Steps to Start the Adoption Process in Indiana

Discovering you’re pregnant when you weren’t expecting can feel overwhelming, even scary. But take a deep breath, you don’t have to go through this alone. If you’re considering putting your baby up for adoption and want to know more about the adoption process, know that there are caring people and resources ready to guide you through every step. 

It’s completely normal to feel a mix of emotions like uncertainty, loss, grief, or doubt—before, during, and even after adoption. These feelings are valid, and the right support can make all the difference. Remember: you have time to think through your options and make the right decision for you and your baby.

Positive adoption language Disclaimer: 

Please understand that these blogs are written in a way to use language that people use when searching for help with their adoption plans. Unfortunately, while all of us understand what positive adoption language means, most expectant moms who come to us at first do not understand what that means. The most common search term on the Internet for pregnant moms is “How do I give up my baby for adoption?” If we do not include those words in our blog posts and instead put “How do I create an adoption plan for my baby,” then our website will not show up in most expectant moms’ search results in Google.
