If you are pregnant and you are not sure what to do, just pause. 

Perhaps you are weighing the pregnancy options available for you and cannot see how you can accomplish your personal goals with a baby.  Avoid making a quick, emotional, and irreversible decision that you may later regret and wish you could retract.  Talking to someone about your choices and your situation often provides perspective that can help you make an informed, thoughtful, and rational decision.  When facing an unplanned pregnancy, none of your options will be easy or simple, so taking the time to consider the facts will be worthwhile.

Gateway Women’s Care offers free pregnancy tests and free education on all of your options.  You may also qualify for a free limited ultrasound which will provide important information as you ponder your decision. Making an informed decision about your unplanned pregnancy necessitates receiving accurate pregnancy information and giving thought to all the facts.  The choice is yours.

Our client advocates and nurses are here to educate and support you.  As one of our clients said, “There is no judgement here.”  We are here to listen and provide you with a warm, safe environment to share confidentially what fears and obstacles you are facing.

 

If you feel like a baby will interrupt your dreams, you are not alone.
