Are There More Options Than Abortion?

February 21, 2025

An abortion can have physical and emotional consequences, and you may think it’s not worth risking your health and wellness. Abortion is not your only pregnancy option.

You do have two different options: making an adoption plan and choosing to parent. Let’s talk about the potential benefits of both. 

Making an Adoption Plan

Placing your child for adoption can be the right decision. In some situations, creating an adoption plan can be in everyone’s best interest. The good news is that you can make all the decisions as an expectant mother. 

Benefits of Adoption

• Your child has greater opportunities for their future.
• By choosing the adoptive couple, you have the assurance your child is loved and cared for.
• You avoid having your child potentially enter foster care.

You pay nothing for adoption services, including your medical and legal expenses. In some cases, you can receive payment for other pregnancy-related expenses such as rent, food, clothing, etc. 

Choosing to Parent

Like adoption, parenthood is a life-altering decision. It is challenging but also extremely rewarding. You may have a desire for parenting as you explore your options. We can discuss your situation and needs to help you decide. Here are some of the pros and cons of choosing to parent.

Benefits of Parenting
