Unplanned Pregnancy: 5 Reasons to Speak with a Pregnancy Counselor
ONE.
Informed Decision.
You will be educated on all three options: adoption, parenting, and abortion. Knowing what each choice looks like, and the long- term truths of these choices, may help you decide which option is the best for you. Making a life-changing decision without knowing the facts can lead to an unwarranted and potentially painful outcome. Your Pregnancy Counselor will encourage you to think about your life as well as your child’s life. She can help you look at your goals for the future and discuss your options with these goals in mind.
TWO.
Without Coercion.
Facing an unplanned pregnancy is already difficult and overwhelming. Having someone to talk to that you feel you can trust and share your feelings with is crucial. A Lifeline Pregnancy Counselor’s goal is to present your options to you as objectively as possible so that you, the expectant mother, feel comfortable making a decision.
THREE.
Advocacy.
Who wants to face an unplanned pregnancy alone? Your Pregnancy Counselor is a support system and encourager. She is going to have you and your child’s best interest at heart. She is there to serve you through education, truth, and resources. As you are considering your options, your Pregnancy Counselor will be able to help you think through what each of those options would look like based on your specific situation.
FOUR.
One-on-one Relationship.
A Lifeline Pregnancy Counselor’s role is to serve you holistically. Choosing to engage in a one-on-one relationship with her, you can communicate your needs and desires in order to connect you to resources that will be able to help and truth that will give you peace. It is through this relationship that you are able to feel certain about making decisions for you and your child- based on your desires as the mother.
FIVE.
Loved With a Greater Love.
In the midst of life’s hardships, hope seems distant or invisible. A Lifeline Pregnancy Counselor’s passion is to exhibit Christ’s love to expectant mothers. Each counselor has the desire and privilege of sharing the only true hope in Christ. It is through this desire for you to know true love and hope through Christ that she is able to love you well in the counseling process.
“And he Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you were healed.” – 1 Peter 2:24
