Making an adoption plan for your child is not what it used to be! Those who know you're pregnant will probably have a lot of advise for you. Some may say that you have a right to control your own body and that abortion is the best answer.
This may seem like an easy solution, but it doesn't mean that it is. Most pregnancies aren't even detected until the sixth week. By then, your baby's heart has been beating for three weeks, brain waves can be read, the nervous system is complete and your baby is about to begin moving, although you will not feel it for three months more. Making an adoption plan may be a great thing you can do for both you and your baby.
