OVERVIEW

“I could never carry a baby and then give her up for adoption…”

Have you ever felt this way about adoption?

Modern adoption has changed. You’re in control. You can choose the best plan for you and your baby. Learn more by contacting Options. Come in and meet with someone who can help guide you through the wide variety of choices that are open to you. Here’s what some moms have to say about their adoption choices:

“As a birthparent, I know that placing a child for adoption-a child that you cannot take care of properly-is the most unselfish thing that any birthmother can do for her child.

The love I had for my baby gave me the courage I needed to make a hard choice, but it is a choice I’ve never regretted. My daughter is alive because of me and she is growing up in a loving family. I put my baby’s needs first over my own needs and I know it was the hardest and the best thing I could have done for her.

It wasn’t because I didn’t love my baby that I chose adoption. It was because I did.”

FAQ

Am I really pregnant? Why is an early ultrasound necessary?

Even if you have a positive urine or blood pregnancy test, you may not have a viable pregnancy. An ultrasound exam is the only way to be sure. Get a free ultrasound at Options on your second visit.

* An ultrasound examination is available during the first trimester for women who are not yet under a doctor’s care. The purpose of the ultrasound is limited to diagnosis of viability and gestational age.

What should I know before considering abortion?

Get a FREE Ultrasound at Options
If an ultrasound reveals that the pregnancy will end naturally, abortion will not be necessary.

Get Tested for STDs at Options
You must know whether you are infected with an STD prior to having an abortion. There are often no symptoms. Abortion opens the cervix creating a high risk of Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) if you are infected. PID is a leading cause of infertility.
