If you’re pregnant again and considering your options, know that you have choices beyond abortion. Parenting and adoption are both paths worth exploring, each with its own rewards and challenges.
At Bella Women’s Center, we offer free, confidential pregnancy services to help you understand all your options and make the best decision for yourself.
Parenting
Parenting is a significant commitment and requires careful thought. Providing a safe and loving environment for a child involves meeting their physical, emotional, and developmental needs. Here are some questions that may help you as you consider parenting:
- Can I provide my child with love, stability, and support?
- Can I meet my child’s needs for food, clothing, and shelter?
- Do I have a steady job and access to childcare?
- What kind of support system can I rely on?
- Will I be co-parenting with a partner, or will I be the primary caregiver?
You may not have all the answers yet, and that’s okay! No one is ever completely prepared for parenthood. It’s a journey where you’ll grow and learn along the way. Bella Women’s Center provides various resources to help you feel more confident and prepared.
Adoption
Adoption is another loving option with flexibility. You can choose the adoptive family, decide how much contact you want, and decide what level of information they’ll know about you.
The adoption process can be emotional, so consulting with an adoption counselor can help guide you through your options and connect you to support resources. Adoption is free for the expectant mother; medical, legal, and other pregnancy-related expenses are covered.
While Bella Women’s Center does not provide adoption services, we can refer you to reputable adoption agencies to help you get started.
