STUFF YOU SHOULD KNOW<br />

What to do if you are pregnant: questions to ask yourself<br />

• Which choice(s) could I live with?<br />

• Which choice(s) would be impossible for me?<br />

• How would each choice affect my everyday life?<br />

• What would each choice mean to the people closest to me?<br />

• What is going on in my life?<br />

• What are my plans for the future?<br />

• What are my spiritual and moral beliefs?<br />

• What do I believe is best for me in the long run<br />

• What can I afford?<br />

Talk about your feelings with your partner, someone in your family, a<br />

clergyperson, or a trusted friend. All family planning clinics have specially<br />

trained counselors. These counselors can talk with you about your<br />

options. Your counselor will try to make sure that you are not being<br />

pressured into any decision against your will. You may bring your partner,<br />

your parents, or someone else, if you wish.<br />
