What if I don’t want any counseling after the adoption process?

By David Seamonson

When birth mothers consider a private Oklahoma adoption, there are many reasons they may have come to this conclusion. Adoption gives birth mothers a chance to clear up uncertainty in their life, yet it can make for a very difficult time. When you approach an adoption agency, you can use any resources they have, but it is not required. However, that is certainly available if you have a strong support system and finances and want to place your child up for adoption. We at Adoption Choices of Oklahoma are here to offer you as much adoption support as you want or need.

What at Adoption Choices of Oklahoma can Offer

When it comes to adoption, many birth mothers do not know what to do, or an unplanned pregnancy takes them off guard. This all boils down to how prepared they are to take care of a baby. What Adoption agencies offer so that birth mothers can feel confident in their adoption decisions is immense, and we want you to know about what we offer, whether you need to have the extra help or not.

Adoption Choices of Oklahoma offers 24/7 call service, so we are available anytime you would need help. Whether you are calling to start an adoption plan or if you are panicking about an unplanned pregnancy. You can talk with any of your counselors about the thoughts running rampant through your head.

We also can help guide you through the adoption process. Whether this is your first or subsequent adoption, we will be there. We will be able to provide you with insight into how the adoption process works and then offer those choices to you regarding your baby. This also means you can work with the adoption specialists to find the right home for your baby. Again, you would be in control of this process.

After Adoption Care

We also offer many different services after the adoption has been decided. You will still have access to the adoption specialists if you want to help place your baby during the adoption process. After the adoption has been completed, you will also have access to counselors if you need someone to talk to and listen to your thoughts on the adoption. Remember that adoption can be traumatic, which is why having someone to talk to is highly recommended.

What If I Don’t Need Adoption Support

It is perfectly alright not to want to take part in the adoption process. We can take the reins and find a great family for your baby in a closed adoption format, but we highly recommend participating in the adoption process. The fact that you would be able to choose where your baby goes, how you would have wanted them raised, and knowing you did all that you could for them on your end go a long way in relieving mother’s guilt in the future. That is why even if you do not feel you want the counseling or support that our adoption agency provides, it is still open for you to use.

There are many cases where mothers want to move on with their lives after adoption, and you might be one of them. Regardless of whether you take part in the adoption process, you are still placing a baby for adoption, which can leave a lasting impact on your future life. Unfortunately, many birth mothers out there do not have access to the strongest support network, so having resources provided by adoption agencies can help them through this tough time.

After Adoption is Finalized

When considering adoption, know that each mother approaches it differently. Some do not want to have any part in the process because they want to move past the adoption and do not want to worry about their past, and then others are doing it because they do not see another way out. Regardless of the reason, the resources of adoption agencies are open to anyone that needs them.
