While it can be very exciting to find out you’re pregnant, it can also be overwhelming or even terrifying. At Alpha Center in Fort Collins, we’re here to help you consider your options regarding your pregnancy and what course is best for you. In this post, we’ll take a look at a few steps to take once you see that positive pregnancy test.
Take Time to Breathe
The first thing to do is to breathe. The shock or surprise of finding out you’re pregnant can leave your head spinning and cast doubt on the future. By taking time to relax and calm yourself, you can think more clearly about what your options are and what the next thing to do will be. In Colorado, you do not have to make a firm decision on whether to parent, adopt, or abort your pregnancy until 40 weeks.
Consider Your Options
As an expectant mother, you have options when it comes to your pregnancy. Our team is here to support you as you weigh each option and think about which one is right for you. You might be considering abortion, adoption, or raising the child yourself, but there are many things to consider with each one. It’s important to have all the information before you make your decision.
Talk With Someone You Trust
One of the best things you can do is to talk with someone you trust. That might be a friend, relative, or coworker, but it should definitely be someone you can be honest with about how you’re feeling about your pregnancy. Alpha Center is here to help you however we can, even if that’s just being a place where you can feel safe and comfortable.
