It’s completely normal to feel anxious about how a partner might respond to an unplanned pregnancy. You may be unsure about the relationship, worried about conflict, or afraid the news could change things between you. These feelings are real, and you’re not the only one experiencing them.
At Abria Pregnancy Resources, you have a safe, confidential space to talk through your concerns and explore your next steps with support, not pressure.
Understanding Your Feelings
Worry about a partner’s reaction can come from many places: previous disagreements, uncertainty about their readiness, financial stress, or pressure surrounding big decisions. You may even be imagining worst-case scenarios simply because you don’t yet know how the conversation will unfold.
Taking a moment to breathe, gather accurate information, and consider what you need can help you approach the discussion with more confidence.
You Don’t Have to Tell Them Alone
Everyone handles these conversations differently. Some people prefer to share the news privately, while others feel more comfortable with a supportive third party present.
Abria’s trained staff can help you decide when and how to talk with your partner and, if you choose, can help facilitate that conversation in a calm, respectful environment. You deserve to feel safe, heard, and supported.
First, Confirm Your Pregnancy
Before involving anyone else, it’s important to confirm your pregnancy with accurate medical information. Abria offers no-cost pregnancy testing and limited ultrasounds to help determine whether the pregnancy is viable, how far along you may be, and pregnancy location to help you understand what options are available.
Having clear information can make the discussion with your partner more grounded and less overwhelming.
Exploring Your Options: Together or Independently
Whether or not your partner reacts the way you hope, you still deserve access to compassionate support and unbiased information.
Abria offers education on all your pregnancy options, material support resources, and emotional care to help you think through parenting, adoption, or next steps in your situation, without judgment.
If fear is holding you back, you don’t have to face it alone. Schedule a confidential appointment with Abria Pregnancy Resources today. Our team is here to listen, support, and walk with you at your pace.
