress of just living. With our local adoption agency, we can offer these services to you. One-on-one care with staff that truly cares about your mental and physical well-being is what you can expect with your baby’s adoption.

It’s Normal to Feel Emotional During Your Adoption Journey

While mentioning mental health, know that we stress the importance of it during and after your pregnancy experience. The adoption process is complicated, so let’s get one thing straight–you are not giving anything up when you give your baby up for adoption. With us, you can be a part of the entire process. From choosing the adoptive family, your baby will be placed into deciding who will be present at the hospital and birth. After that, it is in your control. Our adoption specialists are here to make your plan a reality and help you gain confidence in these decisions.

It’s difficult not to feel guilt or sadness during this time, and we want you to know that it’s completely fine to feel that way. Your emotions are completely valid and expected, but it’s also important to remember the sacrifice you’re making and the effort you’re putting into your baby’s future. There will always be emotional obstacles and struggles, and we understand. It’s okay, but you also need to know that you are going to be okay!
