Wow, so if you havent read me up in "adoption" please do. Well, my sister called from florida really excited about planning a baby shower for me when she comes here in march. Sad maybe its a sign? Or maybe i'm jus sposed to make this decision soon. I dont know? Any fortune tellers around?

Just do what your heart wants. Follow your gut instinct...Its usually right. This may sound bad, but you can always give things a try. If it dosen't work out, then maybe give the baby up for adoption before he/she gets too old. And if you become too attatched..Then i'd say it's meant to be!

~sara~ good luck in your decision Confused

Awww, well she looks good and healthy now, and shes adorable might I add. I see all of you girls do this yet i'm so scared I can't be the mommy that alyvia(the name I picked) loves. So, to let ya know more about me...Lol...I could talk for days without stopping..But..Here goes

(another reason why im "overwhelmed")
well this woman called me that somehow found out I was pregnant, and shes 29 years old and her husband is in remission from prostate cancer. They are unable to adopt now, and called first "dibs" on alyvia. They have tried everything and not one agency will allow them to adopt. So i've been considering the option, when today...My sister called me telling me about the shower she planned, like I said... I do want to keep her, but i'm just scared I can't give her the life she's guna need. Maybe it's the jitters, or mayb its real..I don't know, but life is nuts...


(well, that felt good)
hehe

Why wouldn't you be able to provide what your daughter needs? She needs looootttssss of love, shelter, and food. You provide that for yourself. Ya know I have to say being a mother is not as hard as many people made it out to be. I mean yes its stressful and can be difficult, but so far I have just had a blast and I wouldnt trade it for anything in the world!!!!

Hey mol! Dont forget if you ever need to talk to me i'm on your msn list so feel free to say something anytime! But back to the post. Either way you go we'll all support you through it. If you absolutely think you cannot handle it, then adoption would be the good choice. But if you really want to keep the baby then do so! I know its a very hard decision, but which ever one it is i'm sure it will be for the best. Like what sara said...Follow your heart, it will never fail you! Bye girlie!
