You may be going through a whirlwind of emotions and then you're wondering how you will support your partner. An unplanned pregnancy is not easy, but you are not alone.
We want to help you through this unexpected journey and come alongside you as you strive to support your partner. It's not only women who need support during this time, but men as well.
Take In The News
The first step to working through an unplanned pregnancy is taking in the news yourself. Process all the mixed emotions you may have with someone you trust. Give yourself time and space to fully process the news before talking with your partner.
Processing the new yourself, apart from your partner, will help avoid conflict as emotions can get messy.
How To Support Your Partner
Next, you will want to take time to connect with your partner. Listen to her needs and give her space to talk without any response. She is probably feeling a lot of the same emotions you are.
Try your best to navigate the conversations and give your full attention. When the time is right, let her know that she is not alone and that you are there to talk whenever she needs. This will bring her peace and comfort on this challenging journey. It's best to not pressure her into any certain decision - but decide together.
