I’M THINKING ABOUT GIVING MY BABY UP FOR ADOPTION, BUT WHAT IF THE BABY IS BORN WITH A BIRTH DEFECT?

We, at Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”), cannot speak for local adoption agencies or national adoption agencies, but over the 35+ years and the numerous successful adoptions we have arranged, we have NEVER walked away from a sick baby. We have had babies with cerebral palsy, hemophilia, Down Syndrome, and even one baby who was not expected to live more than a few months, among other medical issues. In every situation we have seen, we have found loving, forever homes for the baby.

We have lots of wonderful, carefully screened, loving families (married, single, Lesbian, and Gay) who cannot wait to welcome a baby into their hearts and homes and are happy to assist with living expenses to the full extent allowed by law.

If you would like free, no-obligation information about how to give a child up for adoption, or, more correctly, make an adoption plan for your precious baby, please contact us. We will answer your questions, without cost or obligation on your part. In other words, talking to us costs you nothing nor does it mean you ever have to talk or text with us, again. We can assist you with an Indiana adoption no matter whether you live in Hammond or Newburgh, Elkhart or Evansville, Hammond or Clarksville, New Castle or Vincennes, or any Indiana county or city in between.

You can call, text, and or email us anytime —call: 317-575-5555, text: 317-721-2030, email: AdoptionSupport@kirsh.com, or a Facebook message:  https://www.facebook.com/KirshandKirsh/. We answer our office phone 24 hours a day, every single day. We try to respond to emails and text messages within minutes of receipt.

POSITIVE ADOPTION LANGUAGE DISCLAIMER:  Please understand that these blog posts 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 that come to us at first do not understand what that means. The most common search term on the Internet for expectant 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 mom’s search results in Google.

IF I USED DRUGS DURING MY PREGNANCY, CAN ADOPTION ATTORNEYS KIRSH & KIRSH, P.C. (“KIRSH & KIRSH”) STILL HELP ME PLACE MY NEWBORN FOR ADOPTION?

Yes, we can help you. Kirsh & Kirsh has lots of loving, carefully screened, prospective adoptive parents who have expressed interest in adopting babies exposed to drugs or born addicted to drugs. We have never known of an expectant mother who intentionally tried to hurt their unborn child by taking drugs, in our 35+ years of experience with numerous birth mothers. Drug addiction, something not easily overcome, does not prevent a baby momma from proceeding with an adoption unless the Indiana Department of Children Services (“DCS”) gets involved before arrangements for an adoption have been made. Therefore, if you think that you might give up your baby for adoption, put up your baby for adoption, or more correctly, make an adoption plan for your newborn baby, contact us, at Kirsh & Kirsh, as soon as possible in your pregnancy. The sooner we are involved, the less likely DCS will put the baby in foster care. Of course, babies have a way of coming when they are ready, and plans cannot always be made ahead of time. If you are late in your pregnancy or have already delivered, do not hesitate to contact us, or have the hospital social worker call us, as soon as possible. We have gotten many of the local DCS offices not to place babies in foster care if a birth mom asks us to find an adoptive home for her baby rather than let the baby go into the DCS department system.

We have lots of wonderful, carefully screened, loving families (married, single, Lesbian, and Gay) who cannot wait to welcome a baby into their hearts and homes and are happy to assist with living expenses to the full extent allowed by law.

How Will I Feel Years From Now, If I Give Up My Baby For Adoption?

If you make any life decision based upon solid reasons, those reasons will bring comfort when you question your decision. However, even the most rational, well-thought-out, righteous decision can also cause sadness. Undoubtedly, every woman who has ever placed a baby for adoption has second-guessed themselves and experienced feelings of grief and sadness. Certainly, if you do not give up, or more correctly, make an adoption plan for, your baby, you will not suffer the grief and sadness that goes along parting with your child.  However, if handled correctly, the grief associated with placing a baby for adoption subsides. Like losing a close friend or relative to death, one does not forget the lost friend or relative, but the acute pain lessens over time. Many adoption counselors would say the same about the feelings of loss associated with adoption.

However, a woman who does not proceed with an adoption plan, does not assure herself of a lifetime of happiness as a parent. Parenting is hard in the best of circumstances. Parenting without long term support and resources (not just money) can cause a lifetime of grief and sadness. Watching a child grow up knowing that you are not providing your child with opportunities that will allow him or her to reach their potential in life can create feelings of guilty and intense sadness that do not diminish with time.

If you question your emotional, financial (and etc.) readiness to parent your soon-to-be-born baby, you should look into adoption with a reputable adoption agency or an experienced adoption attorney. Under Indiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, Kentucky law and the laws of most states, even if you wanted to commit to an adoption before that baby is born, you cannot.

We at Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”) work with expectant and birth mothers considering adoption throughout Kentucky, Mississippi, Tennessee and Indiana and have talked to many women like you. We have lots of loving, carefully screened and investigated, prospective, adoptive parents who cannot wait to welcome a baby into their hearts and homes. You will find that we are nice, knowledgeable, and completely non-judgmental. We never pressure you to choose adoption. We will treat you with kindness and respect. Frankly, many of the women with whom we talk and even meet decide not to proceed with an adoption plan. That’s fine. We will arrange for you to speak with a counselor and your own attorney, if you wish, at NO COST to you. At least then, you can make a better-informed decision – at decision you can live with.

You may contact us at Kirsh & Kirsh without cost or obligation on your part. Birth mothers NEVER pay a fee to Kirsh & Kirsh. See what we have to offer before making the most important decision of your life. You can call, text and or email us anytime. We answer our office phone, 317-575-5555, 24/7/365. We also promptly respond to text messages at 317-721-2030 and email at AdoptionSupport@kirsh.com. We try to respond to emails and text messages within minutes of receipt.
