Oxygen’s “I’m Having Their Baby” Season Two ~ Giveaway

This post is sponsored by Oxygen, however, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

In season one of Oxygen’s I’m Having Their Baby, fans followed the stories of 12 young women who struggled with unplanned pregnancies and the decision of whether or not to place their baby in the hands of another family.The hour-long docu-series provided an intimate and emotional look at adoption by telling the too-often untold story through the eyes of the birth mother.

The personal stories shared by these women are heart wrenching, and I easily felt myself drawn into their stories. As a mom to two girls, I cannot imagine the overwhelming decision to do what each of these moms believed to be right for their child – to give up that child to be raised by another family.

Following the story of these young girls provides a different perspective to the adoption process. In an open and candid forum, we see the impact this decision makes on the girls, the families and their friends. It also gave me a new appreciation for the struggle that accompanies such a decision.

A year or more has passed since the moms in season one gave up their babies and now Oxygen is sharing a web series that follows up with some of the families featured in season one. Two of these webisodes are below. “I’m Having Their Baby: Raising Nayamah” catches up with mom Jamie and baby Nayamah and “I’m Having Their Baby: Raising Vivienne” catches up with mom Mercedes and baby Vivienne. It is really remarkable to watch the follow up story of these families to see the birth mom’s strength and resolve that they have made the right decision for their baby. It is also interesting to see that both of these families have built a loving relationship between the birth family and adoptive family. I actually watched the follow up series before seeing the original stories of these two moms, and after seeing the follow up felt compelled to watch the original episode.

Get ready for season two by watching both webispodes below. (Don’t worry, they are doing great!)

/>Season two of Oxygen’s I’m Having Their Baby begins June 12, 2013 10 pm EST/PST. The new season will continue on this path, delving deeper into the lives of birth mothers entering the adoption process, their family and friends affected by their decision and in some cases the potential adoptive couples.

If you missed any of season one, you can catch up by watching six full-length episodes on Oxygen.com/baby. Once you have caught up on season one and watched the rest of the web series, check out a sneak peek of season 2.

    My favorite part is that she does not regret her decision and that Jamie has changed her life and that her children seem to have adjusted. I love that both families are working together to do what is best for everyone, they genuinely seem to be happy and comfortable together. I expect lots of moments of courage and inspirational stories from watching the new season. It is fabulous to see truly selfless acts.

    It took a lot of love and courage for Jamie to give up Nayamah. But she knew that she was not going to be able to raise her, and she did the best thing for the baby by giving the baby up for a adoption to a loving couple! I think it makes Jamie feel so much better when she can see Nayamah and see how she is doing. Great episode!

    The thoughtful process of maintaining contact between the birthparents and the adopted child/family is developing into a really positive experience. So different from the sheltered almost hidden adoptions of the past. Feelings are upfront and not being repressed.

    I found it surprising to me that she gave her 4th child up,for adoption. I wrongly assumed that it would be her first child, but was suprised that she has three at home with her. It makes me wonder if Namayeh will react differently as an adult knowing she has siblings that stayed with biological mother. Nonetheless, she is in a loving, healthy stable home that has the financial means and stability wanted.

The relationship is great between the two families and is so relaxed and they bring Nayamah to visit her birth mother and siblings and that Jaimie was wise enough to get her oldest daughter in counseling because she didn’t understand the adoption

    I liked that mercedes didn’t want to be a teen mom and opted for adoption so that she can go to school

    Some women give up their child not because they dont want them but because they do love them and want them to have a better life than they can give them. People that cant have children now can have the chance to adopt a child and be happy. You dont have to give birth to that child to beable to love him or her. We just never know what we may do.

    My aunt Lisa and uncle Joe were birth parents for my aunt Cindy and uncle Russell, who could not get pregnant at the time. Many years later, my aunt Cindy and uncle Russell were able to have a son of their own, but my aunt Cindy soon developed cancer and passed away. They think the hormones from having her son might’ve triggered the cancer growth. My cousin did not learn that her real parents were my other aunt Lisa and uncle Joe, until years after my aunt Cindy passed. It was a pretty rough time, and my cousin actually ended up not talking to our family since then. Needless to say that people might have good intentions, but it can backfire.
