I think its better that the baby will be in ur family cuz if u put it for adoption, what if u never got to see it? Ur mom seems to be looking out for the best for u. Im not sure if this is the right decision for u since I dont know ur family situation but it does sound like a good idea.

I agree with babyrae I would most definitly let the baby be with my mother. I mean how many moms out there are actually willing to do that? Most of them will tell ya to get rid of it ya know? It sounds like u have a wonderful mother and I think u would be better of taking advantage of her great offer that way u can always be apart of ur childs life and like she said when ur ready, its all yours. Good luck! ~erica.

I would def let your mom adopt your baby so that you can watch him/her grow up and eventually down the road get your parental rights back when you're ready! You're mom sounds like an amazing woman to want to do that! Best of luck hun, let us know how things go!

I think its a good idea unless u think it would be too hard watching someone else raise it everyday.. But your the mom.. If u think its better off with someone else then adoption is great.. Theres soo many people that cant have kids.

Thanx everyone, you guys have helped me alot.. Im still not sure what I am goin to do, but I have pently of time. Thanx! If yall have any more info for me, I need it

Can I ask, why would you want the first one and not the second?
Love,
chanda

I didnt want the second one, I was forced into sex, and I got pregnant... Trust me when I found out I was pregnant at 15, I didnt want to have sex ever again... Then the father came to see her on thanksgivin and he stayed a week and he forced me into sex the last nite he was here..... I cant take care of two kids by my self... I dont know if anyone else is a single mother, but its hard to do with just one kid, takin care of two, I dont think I could do it right now... Thats why my mom said she would take it....

Well you do what you need to do, but I am a single mother to 3 kids and I just turned 23 today! My oldest with be 7 years old on jan. 29th and my baby will be 1 year old on march 1st. You do what you have to, to support your kids but at 15 I know its hard. I had my first son 4 days after I turned 16. But your 17 now and can hold a job. You can raise 2 kids if you work hard enough!

Thanx, but right now I cant get a job, im not in school and have no way to get a job because of transportation... And I dont have anyone to watch my daughter. But im tryin my best, and isnt that all that matters? Im not sure but I think it is... Well thanx you guys, you are really helpin me

Of course trying your best matters, but I am not trying to be rude and don't take it the wrong way but when you have a child, doing your best means you sacrifice alot of your own time, energy, money and basically sanity! Lol you are pregnant now and you are responsible for this child. I don't mean to be pushy, but did he rape you or did you finally just cave in after hours of nagging? Thirdly you should be on the pill to prevent pregnancies if you can't have finacially raise a baby, and why aren't you in school?

I know your not tryin to be rude, and your not. I understand all your doin is givin me info like I asked. I was on birth control, I guess it just didnt work, I dont know, I was on the patch, first time of ever being on it. Also the reason why im not in school is because I dont have anyone to watch my baby while I go. I cant afford daycare right now. So im just goin to go get my ged in feb when I turn 17. Oh and I was raped. Im takin him to court for that and for child support..... Thanx again

There are government funds that can pay for daycare while you work. But I think it depends on age and such. Go to your local family independance agency office and they will give you as much help as you need trust me. I know it's not something alot of girls want to do but when it comes to your child. You do what is needed and when you are able to get on your feet, you can get off. Do you have medical insurance for your 1st child? My sis had her kids in daycare paid for by the govt and worked full time and went to college for an associates degree. And after about 5 years, the dad left so thank god she went to college becuase now she is able to provide for her family. Also, if your mother is willing to take full responsibility for the upcoming child then maybe you should consider asking her to watch your baby now so that you can get and education and possibly a job.

I think you should let your mom take the baby as well! When I had my twins my I wanted to give them up because it was too hard for me to have 3 kids alone but my grandma took them and I still got to see them babies and now that I have someone and able to take care of them better I have them all the time. However it was hard for my grandma to give them back!

So I hope that helps you! Good luck!
