Facing an unexpected pregnancy is hard, and getting the courage to tell your boyfriend and family that you are pregnant can be even more difficult. You are not alone.
If you need support sharing the news, we at Parke Vermillion Community Pregnancy Center are here to come alongside you along this journey. In this blog, we want to share some tips on sharing the news of your pregnancy. You can do this.
Be Sure of Your Pregnancy
First and foremost, confirm your pregnancy with free pregnancy testing at our center after receiving a home pregnancy test. There is always a chance you could have received inaccurate results if taken at the wrong time.
Our pregnancy tests have two advantages: tests are free, and they have staff who will gladly talk with you about your next steps. Our compassionate staff is here to talk to you about your pregnancy options and next steps. Contact us today for help.
Sharing Your Pregnancy News
There are a couple of ways to prepare to share the news once you know for sure that you’re pregnant. Here are some practical ways to go into this situation:
- Remember that you have the final say in your pregnancy
- Pick a good time! Try a weekend when they are off work and in rest mode
- Be open and honest about your pregnancy situation
- Give them space to respond and process the news
- Their reaction doesn’t define who you are
