Men and women who find themselves in an unexpected or unwanted pregnancy situation usually are very scared and don't know what to do.
First, it is very important to determine if you really are pregnant. Take a home test, visit a local pregnancy center, or contact your doctor. Most pregnancy testing will be accurate 7 to 10 days after conception.
You should talk with someone you trust, such as a family member, clergy member, or friend about your situation.
Consider your options and think through the consequences of each option.
There are three options:

Remember, crisis situations are temporary. You will get through this one day at a time by each moment doing the next right thing to do. We encourage men and women to consider the long term plan, and to get help to support you through those decisions. Abortion seems like a quick fix, but it is not. There are no quick fixes. There are long term decisions and help available to make decisions that will allow you to make good decisions for you and your baby.
