Around half of pregnancies are unplanned. If your pregnancy is unplanned, there are three options available to you:
- to continue the pregnancy and raise your child
- to end the pregnancy with an abortion
- to continue the pregnancy and consider adoption or fostering.
You may need support with these choices. You may know how you feel, or you may be working it out. You might want practical information about these choices. Support is available, whatever your own situation and feelings.
