We Can Help
You likely felt many emotions when you first wondered about pregnancy.
Do these symptoms really mean I’m pregnant? If I’m pregnant, what will my family and friends think? What will I do?
Take a deep breath and know that no matter what you’re facing, you don’t have to take the next steps alone. We are here to help.
Get The Facts First
Your first step is to take a pregnancy test. You may have common symptoms or “have a hunch.”
However, certain symptoms can indicate other health conditions, stress, hormonal imbalances, etc. And if you have an irregular cycle, you can’t rely on a missed period when determining when to test for pregnancy.
If you do suspect you’re pregnant, here are symptoms to watch for:
- Missed period
- Nausea and/or vomiting
- Breast tenderness
- Frequent urination
- Mood swings
- Fatigue
If you have any of these symptoms or recently had sexual intercourse, it’s time to take a test. Home pregnancy tests are typically reliable if taken at the appropriate time.
The Mayo Clinic recommends waiting a day or two after a missed period to take a test. You can also wait several weeks after intercourse.
We provide pregnancy testing to get an initial result and determine how to proceed.
My Result Was Positive: What’s Next?
A positive test alone does not confirm a pregnancy. You need an ultrasound to verify key details and move forward.
The Open Door offers ultrasounds after a positive pregnancy test with us. We’ll supply the information you need and explore your options together afterward.
We don’t profit from your decision and will provide accurate information on parenting, adoption, and abortion. You deserve to make an educated choice in a non-judgmental environment.
