I know this reply might be a little late, but I wanted to throw my two cents in.

I am not so sure that is a good idea. I mean, I am 100% for adoption no matter what, but I noticed that you have only been with your boyfriend for 4 months and you don't even live together. I know from friend's and my own experience that just moving in together is a huge step and some times disastrous. You can't truly know someone until you have lived with them for a good while. Not to say that you two would have problems, but you just never know. It would only make the situation worse for everyone if you brought this little girl into a home that neither of you have ever even shared together. What happens if you live together and find out that you just aren't meant to be?

Also, the fact that you two are working different hours might only put more stress on the girl as well as both of you. Raising a child that could very well have emotional problems is going to be a HUGE responsibillity.

I hate to come across as uncaring about this child's situation because I am not like that at all, but I just think it could be a bad idea for all of you. I think you need to at least move in with him first, live together for a bit, and then think about adopting a child.

Either way, best of luck to you and I truly hope the little girl finds a home!
