Parenting

Parenting can create new and unexpected challenges. But it can also bring newfound joy as you create a relationship unlike any other.

An unplanned pregnancy can make you question which option is right for you. If you’re considering parenting, you may be unsure where to begin.

This option may not seem possible right now, especially if your situation is difficult. However, resources and support can help make this a possibility.

Birthright of Greater Norwalk can discuss parenting and how we can help you every step of the way.

How to Make an Informed Decision

It’s easy to wonder how you can choose parenting. You may have financial worries, relationship issues, and other concerns. It may seem like there are too many obstacles.

We’re here to help you find clarity. Asking yourself these questions can help you develop an idea of what parenting would look like and what you’d need to succeed:

What would I be most excited about with parenting?
What would I be most concerned about with parenting?
What resources do I need to make this decision?
How can I build a strong support system?
Will my child’s father be involved?

Support is available. We’ll answer your questions, listen to your concerns, and develop a plan if you’re interested in parenting.
