Do those of you who have adopted think this will affect couples wanting to adopt the baby. My doctor has assured me everything is alright according to the ultrasound. I don't want these couples to think I am trash. I made a mistake and I am sorry. I do love this baby and I want to place for adoption as to finish my college education. How should I go about telling the sw I lied about drug exposure? Please any advice would be great. I'm desperate to tell the truth.
