Brave Decision: Our Journey of Choosing Adoption for Our Baby

Choosing adoption for a baby can be a tough decision. One family shares their experience of making this brave choice.

When Sally found out she was pregnant, she and her partner, Mike, faced a difficult decision. They were both young and didn’t feel ready to raise a child. Sally said, “We knew we wanted to give our baby the best start in life.”

Sally admitted feeling overwhelmed by the thought of becoming parents. “We were scared. We didn’t have stable jobs or a home of our own,” she said.

The couple carefully considered all their options, including keeping the baby or terminating the pregnancy. Ultimately, they felt adoption was the best choice for their child.

“We wanted to find a family who could provide everything we couldn’t,” Sally explained. After searching for the right fit, they found a couple eager to adopt and provide a loving home for their baby.

Handing over their baby to the adoptive parents was an emotional moment for Sally and Mike. “It was heart-wrenching but also a relief. We knew we were doing the right thing,” Sally said.

Despite the sadness of parting with their baby, Sally and Mike feel optimistic about the future. “We hope our baby grows up knowing they were loved and that we made the best choice for them,” Mike said.

Choosing adoption is a difficult decision, but for Sally and Mike, it was the right one. They hope their story will inspire others facing similar choices.
