Well tonight Chad was talking to a friend on Facebook that he graduated with that adopted a little girl who is absolutely ADORABLE! Well we have been talking to her about adoption and she seems to know lots of people.
She doesnt really keep in contact with the BM just due to some things that happened. Well she found out through the grapevine today that the BM is pg again (this will be her 6th..yes 6th child and she is only 23..wow) and is giving this one up for adoption. She said all this mother wants is $. We asked how much and she (girl chad graduated with) said a few hundred, groceries, etc....are you kidding me..thats it?? She said the most expensive part to them was they wanted to make sure this girl was clean of drugs the last month so they put her up in a hotel and paid for all necessities.
She gave up another one for adoption last year (she has had the past few in Sept) and that family still talks to her (BM) and then the girl chad graduated with talks to that family (anyone confused?!) and thats how she found out. Supposedly she is due in late Sept/early October she thought.
The scary part?? She has not been to the doctor yet and is that far along. She (girl Chad graduated with) said everyone of her babies have tested + for some type of drug. Scary? Yes but I know that they can also be weened off it too.
This girl keeps getting pg so she doesnt have to go to jail and is in this for the $, gets pg, gives up a child gets some $. I just couldnt imagine. Just a sad, sad situation.
Supposedly we are going to get in contact with her and see if she has already picked a family or not. The BM lives really close to Chads family in AL. Please say a little prayer for us and that if its God's will that he will show us the way, and if not he will show us the right situation.

Your in my prayers. I hope this works out the way its meant to. It is sort of like our adoption story. A friend of a cousin of a friend's sister was pregnant with baby number 2 at 18 years old and that is how we got our daughter.
Its a wild ride and I hope yours starts soon. Its so worth every second of stress and every emotion that goes with it!
i hope if this is the baby for you, it all works out! actually, i know, if this is the baby for you, it WILL all work out!
It's so sad that this woman feels like there's no other way out than to go get pregnant and get money for her babies. And unfair that she can get pregnant so easily whereas so many stable, loving couples have such difficulty. At least the babies are getting a shot at a better life. Praying that God's will includes you all getting a baby--whether this one or another one. (BTW, if there's a candidate for forced sterilization, this woman would be it. Sheesh.)
How neat!! You never know how God will bring you your child. Praying for you guys as you learn more about the situation and decide how to proceed! :)
I hope this works out! Our daughters BM had no prenatal care:( That was super scary but in the end all worked out and she was fine.
