Any advice for a difficult situation involving adoption?

So the baby has to suffer the rest of his/her life, due to a mistake you and your boyfriend made? That's not really fair to the baby. You don't have to put the baby up for adoption. There's another option, like raising the baby YOURSELF. You don't need a man to do this. You just have to work extra hard to accomplish your goals as a woman, student, and mother. Yea, it's going to be hard but it's the consequence of your actions. You can't just give the baby away and expect everything to go back to normal. you will have a hole in your heart that nothing can ever fill.
