Birth Mother Matters in Adoption Episode 60: Adoption Agencies Are A Safe Place 

Being homeless can be incredibly difficult and being homeless and pregnant is even more difficult.  Adoption is an option you and your baby. Financial instability is one of the number one reasons women choose adoption over parenting. Finding yourself pregnant and sleeping in a shelter, at a park, or under a bridge can be overwhelming.  You may be experiencing of feelings, such as:

• Disappointed that you are not in a different place in your life in order to provide for yourself and your baby
• Scared of what will happen to you and your baby.
• Concerned about how you will be able to eat healthy food 
• Sad that your life is not what you dreamed it would be
• Worried about how to attend prenatal doctor appointments
• Staying warm and clothed during your pregnancy
• Stressed out about what people think about you being pregnant and homeless
