Hope Services acknowledges that a person is not a birth parent until the expected child is born. The term ‘birth mother’ or ‘birth parent’ is used on this website, however, an appropriate substitute may be ‘pregnant and considering options’.  Birth parent also might mean or include birth father.

I needed to talk with someone who could understand my confusion. Hope Services gave me support and information on adoption and parenting. That helped me to weigh the pros and cons and come to the decision I thought was best for my baby and me. In choosing adoption, I feel I gave my daughter the best gift I could . . . a family.
