Once you’ve confirmed your pregnancy with pregnancy testing and an ultrasound, what’s next? Your next best step is to be informed about your pregnancy options. We’re here to walk you through this process and provide a safe and non-judgmental place to learn.
Be Informed of Your Options
You have three potential pregnancy options: abortion, adoption, and parenting. It’s important to weigh the benefits and disadvantages of your options.
Abortion
How far along you are in pregnancy will determine what abortion options you qualify for. There are risks to both types of abortions: medical and surgical abortion.
At A Choice for Women, we provide medically accurate data to help you understand what you can expect from each type of abortion procedure and the risks involved.
Adoption
Adoption has drastically improved over the years, allowing birth mothers to have more of a say in the process. There is more than one type of adoption plan to choose from, including:
- Open adoption: The most popular option, this plan allows you to choose the adoptive parents, form a relationship with the family, and regularly communicate through visits, phone calls, or letters.
- Semi-open adoption: A semi-open adoption provides communication with the family, but it is conducted by a third party, such as an adoption attorney or agency.
- Closed adoption: This plan is the most private. With a closed adoption, your identifying records are sealed, and you do not communicate with the adoptive family. Your information remains anonymous.
Choose the adoption plan that makes sense to you. We can help you learn more about adoption today.
Parenting
How will I financially support a child? Can I continue school? These may be some big questions you have regarding parenting.
Parenting may seem impossible, but you may be surprised at the available parenting support if you decide to move forward with this option. Motherhood may come more naturally to you than expected, as well. Our knowledgeable counselors can discuss parenthood with you today.
