Its not uncommon for mothers to choose adoption from the hospital. This type of adoption is usually referred to as a last-minute adoption or after-delivery adoption.
Giving your baby up for adoption at birth is an incredibly brave and selfless decision. Whatever your reasons may be, if youre not ready to be a parent, adoption is a responsible and loving option. When you choose adoption, youre providing a waiting family with a most precious and long-awaited gift. At the same time, youre giving your baby the gift of a life filled with love and opportunities.

Before a family is eligible to adopt, they must complete a home study through their state. The home study is a thorough and invasive process that lasts about three to four months on average. It includes a full FBI background check and an in-depth evaluation of their finances, marital stability, lifestyle, personalities, physical and mental health, medical history, background, education, reasons for adopting, and much more. All families who successfully complete this difficult process are prepared to be parents in every way and will provide a safe, stable, and loving home for your baby.
