Having a baby is a life changing moment that is joyous, amazing, and breathtaking. It can also be one of the most terrifying, overwhelming, and tough moments as women have so much to consider for themselves and their unborn child. Oxygen is premiering a new six-part docu-series called “I’m Having Their Baby,” which focuses on the story that goes untold. It is not a typical baby reality show, but rather it features young, pregnant women as they struggle through their decision of whether or not to place their babies up for adoption. It is a side of the story showing how tough the decision is for women and what makes them choose their ultimate decision. These would-be moms all want more for their unborn child as well as for themselves, but they face tough times as they work through the adoption process.
“I’m Having Their Baby” is show like non-other as it shows the story that hasn’t been told before. Everyone knows of adoptions but it is a sort of taboo subject over why the mother apparently didn’t want their baby. This show hopefully puts some of those bad thoughts to rest while enlightening the viewers over what really happens in some cases.
Here is a clip:
What do you think? Will you be watching?
CHECK OUT: Don’t miss “I’m Having Their Baby” premiering on Oxygen on Monday, July 23rd at 11/10c.

Maybe you accepted a bad debt relief plan because of a poor,
bad or no credit history. Likewise, students can deduct the
interest on a new car. In truth, many people simply don’t do it.

Leave a blog post comment below on whether you plan on watching “I’m Having Their Baby” or what you think about it.
Adoption isn’t really a topic that I’m interested in, but if it’s in a respectful documentary format, rather than a hyped up reality type of show, I might watch.
Sophie S says
Probably won’t watch it on account of all the crying that would occur. These are hard and joyous stories, and those are always the hardest to watch.
Lauren says
I think I’ll watch!
Barbara Long says
I do not plan on watching this show as I am tired of all of these reality type shows.

Paula @ Frosted Fingers says
I don’t believe I get that station, so I can’t watch it. Even if I did, I don’t think I could handle it. I was crying just watching the clip. With my sister being given up for adoption and never having met her, it’s just too close to home.
And what an Ass “Rob” is above with his comment.
Jane says
It sounds like a very interesting show, something I’ve never watched before. I’ll try to check it out tonight if I’m still awake.

Lisa @ Oh Boy Oh Boy Oh Boy says
I do plan to watch. I have been watching 16 & Pregnant and Teen Mom for years and the couple that gave their baby up for adoption have always been inspiring to me. It is a VERY selfless act. And I think more people might consider it as an option if more people talked about it
Kat says
I hope this show will promote all the wonderful things about adoption and more moms will consider this option.
Kelly D says
I plan on watching this movie because it looks interesting.

brich22 at earthlink dot net

I would like to watch this but we don’t get Oxygen channel. I like this very much because I don’t think we present this possibility to young un-married women. No matter what decision is made by the mother it will not be an easy one.

Christy says
I don’t watch reality TV because most of it is trash but I like to watch documentary-type shows. If this was set up as more of a documentary with no bias, I’d watch it.

Kat Riley says
I don’t plan on watching it, too many emotions that need to be kept private.
Mary Happymommy says
I think that the topic is very compelling, but I wonder if it’s the best idea to turn it into a reality TV show. What about the privacy of the children involved?
Tara Liebing says
I think it is great for people who need it I don’t have cable so I may watch it on Hulu
Stacey B says
I do plan on watching it, and think it’s a great idea to give people a perspective on the other options they have available

Ellie W says
I am interested in watching it. My middle son met his wife and her 1 month old son 7 years ago. He’s the only dad my grandson has ever known, and was recently officially adopted into our family. So adoption is a subject close to my heart.
eswright18 at gmail dot com
Katie Morris Crider says
I will watch it. I like watching MTV’s Teen Mom, but this puts another spin on it which that show doesn’t always have–giving the baby up for adoption. I couldn’t imagine doing that myself, and I’m sure it would help me to have an understanding of what’s going through those girls’ minds as they come to their decisions.
Jennifer Marie says
I do hope to watch the show-sounds great!
