Canada Adoption Service For A Pregnant Woman Exploring Her Adoption Choices

As a pregnant woman who's considering adoption in Canada, you hold the key to no less than three futures: your own, your baby's and, perhaps, a waiting adoptive couple's. That's a huge weight on anyone's shoulders, never mind all the other things that are going on in your life.

Adoption is probably the hardest decision you'll ever make. But, if carefully thought out, it could be the most rewarding as well. If you’re ready to look for an adoptive family, feel free to visit our Waiting Parent Registry. But if you’re not sure if adoption is for you, find out whatever you can – and as soon as you can. After all, while adoption lasts forever, your pregnancy won't. Here are some resources and information where you can find help and support.
