Discovering your girlfriend or partner is facing an unplanned pregnancy can create many questions and fears. Pregnancy is not just a women’s health issue. Understanding your role and responsibility is critical. That’s why we have male coaches and programs designed specifically to help you understand your choices and next steps. Over 60 percent of women say the father of the baby as the most influential person in their pregnancy decision.
You May Be Asking:
- What are my rights?
- How will this pregnancy affect me?
- What if we have different views on what to do next?
- Is abortion the best option?
- What can I do if I don’t agree with the decision my girlfriend/partner is making?
Most men like to make decisions based on facts. At Hand ‘n Hand we can provide the facts you need:
- Is she really pregnant? She can a get lab-quality pregnancy test and confirm results through a referred limited ultrasound.
- How far along is she? An ultrasound will determine the baby’s age. It will also confirm if the pregnancy is in her uterus. This is important since 20% of all pregnancies may end in miscarriage.
- What are the options, and what role do you play in the decision?
While the pregnancy choice is ultimately hers, it’s a decision that involves you both. If you think she may be pregnant, you can come in together and get the facts – including how abortion might affect you. You are not alone and your support may help her with her pregnancy options. We have trained client advocates and medical professionals who can help.
