CALL US TODAY! TEXT US For Men Four little words that have changed your life forever: “I think I’m pregnant.” Who knew this phrase would cause so much confusion? Where do you start? Where To Begin Your first step should be to come with her to the CPC for a free pregnancy test. Even if she’s taken an at-home pregnancy test, she’ll need to confirm the result with a medical grade pregnancy test. If the test is positive, our medical staff may recommend a free limited ultrasound. This will show if the pregnancy is viable (growing), how long she’s been pregnant, and if the pregnancy is located in the right place. You and your partner will need all of this information to determine your next step. The Do’S 1) Listen. The situation involves more than just you. 2) Stay calm. She needs your support now more than ever. 3) Talk about it. Talk with each other as well as with your parents and others close to the situation. Hiding the news from people who can genuinely help you only increases the stress. 4) Gather all the facts. The medical professionals and peer counselors at the CPC can help answer any questions you have. 5) Express yourself honestly. It is normal to have feelings of anger, frustration, and fear. Make sure she knows she is not alone. The Don’Ts 1) Don’t bail. The more you run from this, the harder it becomes to think and act clearly. 2) Don’t pressure her. You will do well to work together as a team. 3) Don’t forget. You have an active role. Listen to input as well as give your thoughts.
