Finding out that you’re unexpectedly pregnant again can feel overwhelming, to say the least—especially if you previously had an abortion and don’t want another one.
While your mind is likely spinning with what-ifs right now, it’s important to realize you have other options besides abortion. These options include parenting and adoption.
This article will explore those other options—but if you’re looking to talk to someone in person or want to learn more about free pregnancy resources, contact First Choice Georgia Pregnancy Clinic today to schedule a free, confidential appointment.
Is Parenting Right for Me?
The idea of parenting might seem impossible. Maybe you’re still in school, don’t have the support of your family or partner, or don’t feel financially stable.
While it’s understandable that you’d be nervous about the thought of parenting, if you have a heart to parent, this can be a viable option—and resources are available to help you feel supported along the way.
When wondering whether parenting is right for you, it can help to ask yourself the following questions:
- Do I have a heart to parent?
- What might my life look like if I choose to parent?
- How might I feel if I choose to parent?
- How might I feel if I choose not to parent?
Is Adoption Right for Me?
What do you imagine when you consider adoption? If you’ve seen adoption in older movies, you might think of a baby being left anonymously on a doorstep. But this looks nothing like modern adoption.
Most adoptions today are open, which means that you get to choose the adoptive family and have open communication between you, them, and the child—depending on what you’re comfortable with.
When considering if adoption is right for you, it can help to ask yourself the following questions:
- What questions do I have about the adoption process?
- What might my life look like if I choose adoption? Would I want to remain involved in the child’s life?
- What worries me most about adoption?
