  • Feeling concerned about your financial situation if you go through with the pregnancy.
  • Being unsure of how to tell your partner or your family, or whether you should.
  • Feeling low and depressed.

  • Feeling overwhelmed by all the options and having to make a decision.
  • Feeling unprepared to go through with the pregnancy and to raise a baby.
  • Feeling unsure about the options that are available to you.
