When we went through Angel Adoption with Carolyn and Sharon, we felt completely comfortable talking with them and working with them! They are really easy to talk to!

This will be the best holiday ever. Thanks to you both. You have truly blessed us! Wishing you and your families a safe and healthy holiday!

We can't thank you enough for our miracle baby. May God bless you and shine His face upon you.

"Thank you" doesn't even begin to cover what we have to say, but Thank You! As I told our birthmom, we are now "complete" having Kaleah.

The Birthfather

What if the birthfather doesn’t agree with my adoption plan?
We have worked with many pregnant women where the birth father does not agree with the adoption plan. If you are unmarried his rights to the baby vary from state to state. Typically he needs to be informed of the adoption plan but will have to demonstrate his commitment to parenting the child such as contesting the adoption. Most often the birth father does not take the steps necessary to protect his rights and the adoption can move forward.

What if the birthfather will not sign paperwork?
There are many instances when a birthfather will say he will not sign paperwork. Each state has a process of terminating parental rights. The attorney in your state will handle the terminating of his rights and any correspondence there may be so you do not have to.

Most fathers refuse to sign paperwork as a way to “control” the birthmother. It is their way to punish or hurt you. Please remember they do not understand adoption correctly or they have heard bad things about it. They may be getting pressure from friends and family on what they should do.

Many men think that signing adoption papers is an “unmanly” thing to do. They feel it would make them look weak. Or, many are afraid that sign paperwork will somehow make them responsible to pay child support even if there is a successful adoption.

The truth is that in most situations the father is not involved because he simply does not want to be. This pregnancy is not happening to him and he can simply walk away. Angel Adoption’s staff will walk you through the process. We are easy to talk with and will have the right professional work with you.

Does the birth father of the baby have to be involved?

We would prefer that he is so the baby can have information about him, however, if he is not known or won’t cooperate you can move forward without him. His rights can be terminated through the court or he can voluntarily relinquish his rights and not get involved. In many states there is a paternity registry where the birthfather must register his paternity or else he loses his rights to the baby once your relinquishment is signed.

What if the birth father of the baby is NOT involved?
Angel Adoption has worked with hundreds of women who did not have contact with the birthfather. You could have lost touch with the birthfather or simply do not know who the father of the baby was. Angel Adoption is used to working with women that find themselves in many different situations. We are here to help you and never judge you. Please remember it is ok. We are happy that you are even considering the miracle of adoption for your baby.

What if I do not know who the father of the baby is or there is more than one possible father?
You are not alone and we will not judge you. Many birth mothers do not know exactly who the father of their baby is or how to locate him and that is okay. We will explain the process of how an unknown birth father will be handled in your specific state. The most important thing is for you to be as honest and open about the potential birth father (s) as possible.

Is it uncommon that the birth father is my boyfriend, fiancee, or husband and we want to place our baby for adoption?

Absolutely not. Many birth parents are still dating or even married and they are choosing adoption together. Every person's situation is unique and in many cases adoption is the best choice for the baby, even if the birth parents are still in a relationship. This can be due to age, financial instability, and other children that they are already caring for, or various other reasons. Having your boyfriend or spouse involved in your adoption can provide extra support and guidance for you during this time. We support couples who choose adoption together.

I want to give my baby up for adoption. I know who the father is but I don't know where he is.

If you want to plan adoption, don't let that stop you. You'll need to provide us with all the information you have about the father and our legal team will guide you.

I am considering placing my baby for adoption but I am not sure who the father is. I think I know, but he wants to have a paternity test. Who would pay for a test or would I?
If the birth father wants DNA testing to determine paternity he will be financially responsible for any fees involved.
