Its so hard knowing i cant be enoigh for her and he father isnt going to understand why i want to gice her to a xouple that can take care of her. Noone is going to support me in wanting to give her up but no one is going to be able to help me with her my sisyer is having twins and they are foinf to be helpong her. I jusy want what is best for my little sophia but i dont know how to tell my husband. I want her to have stability and never have to worry about things

I think sometimes giving a child up for adoption is the most loving thing you can do for that baby. When we are not in the position to offer a stable environment, comfortable life for a child, it can be the best thing to allow another couple to take on the responsibility.  It shows what a great mama you are to even consider it!  so many romanticize what it will be like to be a parent and it is the child who suffers.  

I wouldn't worry what others think.  This is you doing what you feel is best in your heart for your child.  I wish you luck with this decision and am here to help if you need it.

It's what you feel is best but you can't make this decision alone because it's not just up to you if her father wants to try and do things then you can't over rule him and give baby up just hold on things will get better that baby will make you do better things for her goodluck Hun I know it's hard
