If you’ve had an abortion before, you might be feeling very conflicted about being pregnant again. Maybe you don’t want to go through that experience again, but you’re unsure of what to do this time. You’re not alone, and you have options.

At Bella Women’s Center, we offer free pregnancy services such as pregnancy testing, ultrasounds, options counseling, and more to help you make a decision that feels right for you.

What Are My Alternatives?

If abortion isn’t what you want, you still have choices. You can choose to parent or explore adoption. Both paths come with challenges, but they also offer opportunities for hope, growth, and a future that aligns with your goals.

Parenting: Can I Do This?

Parenting may feel like something you’re just not ready for, especially if your situation isn’t what you expected. You might wonder:

• Will I have the support I need?
• How will this impact my life and future?
• Can I provide for a child right now?
• What will my life look like?

These are normal questions, and you don’t have to figure them out by yourself. There are resources available to help—whether it’s financial assistance, parenting classes, mentorship, or practical support like diapers and baby supplies. Many women who choose to parent find that with the right help, they’re stronger and more capable than they thought.

If you’re unsure about parenting, let’s talk through it together. You might have more support than you realize.

Is Adoption the Right Path for Me?

If parenting doesn’t feel like the best choice for you, adoption is another option that allows you to give your child a future while staying true to your own.

One of the biggest misconceptions about adoption is that it means giving up control, but that’s not the case. As the expectant mother, you have the power to:

• Choose the adoptive family
• Decide how much (or how little) contact you want
• Create a plan that works best for you and your baby

Adoption today is flexible, and you can shape the experience in a way that feels right. Whether you want an open adoption with ongoing communication, a semi-open plan with occasional updates, or a closed adoption for complete privacy, you have options.

You’re Not Alone

No matter what you decide, you don’t have to walk this path alone. Bella Women’s Center is here to offer judgment-free support, answer your questions, and help you explore your options in a safe, confidential environment.
