Consider Your Choices
With an unplanned pregnancy you have the power to make an informed choice!
You can meet with one of our friendly, safe, nonjudgmental client advocates and medical personnel
as you look at the following options:
Abortion
You might be considering an abortion because you feel pressured from the father of the baby, family and friends and/or your life goals are being threatened.
You deserve to know which abortion procedure you will need and what is involved with this medical procedure. Our staff can offer you all the information you need.
We can answer other questions such as:
- Will it hurt?
- How will I feel afterwards?
- Am I really pregnant?
- How far along am I?
- At what point in my pregnancy is it too late to have an abortion?
- Will I be able to get pregnant later in life?
- How will an abortion affect my relationship?
- How do I obtain a pregnancy verification?
Taking the time to look at the following abortion alternatives won't prevent you from an abortion decision.
Parenting
You may have more questions than answers about parenting or maybe the thought of becoming a parent seems impossible to you at this time. We've talked to hundreds of clients who are concerned about things like:
- My husband or boyfriend doesn't want the baby, but I do
- (for men) My girlfriend or wife doesn't want the baby, but I do
- I can't tell my family
- How will I finish school?
- How will I continue working?
- Where will I live?
- I can't afford a child
- I'm too young
We can talk about all these issues with you so you can decide if parenting is right for you.
Adoption
Adoption can feel like an impossible option! Why would you want to be pregnant 9 months and then place you baby with another couple?
Taking a closer look at the adoption option will empower your ability to choose.
- You can pursue your life goals
- You will not have to parent before you are ready
- You will have the freedom to decide if you want a long-term relationship with the baby’s father
- You can choose the family with whom to place your child
- With adoption you can change your mind; abortion is final
Adoption can be open, semi-open or closed. You make that choice! If you’re interested in adoption, we can help you with adoption referrals.
