Finding out you’re pregnant can bring up many different emotions – perhaps you’re feeling overwhelmed, confused, or uncertain about what to do next. Whether this news came as a surprise or you’ve been thinking about it for a while, it’s completely normal to experience a mix of feelings.
You might be carrying this news quietly on your own, or perhaps feeling pressured by others’ opinions. Remember: this is your journey, and you need time, space, information and support to make a decision you are comfortable with.
