Is Your Baby Already Born? After Delivery Adoption is Still an Option

Adopt Out My Baby in Arizona

When facing an unplanned pregnancy, there are, typically, two types of pregnant women. The first group takes a moment to let the surprise pass, and then immediately after formulates a course of action. The second group of women may not feel any rush and choose to wait before making a final decision. Yet, there is also a third group of pregnant women that isn’t spoken of very often. This is the group who wants to try parenting their child, but after trying it out for a short period of time, determines that parenthood is not for them.

Do you recognize yourself in these three groups? Perhaps you fall into the second category. Maybe you’re in the third. You are not alone. As the best adoption agencies in AZ, Adoption Choices of Arizona is here to help you in any way we can. This resource speaks specifically to the pregnant woman who find themselves wanting to choose adoption when their baby is already born in an adoption process known as after delivery adoption. 

If you need adoption help now, please call or text us at 1-480-900-5520 or visit us at Adoption Choices of Arizona.

How After Delivery Adoption Works

During your pregnancy, have you wondered if it’s too late to choose adoption? If there’s an invisible cap, where putting your child up for adoption becomes impossible? We have good news! It’s never too late! This is where after adoption delivery becomes an available option for you, if you’re unable to raise your child.

Choosing after delivery adoption is very similar to choosing adoption earlier in your pregnancy. You’ll still have control over the adoption process, and be able to pick your child’s adoptive family and what type of adoption you want.The biggest difference in the two adoption processes is that after adoption delivery may be a bit more expedited, as your child is, most likely, already born. 

After Delivery Adoption in the Hospital

Perhaps you’re in labor. Perhaps you’re resting in your hospital bed and your baby is being cleaned and tended to by the nurses. Perhaps you are holding your baby for the first time. You’ve been waiting and preparing for this moment for months. But then, suddenly, you panic. You have a change of heart. As much as you want to raise your child, you know that you are not in a place where that’s possible.

If you are in the midst of giving birth, or have already given birth in the hospital, putting your child up for adoption after delivery is an option. Life is full of curveballs and last minute changes happen all of the time. If you’ve recently experienced a job loss, a new financial challenge or changed your mind about becoming a parent, it’s okay. All you need to do is let your doctor or nurse know that you would like to place your baby for adoption, they will contact our adoption agency in Arizona, and an adoption caseworker will immediately come to the hospital to help you create an adoption plan.

After Deliver Adoption When Your Baby is an Infant

In the back of your mind, you thought you knew what raising a child would be like. You’ve spent time with family member’s and friend’s children, after all, so how could it be all that different? It’s been a few weeks since you left the hospital with your new son or daughter, and it’s felt like a living nightmare. From sleep deprivation to never getting a break from your child’s cries, you find yourself having more anxiety attacks and getting stressed out. Being a parent isn’t what you envisioned it to be, and you know it’s not for you.

Raising a child is a huge commitment. Absolutely. There is no doubt after that. It takes a lot of patience, courage and — in the first stages of his or her life — sleepless nights. If you have tried out parenting and determined that you aren’t cut out for it, that’s okay. All you need to do is give our adoption agency a call, and we will help you place your baby with a loving, caring and supportive adoptive family.
