What to Expect

If you are pregnant or think you might be pregnant, you may be feeling a little scared and unsure of what you should do right now. Would you like to share your thoughts and concerns with someone who will listen to you and provide clear, concise and compassionate information in a confidential and non-judgmental manner. If so, our support team is here and ready to assist you.

You are not the first woman to experience an unplanned pregnancy and you won’t be the last. Many women have sat where you are sitting and have felt what you are feeling. For a lot of women, the thought of parenting can be overwhelming. You may be thinking, “I’m too young to be a mom” or wondering, “How will I be able to afford to raise a child?” Parenting can be the most challenging yet one of the most fulfilling experiences of your life. Few women who parent their children regret their decision. Although you may initially feel like you are giving up your own dreams and goals, many people feel motivated by their new responsibility and seek to achieve even more in their lives than they would have otherwise.
