Darby & Baby B

Darby, a proud Hispanic birth mother, faced an unplanned pregnancy and made the courageous decision to pursue adoption. Already parenting other children and facing financial challenges, she wanted to ensure her baby would have the stability and security of a two-parent home.

Darby’s Hispanic family stood by her side throughout the process. They supported her decision and even came to the hospital, where they met Baby B, the adoptive family, and the agency support worker. Their encouragement gave Darby strength and comfort as she moved through her adoption journey.

Because Darby discovered her pregnancy later, her adoption journey happened quickly. Within just ten weeks, she connected with Adoption Choices of Texas, found the perfect adoptive family, and delivered her child. From start to finish, she felt guided and supported.

Wanting her child to grow up close to her roots, Darby chose a Texas family. Knowing Baby B will be raised in her home state gave her peace of mind.

Darby was referred to Adoption Choices of Texas by a friend who had also experienced an unplanned pregnancy. She immediately knew the agency was the right fit. Her adoption specialist, Ella, supported her every step of the way, ensuring she felt cared for and understood. One of the most impactful parts of her experience was having a doula. This support set the agency apart and made Darby feel truly advocated for during her adoption plan.

Darby’s decision was not easy, but she knew it was the best choice for Baby B’s future. Through adoption, she found peace in providing her child with stability and opportunities.

Darby shared:

“My Doula Cookie was truly a blessing and was with me for 2 days advocating for me in my adoption plan.”
