Resources for an Unplanned Pregnancy

You may feel alone, but you have no reason to face an unplanned pregnancy by yourself. Lifetime offers a lot of unplanned pregnancy help.

What is Open Adoption?

Many women choosing adoption today prefer an “open adoption”. Open adoption allows you to:

  • Choose your child’s adoptive parents
  • Decide how you want things to go at the hospital
  • Receive counseling and support
  • Remain in contact with your child and the adoptive family in the future

Birth Father Rights

Open and honest communication with your baby’s father is usually best. Here, we provide tips and information about birth fathers and their rights.

Faith & Inspiration

Choosing adoption for your child isn’t easy, so it helps to have as much support and encouragement as possible. Reading these inspiring adoption stories and poems is an excellent way to lift your mood and give you hope.

Post-Adoption

Recovering physically from giving birth will take a few weeks. Emotional recovery is less predictable. Therefore, many women seek post adoption support.

Adoption Forms

We are here to help you decide if adoption is the right choice for you. Along the way, we may need some additional information. The forms listed below are some of the forms we may ask you to complete, depending on your situation.
