PREGNANCY

You Have Choices

Pregnancy can happen in so many different situations, planned or unplanned. You have choices when it comes to your pregnancy and the most important one is whether or not you want to have a baby right now.

If you do: You should start taking prenatal vitamins and eating healthy so your child is born healthy. Make an appointment with an Obstetrician as soon as possible.

If you don’t: There are multiple options if you don’t want a baby or can’t support a child right now. This includes abortion and adoption.Learn more about birth control using this link:

Know Your Resources

Planned Parenthood is a great resource for all kinds of health issues, particularly regarding sexual health, relationships, and positive body image. With Medicaid, you can go to Planned Parenthood for birth control and annual well-woman exams — covered for free, without a copay — even if Planned Parenthood is not included as an in-network provider in your Medicaid plan.

If you ever need to talk, please call either of these numbers:
