Adoption Costs FAQs
As a pregnant woman or a mother with a recently born baby considering adoption, you likely have questions about the costs associated with placing a child for adoption.
Here are a few of the most common questions about adoption costs.
Do I Have to Pay to Place My Baby for Adoption?
No. With American Adoptions, you never have to pay for adoption. We work to ensure that financial concerns don’t get in the way of choosing to place your child for adoption.
We know you want your child to have the best life possible, which is why we help you create an adoption plan that gives you complete control over your journey and allows you to focus on your pregnancy without worrying about pregnancy and adoption-related expenses.

Do I Get Help with My Expenses?
Yes. When placing your child for adoption, your medical and legal expenses are 100% covered.
You deserve a safe and healthy pregnancy and never have to worry about medical bills related to your pregnancy.
Additionally, you are eligible for financial support for things like:
- Rent
- Utilities
- Groceries
- Transportation
- And more
The amount of financial support you receive depends on your state’s adoption laws.
Your adoption specialist will work to get you the maximum amount allowed so that you can focus on your pregnancy and your baby’s health without worrying about how you will pay for those important bills.
Is it OK to Get Financial Help?
Women considering adoption often wonder if it’s OK to accept financial help when placing a child for adoption. The short answer is yes — when you are working with a licensed adoption professional. American Adoptions seeks approval for all expenses through a court process to make 100% certain the expenses we help with are legally allowed in your state.
Courts approve certain expenses so there is a healthy pregnancy. Without help, some women may struggle to work in the later stages of their pregnancy, pay medical bills, and cover living expenses.
Adoption financial support lets you focus on your pregnancy without worrying about stressful expenses.
