Helplines in Colombia.

Need help making a decision about a pregnancy? Reach out to a hotline in Colombia.

Pregnancies that are unplanned or have doubts attached to them happen almost as often as planned pregnancies. So while you may feel alone, what you're experiencing is quite common. If you relate to any of the following and you're not sure what to do next, contact one of 1 hotlines in Colombia:

• A fear of being judged if you try to talk about the pregnancy and your options.
• Feeling indecisive and like there is no ideal solution.
• Feeling low and depressed.
• Anger directed toward yourself or your partner for the pregnancy.
• Feeling concerned about whether you and your partner/the father could co-parent.
• Feeling anxious about going through with the pregnancy and giving birth.
• Strong feelings of guilt and shame about wanting to end the pregnancy.
• Being unsure of how to tell your partner or your family, or whether you should.

When you experience an unplanned pregnancy or pregnancy with doubts, there's no "normal" way to feel or respond. Some women find it easy to make a choice. Others have a really hard time accepting what's happened and deciding what to do. Whatever your feelings are, know that they are valid.

Talking to someone about your experience can help you make sense of complex feelings. Helpline counselors and volunteers in Colombia are trained to support people in an emotional crisis. They will offer a safe, judgement-free space for you to express yourself openly. They can also help you explore your options without pushing you in a certain direction.
